Posted: Mon Aug 24, 2009 10:47 pm Post subject: Double Bass with Destroyers |
|
|
I've been playing Expert+ songs recently and seem to be stuck on some with really fast beats like Battery and War Ensemble. I use two Destroyer pedals with the Twin Rocker on my Ions. I can do songs with a moderate beat like Orion and others, but when I get into fast songs like these, it feels awkward and I eventually can't hit anything, I was just wondering if this takes use to, or is there just something wrong? |

There's nothing wrong, double bass is just harder than you thought it would be. _________________

That's probably a combination of several factors.
1) The Destroyers have no beaters, and you're used to feeling that.
2) The Destroyers are made from VERY cheap pedals (Dixon 611).
3) The Destroyers use a magnetic sensor switch, meaning the hit goes off when the magnet gets into range of the sensor. From playing real drums, you're used to the kick drum only making sound when you actually hit it. That's a very different feel. _________________

I have the 2.0 Pedals so I tried to add the beaters, it feels a lot better, only problem is that they move around so much now. |
