very good man heels down is a tough cookie for me i play heels up but the max i can do is 200 bpm but eh practice and dedication will fix that but when i play my fastest i can reach to 210 or 220 if im really pushing it but heels down?! son you came from Croms Mountain didnt u lol
@allmetaliswelcome ya it took me a year or more to get to 150-170, 190 heels down is pretty damn good, and in 2 months it seems unlikely. Not to troll on the guy but he also said something about being able to play bleed. If he was meaning 2 months of playing over all that's even more unlikely.
hey bro! great video, dont listen to the haters... your control is very nice! i'm having problems with my right foot.. i cant control it.. i cant pass the 130 134 because it starts going fast like on his own.. =/ some tip?
@GoniSierra thanks goni!!..r u left handed? cause it's strange u have problems with the right foot..anyway practice each foot separately: try 8th notes at 120bpm playing
||:RRRRLLLL:|| then
||:RRRRRRRRLLLLLLLL:|| then
||: 12x R + 12x L :|| then
||: 16x R + 16x L :||..
play each bar 8 times..it'll take u like 10 min..the important thing is that u should practice at a speed u feel comfortable: if u can't do this exercise at 120, try 110 or slower
@KolliasWannabe666 Thanks a lot but Im I cant learn heels up dont know why, I started heels down, playing everything, even bleed from meshuggah, and now heels up I cant learn, it fees so not natural, my leg is too heavy for me to lift fast:D
@KolliasWannabe666 Actually, heel down would enable you to reach higher speeds because you are utilizing the rebound of the head to create a pendulum between the beater and the head, heel toe uses all the weight of your leg and you waste a lot of energy.
how do you get the "bounce back" on an electronic bass drum? The only thing i could think to do is to tighten the springs. And when i switch to real drums im 10 times better at double bass than on a electric kit.
@0220mikey honestly i hate electronic kits..i tried a yamaha a couple of years ago and i was...disgusted...
that's why i can't help you..i can tell u it's quite obvious that on an acoustic kit u're better: about bd, electronic kits are like pads: the rebound sucks..
anyway if it was me, i wouldn't modify the spring tension: it's normal if u feel different if u play an electric kit, but it's a matter of kit..u shouldn't change anything bout the pedal..
@BatFuckingCountry right, it's better not to lift your leg off the pedal, but some drummers do it (watch chris adler)..the fact is that if u lift the foot u're definitely using leg motion, and that it's right at a slow tempo at which u're relaxed..in this case it's a choice to gain more power (but definitely no drum teacher would tell u to lift the foot)..surely at higher tempo, when u cannot use leg motion and u change to ankles, u must not lift the foot..
@pongopanic I assume that by "lose it", you mean the speed or volume is fluctuating? That's normal.. try playing 16th notes at your top speed with your _hands_ for 5 minutes straight.. You never play 16th notes straight on the snare unless you're practicing, so it's only natural to "lose it". It boils down to practice and repetition, as you know.
@pongopanic hi pongo, sorry for made u wait..i totally agee with mikepostdrums: practice is the key to solve any problem..it's normal that u can't play at your top speed for long time..
@KolliasWannabe666 Thanks a lot man. I'm struggling to play the intro to "Concealing Fate (part II)" by Tesseract. It's at 150 bpm and i struggled with lifting my feet off the pedals (Iron Cobra's, by the way).
@Battossai3000 i'm not doing this exercise anymore, but i used to do it 5 times a week at least..each time i did it 16x (it took like 20 min, if i remember right)..anyway, this exercise was the conclusion of a 2 hours routine made of techical exercises for both hands and feet..
I kinda want to get one of those bass drum pads that you have so i can practice while watchin movies or whatever but it just seems like a pain in the ass to take my pedals off my set...
@zysilveria hahaha in this case i think u chose the wrong instrument to play..i mean, when i go to play with my band (or alone to practice), i have to take the pedal, 3 cymbals, the stool, and few other things (that means like 15 min to put them on the drums every time i change kit)..so i suggest u first to buy this pad and have the patience to move the pedal, and then to do like me: become a singer in the next life so we don't have to move anything but our ass!!
this is a pretty good exercise. I tried it today and it felt like i could have done that all day, I just wanted to to hit those 16th notes over and over again :D
@Fuck1nMetal si beh l'axis non l'ho mai provato, ma immagino che sia il massimo per suonare roba veloce, ma quando hai bisogno di dinamiche (per quello che ho potuto vedere da vari video) non credo sia poi così buono
@Fuck1nMetal ma cmq sai che ero preso benissimo con l'axis longboard..(puoi immaginare dal mio nick)..il fatto è che veramente pensavo che l'axis fosse solo estremo..cmq ti devo dire che con l'eliminator mi trovo strabene..fra 3/4 anni, se lo devo cambiare axis tutta la vita
@mutsufu@federico90no se magari, è un 4000..tra l'altro sto vid ormai ha più di 2 anni e già qui dava problemi (senti il cigolio)..per farvi ridere aggiungo che il perno che lega il pedale dx al "tallone" si sfila di continuo, tutte le giunture possibili si sono allargate (ogni vite alloggia in un buco grosso il doppio della vite stessa) e dulcis in fundo il pedale sx sbatteva sulla pedana sotto, quindi ho dovuto limare la pedana di 1/2 cm..soluzione: tra pochi giorni: pearl eliminator
@KolliasWannabe666 Guarda io ho un dw 7000, e anche a me ogni tanto salatano giunture. Premetto col dire che ce l'ho da parecchi anni, ma resta comunque un pedale molto buono e allo stesso tempo di valore!
@mutsufu si lo so che il 7000 è un buon pedale, però un mesetto fa un amico (ex endorser pearl) mi ha fatto provare il suo eliminator e non pensavo di trovarmi così bene, quindi penso che opterò per quello..
@mutsufu a settembre sono 5 anni..ho frequentato un corso amatoriale (cioè senza esami) in civica..tu da quanto suoni? p.s.: ho comprato 2 giorni fa l'eliminator sono strasoddisfatto..
@KolliasWannabe666 Io non suono da molto, suono da 3 anni e io sono quattordicenne ( sono il figlio del possessore del canale) e volevo probvare un iron cobra. Ne hai mai provato uno?
@mutsufu l'iron cobra l'ho provato 30 sec ma nn mi ha fatto questa grande impressione (meglio del mio dw, ma rispetto all'eliminator non c'è paragone)..considera però che sul dw tenevo le molle alla tensione max, ma sul cobra erano abb molli..ti consiglio in sostanza di provarli entrambi perchè il mio è un giudizio personale, magari ti trovi meglio col cobra..cmq sei giovane (e nell'apprendimento l'età conta motlo), esercitati quotidianamente (e se puoi prendi lezioni) che diventi bravo
