how to fit a direct drive pedal to strike Kick drum?
« on: September 15, 2018, 02:18:50 PM »
I'm having trouble fitting a yamaha fp9500D to my bass drum. The attachment stand/plate isnt long enough so when I fit the pedal the cam catches on the rim. then I move the pedal far enough away so the it swings freely there is only about half inch of contact so the pedal works loose in no time.

Any ideas if i'm missing something obvious like an adjustments on the kick drum bracket or something? or would I need to extend the "hoop" in some way? ...dont know how though???

thanks

Beany
