Great video and sentiment - I have been playing for 13 years, too. About 8 years ago I picked up a cheap Dixon double kick pedal. I still use the main pedal (in single configuration), despite other drummers saying I should upgrade, I have NEVER found a pedal with the same feel and response as that cheap old Dixon. It just plays exactly how I want it to. Done hundreds of gigs, loads of studio recordings, it's never failed me once.
I love how transparent you are talking about subjects such as this one. Your contributions to the drumming community are very much appreciated and needed my friend. Thank you!
I picked up a pearl P122 double kick pedal at a used music shop for $50. Since I’m a complete noob I was blaming those shitty pedals for my lack of ability. I’ve only been playing drums for just about a year now, and this vid really helped! I’m no longer eyeballing the same expensive shit everyone else on RUclips is trying to sell, and I’m re motivated to just get the most out of them!
That pedal was actually my main pedal for a few years! Got it for $50 from a local drum shop. I loved how simple it was, and the feel was so neutral compared to every modern bass drum pedal. I find that the action on new pedals is too focused on volume and power, not feel. The spring tension is almost always too high for me at the lowest possible tension. I eventually replaced it with the Sonor Perfect Balance.
Apart from the fact your one of the most incredible drummers on YT at the moment, I think the most impressive thing is the fact you stick to your guns and keep the videos in your own language, much respect 🤘
Tio, que le haz dado hasta con la silla a todo zoquete que piensa que por tener los mejores equipos del mercado y tener cierto conocimiento técnico del producto es la hostia, y pues haz demostrado con creces que la verdad no es así, que si bien el equipo caro puede tener una calidad superior en cuanto a materiales y propiedades, realmente el que marca la diferencia es uno como ejecutor y la práctica o técnica que se haya desarrollado con el tiempo, eres el puto amo! Siempre me llena de satisfacción ver videos así, en cual se demuestra lo que has echo.
Claro que los he tenido, y por supuesto que sé cómo se deterioran y pierden fiabilidad per quien se tiene que adaptar a los cambios es uno mismo, el pedal va a seguir deteriorándose, pero si nos enfocamos en mantener el beat sea cual sea el problema, seremos cada vez mejores, créeme que vengo de pedales súper básicos… incluso mi primer pedal fue hecho por mi, con piezas que no tenían nada que ver con batería…
What an awesome video! Dude you are so right, it's the drummer, not the gear. The best gigs I've ever played were with a kick, snare, hi-hat and a crash, and that was it. It really made me think about what I was playing and I had no choice but to make it work. There wasn't enough room in the venue's 😆 And I loved it! Been following your videos for a while and man you blow my mind ever time. Much love bro 🤘😝
I missed the first part of the video and watched the whole thing in Spanish just to realize you have it captioned. Went back to 0:00 and watched it again with captions, still just as entertained. You’re a beast sir. Love your stuff.
First of all huge respect to you and your unwavering dedication to the art of drumming. You have inspired me a lot by your mastery and humbleness. That's powerful. Now, I don't know if you just say "my grandpa used to say..." as a joke, but I think your grandpa really said those things, and the fact that you keep mentioning him and what he said says a lot about you and your respect towards him and towards family in general. I too repeat my grandpa's words often and he's been my role model all my life. Respect.
llevo tocando la bateria como 3 años, desde 3° de la ESO y aunque no tocaba a diario tocaba una vez a la semana y me desestresaba mucho durante el confinamiento no pude tocar y actualme te llevo una semana confinado y por ende sin tocar y ver tus covers hace que me desestrese y emocione como cuando toco yo asi que muchas gracias maquina ^^
I couldn't agree more my dude! I always wanted a Ken Smith bass, but they al cost around 6000 euros. I tried so many basses and i found an LTD (ESP Cheaper series) bass for 600 euros, with a bit of tweaking and adjustement, you could not tell the difference! I even did a blind test and everyone thought the cheap bass was the Ken Smith! It goes to show, you dont need to spend crazy money to get something good out of it! Respect to you and your awesome skills man! Peace!
Right on! I play expensive drums and cymbals because I like the way they sound. Hard to get cheap cymbals to sound good. A little easier to get cheap drums to sound "good" depending on what sound you're going for, but people always make fun of me for my hardware: All Yamaha beginner-level stuff. I've been playing for 26 years now and can still outrun most with my FP710, lol.
