    Amp for Kick triggers?

    Noise is not an issue. Its a relatively medium sized basement, and I have adequate hearing protection, I just need the other people I play with to be able to hear my kick triggers.

    Amp for Kick triggers?

    Thank you for your response. Would a Focusrite Scarlet 18i20 be able to be used as a mixer? And what kind of budget speaker/pa could be used for casual playing with others using medium 50-100 watt guitar amps? Any further input you can provide is greatly appreciated!

    The footboards don’t hit the bottom and I removed the cobra coils. I have tried to use the independent beater angle footboard angle adjustments but they seem to move eachother whenever I attempt to adjust them individually.

    How to replace pedal bearings

    Hello all! Around 6 months ago I got a pair of Iron Cobra 900 powerglides, and within the last month or so they have started to feel like they’re losing responsiveness regardless of spring tension/other settings.

    Help adjusting my single kick pedals to feel the same

    They have the same angle. I checked the duration of their swings though and noticed the less responsive one swung for a shorter duration. I thought it was at max tension but it still had some room to tighten. Thank you for your help. I’ll test them and update tomorrow. I really appreciate all...

    Help adjusting my single kick pedals to feel the same

    Hello all! I have a relatively new (6 month old) pair of Iron Cobra 900 powerglide singles on 2 kick drums. I have both at max spring tension, the cobra coils removed, and the footboard/beater angles similar enough that they look the same. My right pedal however feels much less responsive than...