are you just using a normal DP pad for the bass? I have a td 5 set and im afraid ill have to do this in order to get double bass. How did you mount it?
che ne pensi del doppio pedale che usi in questo video? è veloce , morbido e stabile? la pedana rimane perfettamente dritta senza oscillazioni destra sinistra?grazie
@savior881 obviously this vid is not impressive, i mean i'm playing at 180 and that's only the starting point to play metal, but the aim of this exercise is to play different rhythmic figures as relaxed and as powerful as u can, to develop control and a bit of endurance and speed without "pushing"..anyway, thank u for watching savior
@greinerfan1274 it's a dw 4000 with.......stagg beaters.........anyway i saw a dw 2000 in a shop a few days ago..its price is the same of 4000 when i bought it 5 years ago..i didn't try that 2000 but at first sight it seems equal to my old 4000...
@KolliasWannabe666 well like i use dw 2000s and they're amazing. i need help building up speed though, and I'm stuck on a cheap electronic set, because the rents hated the volume of the acoustic
@noir21b no man..read the description: i use the metronome in cut time, but if u wanna know what i'm doing at 180 that's it: a bar of quarter notes, one of quarter triplets, one of 8ths, one of eigth triplets, one of 16ths and then the same but reverse..
This is actually legit because he can do that even though he has crap pedals. Most drummers can do like 300 bpm because they are using some axis magic or etc etc
How long did it take to get your double bass going properly like in the vid?(from the time you got your double pedal to 180 bpm) I can do 170 bpm but raising it to 180 bpm which is about 6% increase of speed seems impossible, did you have the problem also?
@Villex93 i bought this double pedal when i started playing and this vid was recorded 2 years and a half after, but i should say that i was practising with pads for a year (before i played drums only and i used dp very little..i mean everyone starts with nirvana and stuff like that hahah)..so it tooks like a year or a bit more..of course everyone has problems trying to push their limit, don't worry: if you keep practising constantly at a speed you're relaxed u'd soon be able to reach 180..
@13TeK11 il pedale sinistro e la barra che lo collega al destro..periodicamente ci metto dello svitol, ma il cigolio ricomincia dopo 4-5 giorni..che poi la cosa grave non è tanto il cigolio (perchè ovviamente quando suono la batteria non si sente) ma è l'attrito (quello che poi produce il cigolio): il battente sinistro non ha gioco e in sostanza devo sforzare molto di più che col destro..e sto video ha 1 anno e mezzo, quindi puoi ben immaginare che la situazione non può che essere peggiorata
@13TeK11 beh ovvio (e cmq questo pedale ha 4 anni), il fatto è che vorrei l'axis longboard, ergo 500 €, ma credo che prenderlo ora sia un po' da batterista medio (a cosa mi serve l'axis per suonare a neanche 200 bpm?? cioè, vorrei evitare di "avere il pane ma non i denti")..al contempo vorrei evitare """vie di mezzo""" come iron cobra, dw 9000 etc etc (vie di mezzo in quanto, ripeto, voglio l'axis) quindi vado avanti col mio...a singola catena per giunta..
@PolloXdeth umm..i think this is the most stupid comment i've received considering u just told me to play 16th notes at 340 - 360 bpm..hope u'r joking..
When you play, are you lifting your legs from your pelvis area, or is the main movement in your ankles? I guess what I'm asking is, what part of your leg initiates the movement?
@NickThePianist the movement i make depends on the speed: in this vid, when i play 8th, 8th triplets and 16ths i lift the whole leg, but when i go faster (16th triplets and 32nd especially) i use more ankle..this vid is quite old, and when i did it i hadn't study ankle motion yet, that means the change of movement is quite natural..of course at the beginning u'd use more leg, but i suggest u to try to move not ur legs and use more ankles when u go fast: u'd be more relaxed while mantaining power
@CJTAGG1 each pedal has 2 "screws" which point downward: screw them and ur pedal won't go any further..but if u don't want to ruin the carpet i suggest u to do as i did: if u pay attention, in this vid my pedal is put on a carpet made of wood strips (so a material on which it would slide), on this carpet i stuck on "something" to make some thickness and then i covered it with scotch tape (the brown thing in front of the left pedal)..
@CJTAGG1 or you could do what i did...there this velcro stuff you can by which has an adhesive back. stick the adhesive side to the bottom of the pedal and the other side (velcro) will just stay put on the carpet.
@RyEBreaD757 congrats!!can u post a vid showing us u really make it?i mean there's lot of people convinced they'r able to play fast only cuz they put the metronome at 3298bpm while they'r beating like furious monkeys and they don't even see they'r not following the metronome..i love death metal, but it created a generation of idiots who think drumming means going "fast-random"..not saying u'r one of them..anyway i'll prefer get over my limits gradually than trying 32nd at whatever-u-want bpm
@xanocide Not really. Despite the fact that Roddy, Kollias and Yeung, etc. all endorse Axis, the problem with a direct drive, REALLY lightweight, all steel pedal with minimal resistance is that (relating foot technique to hands and etc.) if the pedal is so light, it won't have much momentum and will barely do any of the work for you, so you really have to bang out every hit... which will take way more energy.
So really, it actually makes you physically slower in the end.
@Steve128967 i partly agree with you, but i think it's mostly a matter of practice (as always): of course at the beginning, due to the things u said, u must make much more attention to every stroke, but once u've developed the proper control (due to the things u said hehe) u can be more relaxed using an AL than another pedal..
@Steve128967 ah, but that's where engineering and physics come to play when designing a double pedal. From what I understand an axis pedal is designed to be lightweight, but despite its lightweight it still hits as hard as a heavier pedal with less force from your feet allowing you to reach higher speeds. I guess you can technically say it will take more energy away because you will be playing at a faster speed but i'm not so sure you can say it will make you physically slower.
i think that the best way to play bass drum is with convers all star .(Y)

