I learn double pedal on my Tama Iron Cobras from the 80s single chain and will not break ... it takes lots of abuse and the pedals are still alive and well strongly recommended ! I changed to Axis long boards later on when I could afford a used pair and didn’t look back..
Great video ! Can’t wait for pedal settings !! Maybe pedal settings for each technique and style could be good too ;-) I still can’t find the right settings for iron cobra for heel toe that I’m using to get the notes even and great power :-D
Hi, great vid thanks...i love the Speed king..but its got very little power...whatt Direct Drive double kick would yiu recommend ? Is the iron cobra double chain a good pedal ?
What double bass pedal would you recommend? I've played with "DXP Dxp Double Bass Drum Pedal Drum Pedals DXP DOUBLE BASS DRUM PEDAL" for a year now but I want something smoother and just better quality over all. I know it's about personal preference most of the time but any suggestions would be great. Thanks!
For smoother feeling I suggest you to try some Direct Drives. Not like Axis of course.. but you can try Dyna Sync and Demon Drive firstly. Dyna Sync can be a good transition pedal from a pedal like DXP to a direct drive.
Thank you, this video was really helpful as always. So I have a question. I wanna buy either an Iron Cobra or a Speed Cobra. I will mostly be playing extreme metal and wanna reach high speeds, but I also like heavier pedals. What do you suggest I do? Thanks, and I wanna add I really appreciate your videos, great series.
I have a DW 5002 double pedal from the mid-90's (and hi-hat and remote hi-hat). It has a single chain drive and the Delta I hinge. The hinge does not allow any lateral movement whatsoever. IMHO it's the best hinge DW (or anyone) ever made, better than the current Delta III hinge. Why DW ever stopped making it, I'll never understand. I also disagree somewhat with your assessment of double chain drive pedals. Nearly every double chain drive pedal I've ever seen has some amount of lateral movement. Two chains reduce the amount somewhat (compared to single chain), but if there is any amount of play in the hinge, and there almost always is, there will be lateral movement in the footboard, even if it's only a fraction of a millimeter (which still isn't as good as my single chain DWs). Even the (older version) Trick pedals I tested had a tiny amount of lateral movement. I don't know if I agree that double chain drive is inherently smoother and more responsive - it's difficult to say without testing the exact same pedal with both drives. And the fact that it's more mass results in a different feel that I personally dislike. Personally, I think Jojo Mayer got it right - nylon strap and a fully circular cam. Low mass, low maintenance (don't need to oil, won't ever squeak), and the most even feel from the beginning to the end of a stroke, because the center of gravity of the cam is fixed at its center, not moving back and forth around the shaft. (I hate the feel of direct drive pedals. The only time I played one I liked was when I tested the PDP BOA at NAMM. But when I tried it again at a store, it felt terrible, and I couldn't figure out how to adjust it to make it feel like the one I played at NAMM, so I gave up on it. Good thing, since it was prone to breaking.)
Thanks for your comment. It changes on every drummer. Strap, direct or chain drives.. but about smoothness and responsiveness of the double chains I can say that yes they are more responsive than single chains in general but as you said 'smoothness' may change drummer to drummer. Good point, thank you.
You didn't mention the mainadvantage of single chain: Lighter feel and quicker response. As for strength, I don't know anyone who has broken a chain on a single chain pedal. If double chains made sense, you would see bicycles with double chains. There is absolutely no need for a double chain. Overkill.
A very nice person and a talented drummer. But I can’t understand his English(?). “Linert camps” I’m guessing : linear cam(?). “Try puzzles”... I’m guessing : pedals. Super distracting to decipher instead of immersion into the content. :(
Thank you🙏🏼 you can watch with English subtitles if you are distracted with my pronunciation. As you read in the descriptions subtitles are available in 3 different language.
How flawless he went into petting the cat - love it ❤️
best info about pedals ever saw
Great teaching, very thorough, clear, and easy to understand. Metal heads and cat's seem to be a common thing. My cat gave you two paws up!
Thank you🙏🏼 And say thanks to your cat too😄
@@ErceArslan Haha! For sure brother.
Really enjoying this lesson series, thanks for making it!
What's up with the 5th weird looking pedal on the far left?
LOOLL
I've been trying to find a video like this... thank you
Thanks to this footage i can know conclude that 1 out ot 5 pedals is a cat 😂
Very good video as always! I’m really digging this serie
Thanks for these videos! You cover every topic in a thorough, academic manner that is easy to follow and practical. I appreciate it.
Hi, The cat stole the show! : )
Really useful info abt the pedals
Great video. Thanks from Brazil!

Instant like for the cat

Fantastic !!! Thanks !!
Can you tell me Brother Erce where can I buy the Tama Iron Cat pedals?
You can only create it by yourself. No company is selling it😄
Erce Arslan 🤣 bless you brother. I am a cat lover too. Keep on drumming and teaching. Appreciate what you have done. 👍🏽👍🏽
Aunty Semite Iron Claw go for it! I had the Cobras sturdy pedal from the 80s wouldn’t mind the Iron Cat Claws 😂
I thought that strap drive came before (single) chain drive pedals?
Thank you for this
I love how the cat is just flexing on his pedals 😂😂😂
Thanks for sharing.
Hi, great vid thanks...i love the Speed king..but its got very little power...whatt Direct Drive double kick would yiu recommend ? Is the iron cobra double chain a good pedal ?
What do you thinks better all around pedal iron cobra or eliminator redline?
great content. Love
great im getting longboards hahahaha, excelent video.
Which pedal does the cat prefer?

Thank you very much🙏🏼 Maybe you can try Trick, Darvin and Czarcie Kopyto pedals
Latest iron cobra and pearl redline can do it all.
What a cool kitty
Hey man , tama kale dyna- sync dual pedal diş you heard it ??
Of course :)
Sonraki video ne zaman geliyor ? :)
Bir aksilik çıkmazsa haftaya:)

I like belt drives
Hellcat pedals. That’s a rare one.
Filming a cat is the number 1 technique to get more views on the internet.
And filming two cats could be better. Did ya notice (footboard)? Seriously, I'm gonna watch all your videos Erce, you really know what you teach.

The cat 👍
And strap
So no direct drive? Ok....
A very nice person and a talented drummer. But I can’t understand his English(?).
“Linert camps” I’m guessing : linear cam(?).
