Ludwig and his brother Theobald began manufacturing and selling the first modern pedals in 1909, bass drum pedals were clumsy and fragile. Most were made of wood and relied on an awkward <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theblackpage.net\/articles\/pedal-evolution\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">swinging rope pulley system<\/a> with a cymbal striker that didn\u2019t offer much control or playing response. While some of the designs were ingenious and creative, most were pretty <a href=\"http:\/\/www.vintagedrumguide.com\/pedals.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">hilarious<\/a> by modern standards.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That all changed with Ludwig\u2019s creation of a \u201cdirect drive\u201d pedal which had a solid bridge between the footboard and the beater. This was a game-changer!&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Fast forward to 1934 when Ludwig put out the \u201cSpeed King\u201d model, which introduced the idea of adjustable spring tension and ball-bearings. They kept refining it up to 1950 and still sell a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sweetwater.com\/store\/detail\/L203--ludwig-speed-king-single-bass-drum-pedal\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">close replica<\/a> (see replica here if <a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/P7nWoEbDqfs?si=Z8bYXOKI4eiez3p5\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/P7nWoEbDqfs?si=Z8bYXOKI4eiez3p5\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">in Europe<\/a>). After a few years of stagnation and clumsy wooden options due to the metal shortage of World War II, the first \u201cchain drive\u201d pedals changed the game again in the late 1970s (legend has it that a clever bike mechanic in New York came up with the idea).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>40 years later, we\u2019ve got double pedals (thanks Louie Bellson), single and dual chains, belts, springs, extra-long footboards, linear and offset cams and more good options than we know what to do with.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Let\u2019s check out the different parts of the bass drum pedal.<\/p>\n\n\n<p><iframe class=\"email-form-include-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.drumeo.com\/weeklyemail\" frameborder=\"none\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"Parts\"><strong>Bass Drum Pedal Components<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/www.musora.com\/musora-cdn\/image\/quality=85\/https:\/\/drumeoblog.s3.amazonaws.com\/beat\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/22080937\/labeled-Bass-drum-pedal-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-32270\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/drumeoblog.s3.amazonaws.com\/beat\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/22080937\/labeled-Bass-drum-pedal-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/drumeoblog.s3.amazonaws.com\/beat\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/22080937\/labeled-Bass-drum-pedal-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/drumeoblog.s3.amazonaws.com\/beat\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/22080937\/labeled-Bass-drum-pedal-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/drumeoblog.s3.amazonaws.com\/beat\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/22080937\/labeled-Bass-drum-pedal-1536x1025.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/drumeoblog.s3.amazonaws.com\/beat\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/22080937\/labeled-Bass-drum-pedal.jpg 1610w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Drive System<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>The drive system connects the footboard to the \u201ccam\u201d (which we\u2019ll discuss in a minute), catapulting the beater forward to strike the head when you step on the pedal. While there are always variations, you essentially have three main options:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Chain drive<\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>This is the most common and popular type of pedal. Single-chain pedals are lightweight and portable for quieter playing styles, while dual-chain are more sturdy for powerful rock playing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Direct drive<\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>The solid bridge between the beater and the footboard makes these pedals super-responsive (some drummers actually find them to be <em>too<\/em> sensitive, so go try one out)! These are popular with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.drumeo.com\/beat\/derek-roddys-double-bass-technique\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">metal drummers looking for increased speed<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Belt drive<\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>Many drummers love<em> <\/em>belt drive pedals because they\u2019re smooth, silent and powerful. They have a similarly sensitive feel to direct drive pedals and can work for many different types of playing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Cams<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>The cam is the small piece of metal that connects the drive system (chain or belt) to the beater. (Note: direct drive pedals don\u2019t have cams since the beater and the footboard are already connected). Some high-end pedals actually have adjustable and replaceable cams.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There is no right or wrong here, and which type you choose is personal preference. Try out some different pedals and find one that feels perfect for you.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here are the two main types of cams and how they affect the feel and playability of the pedal:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Linear<\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>The round shape of the cam creates an even resistance throughout the duration of the stroke. Many drummers feel these offer maximum control and speed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Offset<\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>The cam isn\u2019t quite round which causes the beginning of the stroke to feel a little more \u201cdelayed,\u201d with the beater whipping through the zone as it gets closer to the head. These are popular with drummers who want more power.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Footboard<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>There are lots of different features to choose from here, and every drummer\u2019s foot is different.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Standard Footboard<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>Many modern pedals have a \u201csplit\u201d footboard with a hinged heel piece you can anchor your foot onto for more power and control.