savior881 10 months ago
@savior881 obviously this vid is not impressive, i mean i'm playing at 180 and that's only the starting point to play metal, but the aim of this exercise is to play different rhythmic figures as relaxed and as powerful as u can, to develop control and a bit of endurance and speed without "pushing"..anyway, thank u for watching savior

are those dw 2000's with iron cobra beaters?
greinerfan1274 11 months ago
@greinerfan1274 it's a dw 4000 with.......stagg beaters.........anyway i saw a dw 2000 in a shop a few days ago..its price is the same of 4000 when i bought it 5 years ago..i didn't try that 2000 but at first sight it seems equal to my old 4000...
KolliasWannabe666 11 months ago
@KolliasWannabe666 well like i use dw 2000s and they're amazing. i need help building up speed though, and I'm stuck on a cheap electronic set, because the rents hated the volume of the acoustic

@noir21b no man..read the description: i use the metronome in cut time, but if u wanna know what i'm doing at 180 that's it: a bar of quarter notes, one of quarter triplets, one of 8ths, one of eigth triplets, one of 16ths and then the same but reverse..

This is actually legit because he can do that even though he has crap pedals. Most drummers can do like 300 bpm because they are using some axis magic or etc etc

silverfire27 1 year ago
How long did it take to get your double bass going properly like in the vid?(from the time you got your double pedal to 180 bpm) I can do 170 bpm but raising it to 180 bpm which is about 6% increase of speed seems impossible, did you have the problem also?
Villex93 1 year ago
@Villex93 i bought this double pedal when i started playing and this vid was recorded 2 years and a half after, but i should say that i was practising with pads for a year (before i played drums only and i used dp very little..i mean everyone starts with nirvana and stuff like that hahah)..so it tooks like a year or a bit more..of course everyone has problems trying to push their limit, don't worry: if you keep practising constantly at a speed you're relaxed u'd soon be able to reach 180..