You should find an a really old camco pedal (Not the tama version) or a gretsch floating action pedal. They're strap drive pedals and some of the fastest vintage pedals ever made
Hola hombre, si te puedo recomendar covers que hacer, son estas: - Diana King - Shy Guy - Slipknot - Nameless - Arcturus - White Noise Monster (corta pero fabulosa) - Voyager - Wonderful Day (modern prog) Un saludo, respetos desde Lyon
100% true. The ONLY reason to spent more than $300 on a pedal is if you find that 'perfect feeling one' and want something that will last a lifetime, or at least comes with a lifetime warranty. Just don't buy the mass produced, super cheap no-brand ones - they wear out super quick and fall apart (learned that lesson more than once). I bought the Yamaha FP9 double pedal (direct drive), they are by far the most expencive pedals I've ever owned. I tried them out on a kit in the music store and loved the feel, so waited and found some second hand for less than $400 in perfect condition.🤘
Your videos are rad man, keep it up. I appreciate the subtitles coz I'm just an ignorant English and I love that you're repping for your mother tongue. Gracias!
Ah man! I’m already a big fan of your videos El Estepario Siberiano. Just love your playing and your attitude. But then to see a video featuring the same shitty pedal that I’ve been gigging and recording with for years just made me smile 😁 This is one of the reasons I always travel with a Leatherman tool- to keep fixing my pedal and trying to stop it from making squeaking and buzzing noises 🤣🤣🤣 Thank you for being awesome and also for helping me feel good about this old Yamaha pedal which is still getting good use all the way over here in South Africa. Drum tribe for life!!!
Damn you can see the years of dedication you have put into your craft. You make things look so easy , straight forward and either I spire us to play harder and practice harder. Mad respect , What a awesome person and fucking beast on that kit. Devil fingers to the fucking sky.
That sir, is what makes you ABSOLUTE TOP SHELF!! No truer words, if you can’t take so much more from that than just the pedal you’ll never get it. Thank you for being real, your my Chris Coleman…Rock On….We’re Listening ✌️😤🙏❤️
Amazing informational and super cool video, you are amazing! I finally found my answers regarding those high-end pedals! I've been playing since the beginning on Millennium PD-222 Pedals, but boy - I also have been able to play with them at high tempos and everyone was like - how do you do this? It is about the practice really and no Trick, Axis or Pearl Demon Drive will do the hard work for you. Only you and your feet. Only difference I would say is in fluency of those pedals. When I am using now DW 5000, it feels great and much fluent then the cheap one. Nicely said! Bravo, El Estepario!
FP9 definitely had way more power and clarity during the double strokes, like a huge difference it’s not even close. If you’re going to play and practice a lot a good direct drive pedal is absolutely worth the investment, especially something as high quality as a Yamaha.
LOL dude some of your sayings kill me man. "The wind is old as shit but it still blows" No puedo tocar la bateria como ti, o hablar espanol como ti, pero gracias a ti mejorare en ambos! Gracias por todo, estepario!
I switched from Pearl Eliminators (maximum adjustability) to Roland KT-10 electronic triggers (zero adjustability). It took some time to get used to the spring tension and range of movement but I can do everything with them now that I used to be able to do with my Eliminators...
Those old Yamaha pedals, I think that's an FP6110A, are absolutely great. I think you've demonstrated that brilliantly. It's nice if you can afford a fancy pedal with features, great. But the cheap Yamaha you can get on eBay for £30 and is light (great for gigs) and works fine. It's all about the skill.
Excellent comparison! Skills are great things to have, and then we depend less on the gear. Plus for kick pedal, even new, there are really good ones for around 50 USD.
El Estepario Siberiano, I thank you *very much* for making this video. As a beginning drummer, I appreciate your demonstration and your advice! Muchas gracias!
It's the drummer, not the pedal. However, I do need to say that it's a whole different experience playing a crappy pedal vs playing a good pedal. With a good pedal, you can forget about it and just let your body do it's thing. Bad pedal will make you fight it to gwt what you beed from it. The good thing about everything I said is that those good pedals I'm talking about cost 300-400$ max! So we don't need to sell our kidneys to get one. I've been playing Tama Speed Cobra for years now, and that thing is actually cheap compared to some other high end pedals, but it's an absolute joy to play (I feel that way, you may prefer other pedals). Great video, message on point! 👏👏👏
Eeeee x fin estepario bien venido .lo bueno que fue x trabajo y eso no se deja de lado es lo que nos mantiene asique gracias x volver a hacer videos se te extrañaba abrazo grande sos un gran motivador gracias x estar ahí como siempre
One of the best down to earth drummers on youtube. Appreciate the content you put out bro. Kinda have me re thinking things in my daily routine after watching your day in the life video. Cheers!
