played with the DD for hours last week sa Guitar Center.

I'm comparing Trick, Axis and the DD

Demon Drive ay okay sa bansa natin DAHIL sa spare parts available ng Pearl sa bansa natin, performance wise the Trick is still the most responsive pedal and did I mention the BEST beater among the 3.

I'm an axis user so I've played with it for years and used to the feel ng direct drive pedals, after fixing the spring tension of the DD it is not as responsive as the Axis pedal or the Trick pedal.

The "Longboard" is not that long, comparing it to my pedal the DD's have a shorter one.

Since dito naman tayo sa Pilipinas, suggest ko DD dahil in case something happens JB Music is there to save you with spare parts on sale and dito ata pinakamura ang DD.

If habol niyo lang direct drive and haven't tried one yet I suggest trying one first baka sa huli mag sisi kayo dahil expensive ang DD, for sure maninibago kayo sa feel. Think and decide wisely and hanapin mo yung mas comfortable ang paa mo, I had fun trying this pedal rin but after attempting to push beyond 230ish BPM dun ko na naramdaman yung big difference nila sa trick and axis

IMHO the belt drive eliminator is more reliable

beginner lang ako sa double pedal pero ang bilis ko matuto dito

combination ng speed at power (iba talaga ang pearl) tapos yung appearance nya bonus na lang para sa kin

my only problem is hindi na siya bagay sa hi hat stand ko sana magkaroon na agad ng h3000

wla ako ganito pero na try ko na! responsive naman siya tska may power. smooth na smooth! acurate na acurate pa kahit yun slave pedal walang pinagkaiba sa main pedal. parang kung ano galaw ng paa mo sumusunod siya. ang ganda pa nung balik kasi parang tinutulak nya pabalik paa mo o naka kapit siya sa paa mo.kahit hindi ganun ka higpit yung tension mo sa spring ganun siya.

ok! so meron na siya sa suking Guitar Center dito samin..nauna pa sa Zildjian ReZo

eto lang ang masasabi ko..

-too fancy...mukhang ang target nila ay yung mga "rich kids"..if you knwo what i mean
-not a "real" longboard pedal (kasi pwede mo siya i set as a longboard or regular) kasi nakalitaw yung swivel sa dulo therefore may nakaharang pa din
-interesting beater...almost similar to rubber beaters pero round siya..
-i would rather buy an Axis or a Trick pedal

If you have the money then buy axis... Though you will be stuck with a longboard.. you don't have the option of converting it from normal to longboard.

another thing is... you said that the TARGET market are "RICH KIDS" pero you will be buying AXIS which is more expensive than the DD.. And besides, the materials used and technology applied to this gear is a really good bang for the buck! Magkano DW9002 compared sa DemonDrive?? ang layo diba!!

in closing, have taken into consideration the OTHER Features of the DD like, ninja bearings, adjustable beaters which Pearl DD have and the other don't have.. (have you tried the DD or the Axis btw for you to give that comment?)

I am not flaming you men,,, it's just that some of your post are really misleading...

Here... hope this helps... thanks

i recently got to play play with a DD on a gig. last weekend lang sa 19East! Ok rin pala hahaha..bigat lang ng beater. di ko lang ma-control dahil sobrang smooth yung action at siguro di lang ako sanay. good stuff!

Dude... Adjust mo lang yan.. siguro naka set kasi yung DD dun sa naunang drummer.. iba ibang preference kasi yun eh... Ang sablay lang nyan men... Mabilis lang naman mag palit ng settings nito men... sana kinalikot mo na din!! heheheh..

after so much drooling!!! finally bought mine! syempre dispose ng gamit!! hahaha!!! anyway what can i say about the pedal?!?! hmmmmm

at first medyo maguluhan ka dahil ang dami pwede maging settings?!
first try at setting up the pedal to my specifications, shortboard tapos sagad tension ng spring (sagad sa higpit) didnt quite work for me ang bigat ng feel ng beater
2nd attempt i just converted it to a longboard!!! ayun huli settings! used my pedal once pa lang sa tugtog and i really enjoyed it!!

dami ko na dinaanan na pedal from the first powershifter, dw5000 accelerator, tama ic, axis, tsaka eliminator

ang masasabi ko kung wala kang pera at gusto mo ang feel ng demon drive i suggest go for the elims, para sa akin same lang ang feel pero mas responsive lang yung DD

axis? mahal na nga and i didnt like it pa! akin lang naman yun! tabi-tabi po! tsaka pahiram lang sa akin yun dati hehehe!

Every pedal has its strengths and weaknesses...Brands such as Pearl, DW, Tama, Axis, Trick etc continue to re-invent these so called machines to give drummers the justification they need for their playing. You may end up buying the different brand or end up buying the pedal which the majority use...My point here is that whatever you choose, put your heart into it. What seperates you from others is the amount you spent practicing. I too have tried different pedals, I can't take away anything from them because each brand has their feature/s which one of us would be glad to spend their money's worth. In my own opinion, it is the drummer that should adapt to the pedal's performance and not vice versa. You can't teach these pedals, but you can learn or find ways to execute them through hours and hours of practicing.

It is okay to give reviews on a product, but make sure you have tried or at least have one, studied it and gave time using it.

I bought a Demon Drive 4 days ago and until now, i still can't make such reviews because of it's many features it has to offer...it would be unfair. But if you think your last visit to the store was enough to put words on the Demon Drive or any pedal out there...think again.

Easy lang mga drum brothers.

kaya tayo nag tatalo kasi iba iba talaga feel ng mga paa naten.

For me personally feel is not a serious issue here. It's super adjustable naman kaya madaling ma tweek to your preference.
My only concern is the Power of this pedals. Ngayun nabasa ko sa mga reviews try to change the beaters to Quad beaters and malalaman mo ang difference.

Well that's just me. If only i can borrow from someone who has kahit a week maganda mahanap ko ang settings ko.

BTW. I bought ELIMS pala. Reasons? Namurahan ako at natuwa ako sa feel ng Red Cams.Hehehe

kibohead · « **Reply #146 on:** October 07, 2009, 11:14:10 AM »

oo nga relax lang tayo...ang kulit nga ng beater parang gulong ng laruan. haha...

carl20 · « **Reply #147 on:** October 07, 2009, 11:20:17 AM »
