great sensitivity
 
"I have to admit, I'm pretty excited about using the Hyper-Bass unit as I get used to the feel. I think that I may like to get a 2ND H.B. pedal and really try to develop some technique on the pedals. Once you become more use to controlling the up stroke,(the"neuromuscular aspect of it, to my understanding") all of it can become as fluid as the article mentions. My band members have all ready noticed and commented on the pedal as making a positive difference. Great sensitivity!"

I really enjoy the H.B. pedal, Thanks

*J.C. has since purchased a 2nd Hyper-Bass

great product and service
 
"Hyper-Bass is working out well even at my low volume. I use a variety of devices to produce live drum sounds and the Hyper-bass is one of these tools."
 
Thanks for the great product and service!

the double beats it lets you do are just killer

"I had a chance to play this MAGNIFICENT PEDAL and I love it. The double beats it lets you do are just killer, i stopped by big Rons house for a personal demonstration on the pedal, and personal service he gives is super. I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND this pedal to everyone who loves to go fast, and even if you dont this is a great piece of equipment at a very reasonable price."

Thanks Big Ron !!

the H-B pedal is equal to any bass drum trigger set up I've played on

"I am the proud owner of one of chef Ron's sweetest creations!! The dynamic range and triggering accuracy the 'Hyper-Bass' pedal is equal to any bass drum trigger set up I've played on. Just one of the beautiful features of this pedal is that the absence of a beater and pad make placement and set up a breeze. You can put it anywhere!
If you're an acoustic player and looking to add electronic for special sounds, or straight up electronic kit all the way, this pedal needs to be in your arsenal of secret weapons. Works with any module! All you double kick speed demons out there will go nuts over the double trigger mechanism. This unique feature allows a signal on the up and down stroke of the pedal! Wow! "

I couldn't be happier with my Hyper-Bass pedal.

I had it adjusted to work perfectly for the way I play
 
My name is David Minton I am the drummer for a very busy casino variety band the "Red Hot Smokin' Aces". We generally play in Nevada and sometimes in California and Oregon. The band website is www.redhotsmokinaces.com with links to our my space page where you can hear our music. Here are some of Drumslinger Dave's thought's on the Conversion kit.

HYPER-BASS A must have item!

Hey man, do you feel like all the young drummers are passing you by because of the hours they can spend practicing double bass? Have you worked and worked and just can't get the lightening fast double foot work? Do you feel like you aren't getting the right response from your e-drums to make the double bass set up comfortable? How about adding the latest thing for electronic drummers. The new Hyper-Bass double trigger products are the solution to a lot of problems.

Hyper-bass makes a great pre-made electronic pedal and if you really like the feel of your favorite pedal, they even make a conversion kit. My first one is a conversion kit for one of my matching DW7000 pedals. It only took me about five minutes to set it up and attached it. A few days later I figured out exactly how I wanted it to feel and with another 5 minutes I had it adjusted to work perfectly for the way I play.

You can use it for your main pedal by inserting a footswitch into the line for the top trigger to turn it off and on, but I decided to use my first Hyper-Bass as a second pedal sitting next to my right foot pedal. This allows me to slide from pedal to Hyper-Bass and back literally between beats if I wish, giving me punchy bass drum licks on call anytime. The more I use it, the more I like it. For solos, it gives you that thunder on the bottom and leaves your left foot free to play the Hi-hats. Gee it's kinda like having three feet. Another great use is those big build up or "popcorn" endings boosting the overall sound of your kit while you are slamming cymbals and rolling across the toms. It's just COOL!

I keep saying my first Hyper-Bass because I'm buying a second one to set next to my HiHat pedal and use for 8th note tamborine and cow bell parts. You know--MORE COW BELL! I just haven't decieded if I'm getting another conversion unit or if I'm going all the way and buy the fabulous pre-made Hyper-Bass Electronic Pedal. My conversion kit was only $79.99 and they sell the pre-made pedal for $174.99, both with free shipping. That's a Great deal!

I found this pedal to be amazing
 
"About a year ago, I suffered from an anterior spinal infarction, in Lehman’s terms, a stroke to my spinal cord. I could not move my legs. I am a drummer, and thought that I would no longer be able to play the drums again and I was very disappointed. I have been in an intense physical therapy program and have gotten a good amount of movement back in my legs. Yet, I was still not able to play my drum set. My brother looked into finding me an alternative, and came Ron and his Hyper-Bass pedal. I started to play with this alternative pedal. Because of my limited movement, I found it quite difficult at first, but I was not going to give up on drumming that easily. After a couple of days of practice I found this pedal to be amazing. I am now drumming again; it feels great to do so, and all thanks to Hyper -Bass for making this possible."

better than I had imagined
 
"Before I heard about the Hyper-Bass conversion kit, I began to draw-up plans in my head for some sort of double-trigger kick pedal. When I read about Hyper-Bass and saw the images and demo on their website, it was exactly what I was looking for---better than I had imagined. I have the conversion kit mounted to a DW9000. Works like a charm!"
 
Thanks!

I don't want to give away my big secret
 
"Indeed, I'm almost reluctant to tell you how awesome the Hyper-Bass pedal is, because I don't want to give away my big secret! I can play sixteenth bass-notes so freakin' fast now - and EFFORTLESSLY - it's just nuts. People are constantly amazed. And yet it's still musical and in-time. This is a brilliant invention."   Zen James - Thanks  JWL

The Hyper-Bass pedal is INCREDIBLE and has made me look like a major hero to my audience and band alike. They can't believe how fast and precisely I can play.
 
Thanks again

more dynamic foot pedal rhythm

"I play guitar and piano and have always had a heavy foot when it comes to keeping time.  The last couple of years, I have experimented, useing a Roland TD-6 drum brain.  I have approximately 7 pedals that I now use.  Since purchasing your double trigger, I  intend to convert all my pedals to your trigger except for the base drum pedal.  I am extremely happy with the triggers (Hyper-Bass) and their mechanical functionality.  I would recommend this component to anyone, and especially single instrument players who want to add a more dynamic foot pedal rhythm to their sound."

Thanks

I use my hyper-bass pedal as a regular pedal
 
"I use my hyper-bass pedal as a regular pedal, using only with the bottom trigger. I chose it because you can select between three spring tensions, and three levels of beater-hardness. The pedal really works well: it's smooth, quiet, and it triggers well. Using one with the bottom trigger only is really a great and inexpensive alternative to a conventional pedal/kick trigger."

the Hyper-Bass kicks ASS
 
"I have used the Hyberbass pedal as both a single and double kick pedal as well as a a pedal Hihat and tambourine (like a real Hihat with a tambourine on the top) and using two as double kick and I have to say that the Hyperbass kicks ASS!!! Don't hesitate to work with Ron- he is class!!! *non-paid endorsement"
