Fresh from Drum Day LA, JR Robinson talks with the R&D team about some amazing new hardware from DW Drums. New MFG pedals, XF Pedal Conversion Kits, even an amazing new carbon snare drum. For more info visit www.dwdrums.com
That’s cool to hear you can buy the XF footboard and replace the standard length footboard. Would the same work with the 9000 series pedal? I love the feel of mine but I have been working on heel-toe technique and wish I had just a little more realistate.
Where can I get the new color/texture standard length foot board in the black, I have had the problem of my feet slipping off the pedals since I got these, I installed some non abrasive grip tape but it keeps wearing away
Drum Workshop.... that's workshop in the name... but if you have an idea, not just a request but a fully formed idea, they don't want to hear it. They have a full disclosure form that shields them from getting into legal issues. So, the mention in this video of incorporating input from drummers not part of the DW familly seems a little disingenuous. From the submittal from.... "In order that the rights of both the submitter and the company be clearly defined, the company has an established procedure governing the receipt and consideration of such submissions. Suggestions must be submitted in accordance with the CONDITIONS OF SUBMISSION set forth in the form attached to this bulletin. You should complete and return the form to us with a written description of your suggestion. We will carefully review your submission and advise you promptly if we wish to acquire or pursue any rights in your idea."
That just isn't so. We work with many who have or have had fully formed ideas. As an instrument builder we are always open to collaboration and as a company we have to protect ourselves as well. Cheers