I read a heap of the comments...( Note: I have a shit ton of respect for this guy as a drummer).....and I came to the conclusion ....as a know nothing, new to drumming kinda guy... Im absorbing and goin with everything Mr El Estepario Siberiano just demonstrated to me.... I have a old single Yamaha on my YD acoustic kit and a DW3000 on my DTX 750 e-drums.. I think they will do me for awhile... back to practice.. :-)
Growing up with the strap driven pedals of the 80's witnessing the efficiency of the clock spring loaded pedal known as the "Ghost", it's all in the performers ability to manipulate the tool to maximum efficiency.
I've played cheap old Yamahas with straps in school and they felt really great. That is propably thanks to the strap itself. Less friction etc. Now I have Falcon and I am happy. I've tried Axis once but the DD feel wasn't for me. Belts or double chain fit me the best.
Thus video just proves that expensive pedals are luxuries that can enhance performance BUT Really it's The Ability oF the Player. Capability 90% & 10% perhaps the quality of your tools/instruments
Remember kids, it’s not about the gear, it’s about technique, practice and passion. Money won’t buy you speed and control. But, to be fair, they will help you with ease of setup and continuity. Good pedals last longer. Btw, Gregg Bissonette proved it by doing a world clinic tour with the cheapest Mapex double pedal. He did all right, but he had to replace them twice with new ones, because they couldn’t stand the prolonged beating Thank you very much for telling the truth out loud with your actions.
The only expensive pedals that seem worth it are the ACD Unlimited Darwin pedals. Most of the cost id assume is due to the small company/low production number part, but it’s amazing to see how many metal drummers have jumped ship from Axis and Czarcie Kopyto to ACD. They also make some killer upgrades for pedals. I own their Ultimate Driveshaft and it’s a night and day difference from stock.
It's like my guitars, they are considered cheap guitars, but they are not bad guitars. Most of them I got at pawn shops for very little. Some might have some defects of intonation, but I can still make them sound good. I have wanted to get a guitar that is in the $1600 range, so I can get tones and action that may not be present in a cheaper guitars. But my playing comes from practice, or not practicing.
I don't even play drums or speak Spanish fluently and this is quickly becoming a favorite channel. It's like coming here for my daily philosophy lesson.
I loved the plot twist. I'd love to get your take on cymbal stacks, some stacks you use (if you use them) which ones you like etc. Or even if you have experience with it, your approach to building your own stacks with ala-carte cymbals purchased individually.
I very much agree with you on this. Pedals are all about practice Now that being said I use the TAMA Dyna Syncs... I used DW3000s for roughly 5-6 years before that... I dont play "Extreme music" But I really like them because they feel amazing. the double pedal version runs about $700 USD... and the single(First one I bought) Runs about 370ish USD... I also Play DW drums because I think they sound the best... But like you said thats its all about ME... I spent a little extra to get what I wanted. I was in no way influenced by any other drummer or spokes person. I bought want I bought because I liked it. Also I have used that Yamaha ED9 pedal and its fucking amazing too... It was my second choice. Keep it up bud. I love your videos you are an amazing drummer!
si estoy de acuerdo , lo único que yo en mi experiencia personal al cambiar mi doble pedal , note una gran diferencia, ya que en el viejo los tiempos de respuesta de ambos pedales no eran los mismos y los pies trabajaban de forma diferente. Con el nuevo pedal logre mejorar ya que consigo hacer los ejercicios de forma correcta
Loved the video mate! And loved the message also! Got some trick pedals a couple of years back because I wanted long boards and I hated it! Direct drive didn’t feel comfortable to me at all, too light and the response wasn’t good for me.....after a while I switched by to my old iron cobras. I know they too are not shit, but I just like how they feel better!! 💪🏻
Gran parte de problema es el estado del pedal antiguo, un buen mantenimiento una buena aceitada, cambio de rodaje y ese pedal anda para mucho mas! grande crack
Pedal preference is just what makes you, the player, the most comfortable. They can all do the same thing once adjusted but different pedals can provide a different feel. If the coach is shit, the most talented players still won't win. Great video. How about a System of a Down cover of Question next
perfect lesson - a beginner will play like a beginner, whether he's got a $100 marketplace kit or a $10k dream kit. this applies to for almost everything.
I have the fp9 double drive and it's like butter. I actually have to start from scratch with my left foot because of the massive weight difference from my old dw7000s
I speak Español pero los subtitles en English de verdad add some valor añadido to the Estepario Siberiano RUclips Experience! This was definitely one of your funniest videos!

A good carpenter never blames his tools!!!
A good carpenter takes care of his tools every day
You are as good as your tools
Our master shows that the old pedal is still kicking
I love how transparent you are talking about subjects such as this one. Your contributions to the drumming community are very much appreciated and needed my friend. Thank you!
Reading the captions has me lol'ing in tears sometimes.
