[@Cognitoman]

[@AnkothOfficial]

It's a completely different way to go about double bass. It's a device that has a learning curve of its own, and many drummers cheat with this pedal by putting no power in and instead triggering their drums. Some people can do some good stuff with them, though, like quad bass.

[@RyoCanCan]

​@@AnkothOfficial Saying triggering is cheating is dumb tbh. It's a must at high speeds as you can't hit the drum with enough power for long periods of time at higher tempos.

[@AnkothOfficial]

@Ortho-leaning Really? Tell that to Dave Lombardo, Nico Mcbrain, Gene Hoglan, and many of the old school drummers who somehow managed to do so just fine without any shortcuts. Thrash metal drummers play at high speeds without triggers all the time, yet they sound good. On the flip side, you get all the crappy modern metal (core/tech/djent) drummers who flex their drumming skills and shit but half of them use triggers to shortcut their way into achieving the desired velocity and consistency, leading to drums that sound the same with every hit and have no life or dynamics to them. Why would you bother micing up a bass at that point and not just get an electronic pad? That would save you so much space and money and the sound engineer's wouldn't have to mic up and fuck around with a drum you'll never really use, since you'll just replace it with a sample.

[@RyoCanCan]

@@AnkothOfficial Oh boohoo. It's the 21st century boomer, get on with the times. Music is not a competition, there's no cheating. Also, Dave Lombardo didn't play 260bpm 16th notes. Oh well, too bad.

Rdavidr you got case money !? Whoa..

[@oneleg29]

You have just relieved an underlying anxiety issue that I’ve had for 4 years. LOL. I purchased this pedal only because of the claim of producing doubles with a single pedal and because I am also an above the knee amputee (left leg). Man I buried myself into this pedal for 3 weeks straight and actually started to get it. That flies out the window the minute that you go back to a standard single pedal. Your quote is true, one must commit completely to this pedal only. I have come to the conclusion that I don’t need to rip double bass that much. Carry on……

[@publicprofilename4273]

And that's what drummers do. What? No leg? No arm? or like me, blind? We be ahight, we got this!

[@uglypinkeraser]

I always loved the old Sonor Giant Step pedal. Its a double pedal with a heel lever and a toeboard lever, if you had the stamina to play heel up all the time its super rad!

[@AnkothOfficial]

Play around with your floor Tom. Getting more bass out of your Floor Tom tone and getting it more punchy, then hitting it with a stick between your kick hits, will create the illusion of double bass drumming. Moreover, it will sound better than any double bass pedal as you're using two drums. There's a reason why amazing double bass drummers like dave lombardo, Gene hoglan, Paul Bostaff, etc. Don't use double pedals and instead use two drums with regular single pedals - according to an interview with Dave Lombardo, he basically said that if you're hitting one drum over and over again fast, you're deadening the previous hit with the next hit, as this next hit will essentially stop the drum playing, which means you don't get as good and full of a sound as using two drums, where both drums get hit independently and get to ring out nicely before the next hit, giving a fuller tone. You can also use two different sized drums or tune them differently to get more nuanced sounds. The floor tom trick is pretty popular, but a drummer who uses this really well is El Estepario Siberiano, who even covers metal songs that contain loads of double bass drumming with one foot, using his floor tom as a second bass drum. Recently, I've also seen that he put up a bigger bass/gong drum up on legs like a floor tom to be able to get those sounds easier.

The Dualist has been occasionally making some fuss in the metal community for something like 10 years. For every one person who can *Kind* of play it, you have 500 others who wouldn't even bother because of how inarticulate and un-intuitive it is. The fact that most drummers can't name a single notable drummer who uses regularly should say enough. Also, even when you learn to play it correctly - you need to use triggers of some variety to make up for the totally inconsistent power that the pedal produces. Which of course artificially inflates the price to use the pedals in any sort of environment where your bass drum needs to be heard.

I used the D3 when I recorded with my old band. The pedal is unique and you do need to make adjustments so the beater strikes are consistent.

I know a guy who epoxied a shoe to his one so that he could have some control on the upstroke. It actually worked pretty well until one show when he forgot his carpet and the bass drum started creeping forward, we all thought he was going to get dragged with it and have a horrible time but he was able to yank using his foot and drag the drum back into position. The downfall came after 25 mins of pushing and pulling, the shoe became unstuck and then he couldn't play properly, or drag the drum back from the edge of the riser. Fond memories.

The only drummer I know by name who uses one of these regularly is Will Calhoun of Living Colour: He uses two kicks, his main is a 22 with a Sleishman double pedal (the pedal where both pedals are offset from the center) and a 20 on his left with this Duallist pedal. It's an interesting design and he makes it work, but I don't think I would ever buy this for myself as it doesn't feel natural for me or like something I'd personally have a use for. But if it suits you then by all means go for it!

It takes practice and proper adjustments to get it right. I have 2, 1 for each bass drum. There awesome at some things and limited on others. For the most part, there awesome. The plastic is hight quality and I haven't had any issues and have had them for years. If you want triplets try the triple dualist. Amazing but again limited to certain notes. That's if you can find one. Where did you buy that? Dualist has been out of business for years. No one has them except for the place you bought yours. If your lucky and want to pay huge money you can occasionally find used pedals. I'm using 3 bass drums and have the triple on the third for when I want to do triplets. Quite complex but again adjust the spring tensions, straps and they will both hit well. They have a ton of adjustments especially the triple pedal. So it takes time to get them in the sweet spot. Try metal ball beater's they help make it louder. The triple needs to come with it's own engineer to get the adjustments right. You should try the triple, your minds will blow. Good luck.

For example: song has a continuous bongo and/or conga pattern * and * 16ths on tambourine during the chorus? Mount a tamb. on a Gajate bracket, and attach it to the Duallist. Now you can do both at once! Yes, this pedal has issues with feel (and requires A LOT of fine-tuning) due to the design, and requires the player to concentrate on the upstroke just as much as the down... but it has its place.

The dualist does not replace a regular pedal but goes great right next to one. you just clamp both to a board and slip that under the kick drum. You can make the 2nd beater hit the drum a little quicker than the first for some really sweet swinging galuping sounds.

Great video! You can feel the frustration!

[@allstarsteve1]

Just something else for you guys to master great vid

[@davisdeluca4324]

Nice to see u two guys together...2 points of views...interesting device...thanks for the entertainment and advice guys!!

[@gjcart26]

You two are great. Thanks for this

[@rdavidr]

Appreciate it man🤘

[@ricardogarcia1456]

I’ve been looking for one of these for so long!!!

[@FrankPCarpi]

That's pretty cool that you can control the pedal as a single or a double.

[@fabianernestopacheco]

I haven't seen this pedal for a decade! Awesome testing!

[@Drums4Freaks]

Thanks for that honest and hilarious review 😆

[@nickcarter4006]

I feel so gratified seeing this pedal so many years later and seeing what a load of GOOP this thing is

[@alanrankin1907]

Never watched your videos before and I was laughing the whole first minute because of ingenious editing 🤣

[@elvissorna8861]

I always dreamed of something like this, but with a bicycle pedal

[@rdavidr]

that would be insane 😂

[@stuartcrossley5305]

I was 30 sec away from buying one of these. Think you just saved me a nice wad of cash thanks fellas. You don't always get to play your own kit and I'd imagine going back to a regular pedal would be a struggle at an unfamiliar gig. I think the concept is a good idea and I can see where they're aiming but don't think the juice is worth the squeeze. Thanks a bunch

I bought the dualistic back in 2006. The pedal actually felt way better than my stock Pearl as a single and the double action was pretty good considering the limitations. I never had the same issues they are having in this video in double mode. It was really easy to play. I sold the pedal two years later as I was ready to move on to a true double pedal. I bought an iron cobra power glide. The foot board was too short and I tried everything to like the iron cobras, but they just weren't for me. I sold those two years later and bough axis longboards. Still kicking the axis. Love them.

You guys just broke the internet lol, this is one of the funniest things to watch 🤣 🤘🤘

[@TimeNfeel91]

Dude I’ve seen this pedal in the back of Modern Drummer for years in the ad section… I’ve never actually seen it in action. Thanks!

[@mightyV444]

That was fun! Thank you guys! 😄👍 Maybe also try one of those 'single double' pedals where you play the 'second' pedal with your heel! 😀

[@rdavidr]

I actually have one of those too, believe it or not. its WAY harder than the duallist haha

[@mightyV444]

@@rdavidr - Oh wow! I would've suspected the opposite! No wonder then the first time I'd ever heard of its existence was through someone selling theirs! 😄 *Happy New Year* David! 😀

[@THRASHMETALFUNRIFFS]

This is pretty hilarious like right handed guitarist trying to play left handed or something. I'd like to see Dave Lombardo with 2 of these!
