The Yamaha DFP9D is a direct-drive, double kick-drum pedal. Designed for pro stage and studio use, the pedal sports a direct-drive design to bolster power, control, and kick response. Its cam can be switched into three different positions, allowing you to fine tune the pedal’s performance for your desired predilections.
A patented axle-stabilizing bearing chamber facilitates smooth action, and a low-profile stabilizing hinge provides a fluid experience on the foot-board. You can also easily adjust other aspects of the kick pedal to better suit your preferences such as the beater angle and foot-board angle. Additionally, tweaking the tension of the pedal’s spring is straightforward with a prominent auto-lock spring adjustment knob at the foot of the pedal.
The secondary pedal sports universal joints that include ball bearings in the axes. This fosters a smooth rotation that bolsters the action and operation of the secondary pedal. Its foot-board also sports spikes to prevent slipping. Brass and aluminum beater-weights are included, as is a semi-hard carrying case.
