Ep. 20 How to Set Up Your Bass Drum Pedal

Brace yourselves! This isn't some 60 second "fix it fast" video but that's not really our style anyway. If you stick around for the full video, you'll get the most value out of it and walk away with a better understanding of how to set up your bass drum pedal to work with your playing, regardless of your preferred technique. If you following along with your pedal in hand, you can make adjustments as we go through the video.

Yes, this video strays a bit away from our previous topics focused entirely on sound, though we've had some requests to produce a video about pedal setup in order to get the most out of your gear. Consider this video a lesson/guide to bass drum pedal setup, regardless of the pedal you've got.

A couple of revisions to note:
Yes, we know about the "heal" vs. "heel" typos. Ben knows how to spell but is no longer allowed to have more than one cup of coffee (or maybe he needs more...) while editing.

Also, the description at 9:10 for the higher tension and altered beater angle should reference being better for heel up, burying the beater, and a muffled drum rather than the opposite.
