Just want to add a correction. The pearl red line pedal. The foot board can be adjusted with out moving the beater angle. I own the 2052c double pedal and love them

4:57 That's what I thought. No wonder that is a great pedal from DW, but I had to choose the Iron Cobras. They have lasted for more than 11 years and without having to replace any single part, the consistency is god like. Been playing 4-5 hours 7 days a week to this day. Absolutely love the Iron Cobras.

It never happens and isn't supposed to happen if you're playing correctly. DW9000 has some compromises because it is mechanically magnificent, more than user friendly.

very good comparison! i play tama iron cobra hp 900p since 22 years! never break anything ....top gear!

All are really nice pedals, but I’ll take the Eliminator all day long and twice on Sundays. Phenomenal video!

I mainly use the Pearl Demon Chain and the Pearl Eliminator Redline! 😍

I'm staying with my 78 phonic pedal and the small tab Speed King. But I now know how the bass pedal has evolved since I bought these. Very informative video.

The description of the DW9000 is completely wrong. The tension spring is placed directly onto the cam because it allows to transfer the energy directly to the beater. Not to be protected from the hardware. This is the only pedal on the market with such a technology, that's why it is so unique and smooth.

This guy is basically just reading the brochure for each pedal. You can move the chain on the 5000 to adjust the pedal height independent of the beater angle on all 4 models. It's not as easy as the 9000, you have to pull the master link and push the pin out but it can be done.

Nice review! Would like to have seen the Tama Dyna-Sync included at the hi end.

Ive had a Pearl Eliminator for almost 20 years now, really like it. the footboard height can be adjusted independently though. You adjust the chain above the cam, it slides back and forth a little bit, maybe not as far as some others though. Thinking about the new Tama Iron Cobra 900 pedal though and retiring my old Eliminator.

great video!!! thank you!

10 ago, after a while with some Pearl Pedals, I switched to Axis - or in Germany „A“ Pedal…I was very impressed and I loved these things! Expensive but outstanding!

I like the Tama Speed Cobras best

I played the 5000 for 25 years but switched recently to the Yamaha F9 and find it absolutely superb. I typically don't like over-engineered pedals but this one's an exception because it's just so well made and exceptionally easy to adjust.

It`s good that you got rid of the overpriced one.

nice review! i had own 3 of the list, Eliminator, Iron Cobra 900 and now im using Yamaha FP9500, sometimes with the surface is too smooth it's difficult to play some tunes of my band (Newen Afrobeat), having no grip especially so i'm thinking going back to Iron cobra 900 or Eliminator.

I really like my Tama 310 Speed Cobra dbl. Very fast and smooth. And I like them even better with the Cobra Coils that I just installed.

Yes, you can adjust footboard independently the beater, it has 3 positions os footboard angle. And this is not a longboard pedal, the adjustment at the footboard back and forward is for let the pedal stronger or lighter. 🥁👍🏻 Please read the instructions to understand these adjustments

Tama pedals are just the best for my foot and playing. Used to have dw 9000 doubles and never felt comfortable with them and too much nonsense. Bought the speed cobra double pedals and immediately I knew these were it. Also bought the iron cobra doubles as my backup pedals and those are just as comfortable. Tama all day.

I have size 13 shoes and the Speed Cobras footboard is just about perfect length. By far the best pedal Ive used yet. Was so fast compared to my other pedals it took awhile to learn to control it. Now it feels perfect. I installed the Cobra Coils and like it even better.

The Falcon truly has more options than the Eliminator. Two cams, two traction options, optional direct drive system, beater weight, beater in-between distance (which I never saw in any other pedal). The spring tension, beater distance and footboard height (that is "infinite", instead of the few positions of the Eliminator) are just standard configurations.

Yeah, I haven't played with the settings on my Falcons all that much, but they seem to be infinitely adjustable, over almost all these other pedals. He glossed over it like it wasn't worth talking about.