13TeK11 1 year ago
@13TeK11 il pedale sinistro e la barra che lo collega al destro..periodicamente ci metto dello svitol, ma il cigolio ricomincia dopo 4-5 giorni..che poi la cosa grave non è tanto il cigolio (perchè ovviamente quando suono la batteria non si sente) ma è l'attrito (quello che poi produce il cigolio): il battente sinistro non ha gioco e in sostanza devo sforzare molto di più che col destro..e sto video ha 1 anno e mezzo, quindi puoi ben immaginare che la situazione non può che essere peggiorata
KolliasWannabe666 1 year ago
@KolliasWannabe666 scusa la domanda ma in 1 anno e mezzo nn hai mai pensato di cambiare pedale?_?
13TeK11 1 year ago
@13TeK11 beh ovvio (e cmq questo pedale ha 4 anni), il fatto è che vorrei l'axis longboard, ergo 500 €, ma credo che prenderlo ora sia un po' da batterista medio (a cosa mi serve l'axis per suonare a neanche 200 bpm?? cioè, vorrei evitare di "avere il pane ma non i denti")..al contempo vorrei evitare """vie di mezzo""" come iron cobra, dw 9000 etc etc (vie di mezzo in quanto, ripeto, voglio l'axis) quindi vado avanti col mio...a singola catena per giunta..

Nice. Metal sounds more good when it becomes more slower but Drum & Bass takes 1 pedel to do the job.

KolliasWannabe666 1 year ago
When you play, are you lifting your legs from your pelvis area, or is the main movement in your ankles? I guess what I'm asking is, what part of your leg initiates the movement?
NickThePianist 1 year ago
@NickThePianist the movement i make depends on the speed: in this vid, when i play 8th, 8th triplets and 16ths i lift the whole leg, but when i go faster (16th triplets and 32nd especially) i use more ankle..this vid is quite old, and when i did it i hadn't study ankle motion yet, that means the change of movement is quite natural..of course at the beginning u'd use more leg, but i suggest u to try to move not ur legs and use more ankles when u go fast: u'd be more relaxed while mantaining power

CJTAGG1 1 year ago
@CJTAGG1 each pedal has 2 "screws" which point downward: screw them and ur pedal won't go any further..but if u don't want to ruin the carpet i suggest u to do as i did: if u pay attention, in this vid my pedal is put on a carpet made of wood strips (so a material on which it would slide), on this carpet i stuck on "something" to make some thickness and then i covered it with scotch tape (the brown thing in front of the left pedal)..
KolliasWannabe666 1 year ago
@KolliasWannabe666 ok thank you.
CJTAGG1 1 year ago
@CJTAGG1 or you could do what i did...there this velcro stuff you can by which has an adhesive back. stick the adhesive side to the bottom of the pedal and the other side (velcro) will just stay put on the carpet.

@RyEBreaD757 congrats!!can u post a vid showing us u really make it?i mean there's lot of people convinced they'r able to play fast only cuz they put the metronome at 3298bpm while they'r beating like furious monkeys and they don't even see they'r not following the metronome..i love death metal, but it created a generation of idiots who think drumming means going "fast-random"..not saying u'r one of them..anyway i'll prefer get over my limits gradually than trying 32nd at whatever-u-want bpm

@Steve128967 you're right, axis are 10x faster. LOL
xanocide 1 year ago
@xanocide Not really. Despite the fact that Roddy, Kollias and Yeung, etc. all endorse Axis, the problem with a direct drive, REALLY lightweight, all steel pedal with minimal resistance is that (relating foot technique to hands and etc.) if the pedal is so light, it won't have much momentum and will barely do any of the work for you, so you really have to bang out every hit... which will take way more energy.
So really, it actually makes you physically slower in the end.
Steve128967 1 year ago
@Steve128967 i partly agree with you, but i think it's mostly a matter of practice (as always): of course at the beginning, due to the things u said, u must make much more attention to every stroke, but once u've developed the proper control (due to the things u said hehe) u can be more relaxed using an AL than another pedal..
KolliasWannabe666 1 year ago
@Steve128967 ah, but that's where engineering and physics come to play when designing a double pedal. From what I understand an axis pedal is designed to be lightweight, but despite its lightweight it still hits as hard as a heavier pedal with less force from your feet allowing you to reach higher speeds. I guess you can technically say it will take more energy away because you will be playing at a faster speed but i'm not so sure you can say it will make you physically slower.
