  • In today's video, I talk about how my old double kick pedal was starting to fall apart, and no matter how I set it, it was starting to fly back into my ankles and hurt a lot.
    I replaced it with a direct drive pedal from Thomann - their own "Millennium" brand - which has turned out to be quite good!

    So how's this pedal compared to Iron cobra? I play faster stuffs around 220 BPM and can I do that comfortably with it?

      I actually have both! And it’s different between the two I like the direct drive because it gets rid of the chain slack / slap there’s a company called acd unlimited and they make a direct drive conversion for the open cobras I’m going to be getting them very soon. Like the pedal return spring on the iron cobras but for this pedal being so cheap I got it just for fun it’s very nice once you duel it in but it’s almost a tie for the two. I play a lot of metal and pop punk they both are great

      Good for you, don’t think that’s the right attitude though. You can do well with poor equipment, but you’re working against what you have- why not take the barriers away and make life and learning easier on yourself?