I use Pearl Elimintor since they came out and still using it without any complaint

I have an eliminator and you. An adjust the heater angle separately from the footboard. Otherwise great video!

on DW5000 you can adjust footplate hight but more work but it is possible. Nice video

I use DW5000 and for me is top tier. And if you upgrade it with the canoplus ball bearing you have a simpler 9000! Good video. Do the same with HiHat Stands!

I wish all pedals had the ability to fold flat like the Perfect Balance. Would make transporting so much easier!

Excellent video. What do you think about Pearl P930?

Pearl Eliminator is my favourite but I must say Sonor pedals are amazing yet simple

On the Yamaha FP9, you can only use one weight at a time. The second weight will fly off in short order. It even says it in the instruction manual.

I tried the fp9 direct drive but ended up returning it for a backup eliminator redline. The fp9 had a lot of play in the heel plate, I love Yamaha drums but I just never have liked their pedals.

I use DFP9500 (direct drive) from Yamaha, the pedal works ok, however its a bit noisy, and needs constant maintenance(tightening of screws) from time to time.

something must be wrong with your pedal. I've been using it for 9 years and not a single screw loosening or noise. And in 9 years i just cleaned the dirt and oiled the bearings just once.

Does anyone know any hood pedals or pedal adjustment angles or anything for double kick drumming?

can Iron Cobra 900 switch the cams for 2016 version?

Thanks for this exhaustive video! Good work! I play a basic Pearl 830 pedal for most single pedal gigs, because it’s lightweight and I get to gigs on public transport. For double pedal, a Pearl 930 (I think) still pretty basic and lightweight compared to say the DW5000.

I upgraded to a 310 Tama Speed Cobra double from the same PDP pedal. Much smoother, faster, and sturdier. I generally like low priced options but the Speed Cobra is worth it. Feels like an extension of my foot, a feeling I never had with the PDP.

For me the best pedal ever made on the planet is the Tama Iron Cobra HP900

I have both Mapex Armoury & Falcon pedals Unfortunately I have had both semi-break on me, from hoop clamps to footboard hinges 😢

I had two Falcons and none broke. I know about the issue but i think some people put all of their strength to lock the pedal which is never a good idea. You don`t even need to tighten that much to get it sit well.

I play a Tama Speed King pedal but recently went to a jam session and played someone's older, single chain, DW 5000 unit and it felt better to me. I think the longer board on my Speed King doesn't benefit my playing style in the same way the DW 5000 does. I'm not going to get rid of my Tama pedal because it is really great in many ways but I have been thinking more about picking up a standard, shorter board pedal like the Sonor Perfect Balance, the DW 5000, or the Yamaha FP9.

Yamaha FP9 is a longer footboard. You should check out the Iron Cobra. It's very similar to the DW5000.

For some people it broke, i don`t know really how, i`m at the second pedal and i didn`t have this issue but i`m also not abusing the clamp, just tight it until it stays on. Best of luck!

Ive had heavy experience with DW double kicks and Tama Iron Cobra double kicks and of the 2 I'd go with the iron cobras every time. The dw gear-driven drive is actually a heavy design flaw imo, because in my personal experience those gears that the chain attaches to, start to grind and wear down to nubs basically ruining the flow of the stroke of the beater. Tama iron cobras dont have this issue at all and are much more durable longer lasting.

It isn't about the pedal... its the man Who plays it.

TAMA Iron Cobra Power Glide the best Pedal ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

This is a great comparison video, however i must say that you've missed many Tama features. I was expecting for the removable spring, the pivot and others.

For every pedal where you say the footboard angle and beater angle cannot be adjusted independently, you are incorrect 😞 On all of these, the place where strap/chain attached to the cam can be adjusted. You move the attachment point forward or backward along the cam. This adjusts the footboard height independent of the beater angle. So the order of operations is (1) set the beater angle (2) set the footboard angle. It's not the most convenient of processes, but it is anything but absent.

Now, please be honest, Why did you skip over Ludwig ?
