Double Bass Pedal for Electronic Drums

Double Bass Pedal for Electronic Drums

Whether you play metal, rock, or fusion, a double bass pedal is a game-changer for any electronic drum setup. It unlocks new creative potential, allowing faster footwork, punchier patterns, and dynamic low-end control. But when it comes to electronic drums, not every double pedal is created equal.

You need a pedal that’s responsive, smooth, and compatible with mesh or rubber kick pads — without compromising feel or durability.


What Makes a Great Double Pedal for E-Drums?

1. Direct Compatibility with Kick Pads
Electronic drum kick pads (especially mesh ones) require pedals that deliver controlled power without overstressing the head. A well-balanced pedal ensures clean triggering and minimizes false hits.

2. Smooth Action & Adjustable Settings
Top-tier pedals offer adjustable spring tension, beater angle, and footboard height — so you can dial in the perfect response for your playing style.

3. Sturdy, Road-Ready Build
A good double pedal for e-drums must be lightweight enough for quick setup, but rugged enough to handle aggressive playing and regular transport.
