Information About The Drumnetics Pedal

With a completely different approach to function, our magnetically driven pedals incorporate the most efficient utility ever to grace the workings of the bass drum pedal. With this replacement of conventional spring formats, let us help you discover how dynamic and different a pedal can really feel!

Testimonial:

"All I can say is... Freakin' AWESOME pedal man!  

Springs?  

Never goin' back. 

This pedal has been my new best friend as of a few months ago.

Mike... awesome job dude.

stay cool..."

Take a few moments to review the adjustment features below. 

The patented Drumnetics Pedal offers four conjunctive settings that convey a completely unique action to which no other pedal compares. 

 

 

 

 

 

   
 

Along with the clamp mechanism, the magnets are seen here contained within their cartridges. They are positioned at centerline of the pedal to give a completely direct tranfer of energy generated by the magnetic repulsion.

The clamp tightens down using a standard drum key on the lug bolt through the access at the base of the upright.

FEEL the Magnetism!!

The alignment of the magnets is one way of creating the level of repulsion force in your pedal's over all action. This setting is realized by using the slide adjust feature in the pedal board above the Drumnetics name.

As you slide the pedal board magnet up toward the front, the magnets are set face-to-face and the repulsion increases.

With a quick loosening of the slide adjust set bolt, simply bring the magnet cartridge down toward its offset position and your repulsion force decreases. All of this can be done with your pedal clamped on the bass drum for a quick fine tuning when you want it.

The pedal board angle is another adjustment that combines with our other settings to give you that desired action.

Our adjustable linkage allows you to extend or shorten its length without needing to disconnect anything. Just loosen the two set bolts and it will slide to your desired setting.

        *      *      *      *      * 

The bearings at the primary moving connections have a level 5 ABEC precision rating, 10 being the highest. We feel that they      meet the performance load capacities that occur in the pedal's configurations.

This view of the magnets displays how the adjustment wrenches are stored in the bottom cartridge and held in place by magnetic attraction. Yes, we did say attraction. With repulsion, the primary utility of our pedal, it's kind of cool that we can make use of the same magnets' attraction properties also. 

The bottom magnet slides within a track to apply the amount of spacing between the magnets, which will increase or decrease the level of repulsion. The two set bolts hold the cartridge in place once you've established the right amount of spacing. Together, this feature and the alignment     combine to provide your pedal with the level you want -  for the feel you want!

In the rotor cam, the center housing block for the beater shaft sets your desired beater angle. The set bolt positioned on the back end of the cam assembly tightens through to the other side plate, which when loosened, lets you rotate the housing block.

      *      *      *      *      *      

Our pedals are provided with a beater made of a rubber compound that we feel adds an intense dynamic off the bass drum head. The housing block is drilled out with a few thousands inch variance to allow for different sized shafts if you prefer another type of beater. To set your beater height, use a standard drum key on the lug bolt.

Drumnetics Pedals are fully made in The U.S.A. They are machined out of high grade, billet aluminum at DMA Inc. in Charlotte, NC then hand assembled by yours truly    for a personal quality control in each pedal. If I wouldn't play my drums with any pedal we make, you won't either.

If you have any questions and or comments, send an email or give us a call. We'd be glad to work with you.

Many thanks everyone! 

Mike @ Drumnetics