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Extended Footboard<\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>These don\u2019t have the heel piece and are longer in length, which some drummers prefer for sliding their foot back and forth for faster doubles and bounces. \u201cLongboards\u201d are especially popular with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.drumeo.com\/beat\/gene-hoglan-bass-drum-technique\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">metal drummers<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Slide your toes on there and give them all a shot!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Springs<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Getting the spring tension set just right is one of the most important parts of getting comfortable with your pedal. Whether your pedal has single or dual springs, it can be impossible to play if the resistance isn\u2019t right. Many modern pedals have easy spring tension adjustment options (you can also try some of this <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Gibraltar-SC-GLO-Lubricant-For-Pedals\/dp\/B0002L523C\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">kick pedal lube<\/a> to loosen things up even more).&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These minor adjustments can go a long way, and most pedals will also allow you to change the angle of the beater. If the beater is too close the head, the action won\u2019t be right, and if it\u2019s too far away, you can smack yourself in the shin, which is no fun. We\u2019ve all been there!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Bass drum beaters<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>The material, shape and weight of your beater can have a huge impact on the sound and feel of your pedal. Many pedals are sold with beaters that have dual playing surfaces to give you more sound options. We\u2019ll go over some specific products later, but here are few of the main features:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Felt beaters<\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>This is the most common type of beater and they feature a solid combination of attack and tone. You can get felt beaters with different levels of firmness, which can affect the feel and sound.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Plastic beaters<\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>These have more attack and less tone quality, which is great if you really need to cut through the mix onstage. However, their sound is a bit flat and cold for some playing situations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Leather beaters<\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>These are less common, but offer a nice sonic compromise between felt and plastic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Wood beaters<\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>Wood beaters are great for heavier playing and on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.drumeo.com\/beat\/electronic-drum-solo\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">electronic kits<\/a> since they have a ton of attack.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Wool\/Fleece<\/strong> <strong>beaters<\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>These offer the softest attack and work great for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.drumeo.com\/beat\/why-every-drummer-should-learn-jazz-drums\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">playing jazz<\/a> and mellower styles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Round bass drum beaters<\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>Many traditional pedals have round beaters, and many drummers prefer them since their weight is evenly distributed.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Flat bass drum beaters<\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>Some players feel that these help you get cleaner strokes with fewer unwanted bounces and hiccups. The weight is often concentrated more in the back on the beater head which can help you create a more powerful \u201cwhipping\u201d action.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you want other beater shapes, you can find options that resemble modern flat beaters but have a concave or oval-shaped playing surface.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Heavy or light beaters?<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s up to you! Heavy beaters can create more power, while lighter ones offer more speed and control. Most people prefer something in the middle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now that you\u2019ve checked out all the parts from ankle to toe, let\u2019s go over the multitude of options on the market today to find the perfect pedal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>All prices are listed in USD and subject to market changes.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"Cheap\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>(Single $70-$150\/Double $200-$350)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These will get you started without breaking the bank, but lack some of the features of higher-end models.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/imp.i114863.net\/ZdBORK\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener sponsored nofollow\"><strong>Yamaha FP7210A (Single $69.99)<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Also available <a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/P7nWoEbDqfs?si=Z8bYXOKI4eiez3p5\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/P7nWoEbDqfs?si=Z8bYXOKI4eiez3p5\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">in Europe<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-medium is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/imp.i114863.net\/ZdBORK\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"199\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/www.musora.com\/musora-cdn\/image\/quality=85\/https:\/\/drumeoblog.s3.amazonaws.com\/beat\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/10204046\/FP7210-large-199x300.jpg\" alt=\"yamaha fp7210A single pedal\" class=\"wp-image-32125\" style=\"width:199px;height:300px\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/drumeoblog.s3.amazonaws.com\/beat\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/10204046\/FP7210-large-199x300.jpg 199w, https:\/\/drumeoblog.s3.amazonaws.com\/beat\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/10204046\/FP7210-large.jpg 498w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 199px) 100vw, 199px\" \/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>This is a nice single-pedal option if you aren\u2019t playing loud.
