Axis is good but comes with a price. You can have very good control on a cobra and it's also quite affordable as compared to dualist and axis. I think it's really up to your personal preference.

not to mention Dennis Chambers, Chad Smith etc...etc... if u guys happened to watch Modern Drummers 2005 DVD, featuring Jojo Mayer with his band Nerve... if u watch closely, Jojo is using a modified Pearl Elims pedal. And everybody knows he is a Sonor's endorsee all this while.chud said:

hi guys,
got a pedal tunning question.
my pedal seems a bit stiff, as in got a bit of reaction time error -.- e.g i do double strokes on it, sometime the first stroke will rebound like a fraction of a second slow then my 2nd THUMP will kinda like hit 'air'
hope u guys understand what i mean XD how should i tune to solve this problem XD
btw they are a pair of peace velocity doule pedals, the above mentioned are occuring on the right one when i choose not to double pedal.
thanks

Hi, I think you might need to play around with the tension. Your last pedal...are they loose or tight? You will need sometime to get used to new pedals....by right, if your technique is good, you should be able to play without such problems regardless of settings....its just a matter of whether the setting is 'comfy' or not. When you've done enough work with your feet, they sensitize to new settings quite fast...as in they should be able to adjust to play what is needed regardless of setting....but that and comfort are 2 seperate issues....For example, I may be at a gig using a rented pedal with a tight tension and rusted nut....I will still be able to pull off a fast samba groove....but I may not feel comfortable cos I usually practice on medium tensioned pedals....
I suggest you bring down your practice tempo and give yourself time to get used to the pedals.

erm sorry last pedal means? my left pedal is slightly more lose than my right but thats pretty fine.
yea i thought that it might be a case of not comfy or fatigue too, hence i tried a couple of times with fresh legs, but that problem still kinda exist once in a while. For what i feel from itis really the reaction of the pedal, like what i state about in whichthe pedal doesnt reacts back fast enough on occasions to enable the execution of the 2ns stroke. It SHOULD be a problemof tension, but i dunno whether to tighten of losen the spring tension to solve this problem XD
thanks!

My 2 cents Based on pedals i have tried.
Iron Cobras - sensitive
Peace Velocity - Exceptional
Axis - Sensitive as well
Yamaha Flying Dragon - Good for fast playing
Pearl Eliminators - Good For fast footwork and probably my most preferred
Double pedals.
DW 5000 - Equaly as good as Elims
But it All boils down to how your feel, whether u like fast foot work or u want it to be sensitive or tight. So u really have to play around till you find the right pedals, who knows, maybe you will like the low end pedals.
