Good silent pedal
tiagosc 20.04.2020
It does what you want it to do. However, the feeling is not the best (it is my first electronic kick pedal, so I also do not have another reference).

I use it with my Yamaha DTX Multi 12 and it works perfectly.
Pros:
- Silent
- Lightweight
Cons:
- "Feeling"
- Doesn't have a carpet adherent surface, which can be helpful so it doesn't fly around

If it is Yamaha it is very good
Davo Rock 10.12.2017
This is top notch. I real nice pedal to lay over the full dynamic spectrum. I am not sure how the sensor works in the pedal, there seems to be two, like tip heal?? But double hit slides, heal-toe hits are with greatest easy. I play guitar and drums at the same time with these. You can tap dance on them.
One side note is that when using a regular pedal and kick pad previously, You had the option of a extra pad via a pad out jack on the original kick pad! This is no longer an option, as this pedal uses the stereo outs from a module for best result. As I said, it has some kind of double sensor trigger??
It will operate while using it with just a mono jack, but not as responsive, so I adjusted the volume up and changed the dynamic response via my drum module. this is the way I use for setting up double kick.
I have 4 now and 6 more in the dream! I can still split a stereo out to two mono pedals so lots of possibilities.
The pedal has Brilliant Noise Level, but so good that it makes the pads sound loud by comparison? The illusive happy medium, You can never win!! No! this is a Big time winner with a great price. If it is Yamaha it is Good, Just like Thomann, a great deal 5 Stars!

Good enough!

For the price, you can't ask for more.
The only real problem I have with it is that the spring seems to lose strength very fast. But its nothing that can't be fixed easily by getting a new spring. There are some youtube tutorials on that.

All and all, its perfect for practice, but I wouldn't necessarily rely on it for live shows. I've used it with a Roland SPDX and it works great!

pretty decent
Bart C 03.12.2018
its been couple of weeks of heave use of silent kick pedal and my impressionas are follwoing:
+ it is silent
+ with some practise it allows to play at different dynamic levels
+ it's compact and easy to carry

- response far from real, too soft I would say

but taking into account price I find it great deal
