ABSTRACT:
An improved foot pedal features a moveable heel piece and footboard with fore and aft motion along the pedal's base plate. By sliding the heel piece and footboard, the position of the top of the footboard can be changed in relation to the position of the pedal's wheel section, in turn changing the pulling direction of the chain which links the top of the footboard with the wheel section. By altering the pulling direction of the chain, the feel and action of the pedal is made relatively lighter or heavier allowing the drummer to customize the performance characteristics of the pedal beyond the typical range of the pedal adjustments.
