The Rock Pedal is a fantastic bass pedal. I spent days going over review after review of the "big three" (Omega, Destroyer, Rock) before finally settling with this one. As of right now, it's been a few weeks and I must say I'm pretty happy with it, although my sentiments weren't the same when I first got it.

First off, let me say, if you're not an experienced drummer or if you have no patience, don't bother trying to adjust the pedal. Jordan, who I'm guessing is the RP inventor, makes youtube videos on how to adjust it, and he whips right through it "oh it's easy, you just do this, this and bam you're done". The problem is not everyone has adjusted a bass pedal, so after seeing him do it so easy while you spend an hour trying to find the perfect calibration gets pretty tiring.

So after the first time of getting it calibrated, I was ready to see how this thing could handle a song with lots of heavy pounding bass, so I chose Indestructible, which is one I had gold starred before getting this pedal. Much to my dismay, apparently I didn't tighten it enough and it just sank to the bottom and never came back about halfway through.

However, after spending another good amount of time getting it calibrated, and making sure the bolts are super tight, it's been absolutely perfect. It's been a couple weeks now and I have a roommate who loves to play super hard and stomp the hell out of it for whatever reason and several other friends of mine have used it, loved it and had no problems. It took some getting used to but now I could never go back.

PROS: Unbreakable no-contact sensor, heavy duty construction, DOES NOT SLIDE on carpets, very willing and supportive customer service team.

CONS: Initial adjustments were incredibly painstaking but in the end, totally worth it.

I purchased this pedal to replace the stock ION Drum Rocker pedal. This pedal is quiet, responsive and completely adjustable. Hands down the best pedal you can get for Rock Band 1&2.

It takes a little getting used to compared to the stock Rock Band plastic pedal or the stock ION Drum Rocker pedal since it takes a little more pressure to push the pedal down. This is not a bad thing at all. You can adjust the pedal and make it easier to push, as well as the pedal height. This means you can shorten the distance between the pedal and the sensor. Also, another big plus with Rock Pedal is the people behind it. I have emailed questions to them and gotten immediate responses.

I cannot recommend this pedal enough. If you're frustrated with loud or broken pedals, missed notes or if you just want a better drumming experience, this is the last pedal you will ever need.

I've had this pedal for approximately nine months. I've broken two springs because I like my tension high so I can rest my foot on the pedal without it triggering. It is hard to set the tension high without putting too much stress on the spring resulting in it breaking. Be prepared to essentially take your foot off of the pedal between each beat.

There is a magnet in the bottom of the foot pedal that, when pushed down, triggers the pedal. This was originally glued in and it just fell out of mine. Not a big deal I just glued it back in. The pedal is built tough though.

The pedal has a 12 month "no bs" warranty. I asked for a spring replacement four weeks ago. It took him a week to respond and he said that he had a back injury but will immediately mail it to me. Well, three weeks later I still don't have it. I e-mailed him again last week and I have not heard anything.

In conclusion, the spring tends to break when set to a high tension. My magnet fell out but I just glued it back in. Luckily, I didn't lose it. The customer service was not that great considering that it was a "12 month no bs" warranty and it was heavily advertised on their website. I do not know if there is a better substitute as this is the only pedal I have tried.

I happen to own this very pedal for my first bass pedal ever on my real drum kit. While it certainly is a HUGE upgrade over the rubbish stock pedal that comes with the RB2 kit, it is also one of the worst pedals you can buy for a drum kit.

Pulse is an entry level drum hardware company, and they don't exactly have a reputation for pedal feel. If only they'll make a peripheral out of the DW9000 pedal!

Thus, if you've NEVER dedicated any long term investments in real drums before, this pedal will serve you well. If you're an experienced drummer looking to replicate the real deal experience on Rock Band, you're in for a disappointment!

I bought this pedal as a replacement for the ION Drum Rocker. I cannot yet speak to its long-term durability, but my initial impression of it is great. High quality look and feel. Fully adjustable. Quiet.
