I wish to change what i have said previously, i use a medium tension on my springs and a medium tension head. It works wonders! my bass drum sounds better, i have more control, dynamics and speed, and its great for heel-toe
G'day all,
I like my pedal spring just tight enough to follow my foot, so as fast as I can lift my foot, the board will follow. I still have plenty of speed & power.
At least that's how I explain it, I've been playing for a while now & it seems to work for me, without getting tired, or sore in the leg, at the end of a four hour gig.
As tight as they will go!!!
Still playing around with Settings, just switched to Pearl Demon Drive, lots more to adjust with than my old Mapex Single Kick Pedal or PDP Double
