I don't know of a pedal system out there that I would rather have.
Sound
The action and feel are amazing. Really solid and powerful when you need it to be - with excellent feel and touch. Smooth and fast. Almost like there is no pedal at all. Probably not the pedal for metal style double bass playing, but really great for feel-type playing. Live or in the studio, this pedal has been a pure pleasure to play. When I was shopping for a new double pedal, I hadn't played a mechanical drive before. The difference for me was night and day. The speed and feel, it was just effortless. Effortless.
Features
The hoop clamp system works well, just get it adjusted once for your hoop, then it's a no brainer after that. The pedal comes with standard felt beaters, I replaced them with DW style mallets for a sound I prefer.
Quality
Solid as a rock. Very well designed and manufactured
Value
Not the cheapest pedal out there, but worth every cent.
Manufacturer Support
No issues
