The consensus among Sweetwater drummers is this: if you've never played a direct-drive double-bass drum pedal, you need to try DW's DWCPMDD2XF. DW packed years of meticulous engineering into the DWCPMDD2XF, and it shows. Machined from solid aluminum, the DWCPMDD2XF gives you smooth, effortless action, courtesy of DW's innovative Fulcrum Geometry linkage. In fact, it's loaded with cool, drummer-centric features such as its perforated footboards with contoured heel plate, interlocking Delta hinge, Tri-Pivot Swivel Toe-Clamp, Vertical Sliding Spring Adjustment, control beater with adjustable weight/impact, and more. Factor in a pair of extended XF longboards for increased range underfoot and added room for slide doubles, and the DW MDD Machined Direct Drive double bass pedal offers one of the most primo playing experiences money can buy. If you've been wondering what a direct-drive kick pedal can do for your drumming, you'll find the definitive answer in the DW DWCPMDD2XF.

What’s So Great About Buying Drums from Sweetwater?


What do you want from a kick pedal?





In the design of the DWCPMDD2XF, DW reconsidered the role of the bass drum pedal in the kit. What do you want from your pedal? Fluidity, first of all. You want it to be an extension of your body, your mind ? or preferably, your subconscious! As a driver of the music, it needs to be ultra-responsive, and the direct-drive DWCPMDD2XF certainly is that. Whether you're feathering kicks in your fusion combo or driving a djent juggernaut, the DWCPMDD2XF can ace the gig. We realize that kick pedals are highly personal, but the DWCPMDD2XF is so outstanding, it deserves your serious consideration.





Direct drive for quick, responsive feel





Direct-drive pedals have a solid linkage between the footboard and beater assembly, which obviates the need for a traditional cam. This eliminates the slight lag time that can occur with a chain- or strap-drive model, giving you a quick and responsive feel that's ideal for any musical style ? and particularly appreciated by fleet-footed metal drummers. The smooth surface of the DWCPMDD2XF's perforated solid-aluminum XF footboard is perfect if you're a drummer who slides your foot forward to play double and triple strokes a la Dave Weckl.
