Sonor Giant-Step is cool... but...

It's fine to use the likes of the dualist or sonor's giant step to free up your left foot for playing other things...
But making heavily triggered kick drums sound like a small calibre submachine gun isn't really all that great.

And with that beater angle of his, I doubt his foot twitching will get much volume out of a solely acoustic kit.

W00t... if this Aussie dude ain't cool, I dunnoe what is.
Check out how he used the giant step on the plastic temple block at around 1:15min...
And towards 2:38min, the beat sounds almost like the demo vid in Duallist's website.

I am still whacked out at that stick juggling thing he did near the end...

Sad that youtube ain't got much on Chris Brien, from the drummer vid I posted in the second thread.

His homepage is more than enough for sure.

do they carry these pedals in singapore? looks damn cool haha.

I remember there's a Sonor dealer in Eunos or something...
They had the pedals since 5 years ago...

Then again, contact Sonor and ask who is their local distributor in Sg...

 

[drummerboi]

Yes, there is a Sonor dealer at Eunos, don't know whether it existed til now or not. But for what I know if I am not wrong, things there are pretty steep in the prices so you may want to check it out first.

Yeah... Sonor's very expensive... people in the Netherlands are complaining about Sonor's hardware price as bad as they are with Axis pedals... and Axis pedals there cost almost USD$1000... LOL
