The Pearl Eliminator Demon Drive Bass Drum Pedal is a top tier double bass pedal for use with your drum kit. Obviously, a pedal like this is in place of actually having two separate bass drums. I’m not an expert when it comes to drum gear like this, but did recently get to try out this double kick pedal and was really impressed. First off, the sound possible with this is incredible as it beats nice and hard and is perfect for hard rock and metal. The feel of it is definitely the best part, as I’ve never felt a better feeling double bass drum pedal. It really makes it as easy as possible to control each of the pedals individually. A drummer recently brought this in on a session that I was working and I was lucky enough to get to try it out after the session was done. Of course I wasn’t able to make it sound quite as good as the professional session drummer who was using it, but could instantly tell how smooth the pedal was. He was using the Pearl Eliminator Demon Drive Bass Drum Pedal along with a Pearl kit as well, although I’m not sure if this makes any difference at all and wouldn’t think it would. The price of the Pearl Eliminator Demon Drive Bass Drum Pedal definitely isn’t cheap as you could get a super cheap drum kit for the price of this pedal. It’s definitely intended for professionals who are going to be using a double kick pedal on a consistent basis. I don’t know if they make them better than the Pearl Eliminator Demon Drive Bass Drum Pedal but if they do I’d be seriously impressed. I’d probably shy away from this because of the price unless you’re a very experienced or professional drummer with a top tier kit already…
