The new Falcon from Mapex is the smoothest bass drum pedal you’ll ever play. Every function and adjustment has been engineered to make Falcon feel as if it’s an extension of your foot. Elevate your performance to a new level and let your feet fly with Falcon from Mapex.
Because the Falcon’s footprint is more compact than other bass drum pedals, you’ll have more room to comfortably position your hi-hat and snare stands.
The Falcon’s easy-to-reach, resistance-free Talon clamp adjustment can be tightened with one hand from a seated position, making set-up quick and easy, even in the tightest spaces. The Falcon’s patented Talon bass drum hoop clamp features locking claws that move independently from the pedal frame. Even if your bass drum is pitched at a severe angle, the pedal’s remains flat to the floor and securely clamped to the drum for the utmost comfort and security.
The footboard and heel plate are hinged using an exclusive sealed bearing mechanism that offers zero resistance and secure operation with no lateral movement. The uniquely sculpted footboard allows you to position your foot at any angle and operate the pedal with minimal expended energy, making even the most intricate patterns seem effortless. The Falcon’s footboard design provides the feel of a longer board without the additional weight and mass. A lighter footboard gives you greater control with less fatigue.
Footboard angle and beater angle are independently adjustable, enabling you to fine tune your ideal combination of playing comfort and force of stroke.
Falcon’s dual-axle design ensures that both beaters strike the head with equal impact for consistent sound and incredible feel.
The Falcon is equipped with interchangeable cams to suit your playing style. The “Glide” cam offers an equal amount of inertia from the beginning to the end of the stroke, while the “Pursuit” cam is recommended for increased power and maximum impact.
By allowing the torque-free spring mechanism to move independently the Falcon’s stroke and recoil motions are exceptionally smooth.
The reversible beater head comes with interchangeable 10g and 20g inserts. By choosing one of these weights (or playing without any additional weight at all) you determine the desired degree of centrifugal force.
A sure-grip rubber base, adjustable spurs and an optional Velcro® strip ensure that the pedal will stay put on any surface.
The Falcon Double Pedal’s beaters are equidistantly positioned for an even response from primary to secondary beater. They can be laterally repositioned to accommodate larger beaters like the Mapex Tri-tonal beater.
The Falcon Double Pedal’s connecting rod can be extended from either end, making it easy to accommodate virtually any set-up.
Let your feet fly...Falcon from Mapex.