I go off on my eqp like that too
The dislikes are from people who blew $1,000 on a pedal 😂
Guilty 😂😂😂
LOL
Lol!!!!!
Gotta be smart and just find decent pedals on the used market, managed to get some DW9000s for $300 on eBay in good condition
@@jadonchacon got a Pearl Eliminator (dual chain) for $125, wonderful condition
He’s right, Bonham got it done on an old Ludwig pedal, and everyone should reach out and give those elderly beaters a friendly handshake!
Amen Bro..I am 61 and i used that pedal for years. All in the foot an calve muscle Y'all...........
not to mention wearing actual shoes

Comprate un doble pedal económico, dale uso considerabley después fijate la poca respuesta que empieza a dar el pedal izquierdo
Claro que los he tenido, y por supuesto que sé cómo se deterioran y pierden fiabilidad per quien se tiene que adaptar a los cambios es uno mismo, el pedal va a seguir deteriorándose, pero si nos enfocamos en mantener el beat sea cual sea el problema, seremos cada vez mejores, créeme que vengo de pedales súper básicos… incluso mi primer pedal fue hecho por mi, con piezas que no tenían nada que ver con batería…

durante el confinamiento no pude tocar
y actualme te llevo una semana confinado
y por ende sin tocar
y ver tus covers hace que me desestrese y emocione como cuando toco yo
asi que muchas gracias maquina ^^
Solución: comprar una batería electrónica.
A mí me funciona de lujo.
Not just great advice on drum pedals, but great advice for life.

Half the time I find my self watching for your videos for the commentary more than the actually drumming. You crack me up, keep up the good work!
Que gran video!!! en Mexico decimos, "el perico donde sea es verde" significa que uno mismo es el del talento!
Dude, I have never busted up so hard watching drumming videos before. Even through subtitles, your sense of humor is fucking epic, rock on!!
Loving the English subtitles. Thanks for taking the time to translate for us.

I very much agree with you on this. Pedals are all about practice Now that being said I use the TAMA Dyna Syncs... I used DW3000s for roughly 5-6 years before that... I dont play "Extreme music" But I really like them because they feel amazing. the double pedal version runs about $700 USD... and the single(First one I bought) Runs about 370ish USD... I also Play DW drums because I think they sound the best... But like you said thats its all about ME... I spent a little extra to get what I wanted. I was in no way influenced by any other drummer or spokes person. I bought want I bought because I liked it. Also I have used that Yamaha ED9 pedal and its fucking amazing too... It was my second choice.
Keep it up bud. I love your videos you are an amazing drummer!
si estoy de acuerdo , lo único que yo en mi experiencia personal al cambiar mi doble pedal , note una gran diferencia, ya que en el viejo los tiempos de respuesta de ambos pedales no eran los mismos y los pies trabajaban de forma diferente. Con el nuevo pedal logre mejorar ya que consigo hacer los ejercicios de forma correcta
Como siempre EL MEJOR DE LOS MEJORES...
Tengo curiosidad con los pedales, que ahora tienen tensión magnética 🧲
Saludos desde 🇨🇴
Loved the video mate! And loved the message also! Got some trick pedals a couple of years back because I wanted long boards and I hated it! Direct drive didn’t feel comfortable to me at all, too light and the response wasn’t good for me.....after a while I switched by to my old iron cobras. I know they too are not shit, but I just like how they feel better!! 💪🏻
Gran parte de problema es el estado del pedal antiguo, un buen mantenimiento una buena aceitada, cambio de rodaje y ese pedal anda para mucho mas! grande crack
Pedal preference is just what makes you, the player, the most comfortable. They can all do the same thing once adjusted but different pedals can provide a different feel. If the coach is shit, the most talented players still won't win. Great video. How about a System of a Down cover of Question next
Eres genial. Una inspiración Estepario
when defending the social-economic ins and outs of said bourgeios revolutions.. both pedals made very good points
perfect lesson - a beginner will play like a beginner, whether he's got a $100 marketplace kit or a $10k dream kit. this applies to for almost everything.
Me gusta cuando unes tu agilidad musical con tu agilidad con el humor
Bro no tocó batería pero me entretiene mucho tus vídeos. Estaría bueno que hicieras más videos así!! Saludos.
Decent gear makes it easier to learn, but it´s very much a diminishing returns situation.
I have the fp9 double drive and it's like butter. I actually have to start from scratch with my left foot because of the massive weight difference from my old dw7000s
Jajjajajaj jajajaj este video me hizo el dia! Aguante @elestepariosiberiano!
I speak Español pero los subtitles en English de verdad add some valor añadido to the Estepario Siberiano RUclips Experience! This was definitely one of your funniest videos!
