Sonor JoJo Mayer Single Pedal

Couldn't resist to try it out instead of going for the standard (DW9000). I'm used to play DW5000 accelerator model. This feels rather different but good different. Before making a decision whether to get one or not I first read a number of reviews. Many of them go back to first product release in 2012 and address issues mainly with the heel hinge. Sonor seem to be able to improve their products overtime as I didn't find any issue with this product at all. 5 stars for quality. Product came well packaged and was easy to set up. I started with default settings. Couple days later I was tempted to do small tweaks. Again all easy to set up. Pedal itself seems very sturdy despite the fact it is a single post construction. I personally like that extra space instead of second post. Pedal in action is very silent and feels very light. The light feel is also down to a beater used - e.g. when compared the pedal using original beater and DW beater, action with DW beater felt a lot heavier. No changes were made to settings like beater angle,spring tension or foot board angle. For those who are interested whether this pedal works with bass drums on risers (like Jungle kits) - yes it does, and actually better than DW5000 - personal opinion and experience. It also does work on a thin carpet but I think it works better on a firm surface. Overall I like this pedal enough for it to be my favorite go to option.
