Mapex “Raptor” Direct Drive Bass Drum Pedal
The Mapex “Raptor” Direct Drive Bass Drum Pedal is a pro quality design that combines the security and the inherent momentum of a direct drive linkage while maintaining the smooth, even feel of a chain drive pedal. The direct drive "pushes" the footboard back on rebound, giving the pedal a more direct response, dynamic action and a great sense of speed. This design has been the basis for several of the most widely-used bass drum pedals in drum hardware history.
Incorporated into the Raptor are advanced Mapex pedal features including a suspended, torque-free spring mechanism, bass drum beaters with interchangeable weights, a smaller pedal footboard and of course, the direct drive linkage. This combined formula results in a pedal with incredible flexibility and a feel that’s unbelievably responsive and fluid.
The Raptor P900D also comes with a soft case for carrying or storage.
Let’s review the key features:
• The smaller pedal footprint allows for a better and closer placement of the snare stand or other nearby hardware.
• The bass drum beater comes with a 10g weight. The 10g weight can be changed to a 20g or you might prefer no weight at all.
• The drive system is a Mapex direct drive which insures power, accuracy, stability and reliability.
• The Raptor tension spring mechanism is suspended. There is no binding and the design minimizes any resistance.
• Adjustable beater angle.

The new Mapex Raptor is available in a single and a double model. Once you play it, you’ll understand immediately why the Mapex Raptor is the only pedal with "direct drive appeal and a chain drive feel."
