A Custom Playing Experience from Day One
We drummers love to customize. The latest Mapex Falcon bass pedal offers the type of tailorability that today's players clamor for. Whether you play fast or hard (or both), the Falcon has the features to fine-tune your performance — from cool jazz to speed metal. Add beater weights for power, adjust the footboard for heel-up or heel-down applications, even swap out the Falcon's smooth chain drive for a snappy strap or direct-drive mechanism*. Wherever the music leads you, the Mapex Falcon can follow. New features include a sleeker, slimmer footboard for minimal impact on your setup and a smoother cam for maximum dynamic response. But fear not, set-and-forgetter. The Mapex Falcon bass pedal ships pre-configured from the factory for a great playing experience without tweaking.

Bottom: interchangeable drives sold separatelyEvolves as your needs do
There's no part of the Mapex Falcon bass pedal that can't be configured to your tastes. Raise the footboard to find a comfortable playing angle, then adjust the beater weight and angle to hone in on your preferred level of torque and power. Each adjustment is unlocked by a single drum-key screw. Players can further adjust resistance and even swap out the chains for a strap or direct-drive mechanism*, for a playing experience that evolves as your needs do.
Hangs with the fastest feet
For fast players, the bass pedal can feel like the bottleneck in a performance. So if you need a pedal that's built for speed, the Mapex Falcon should be high on your list. Take it from Sweetwater drummers — anything lacking when you play this pedal is on you.
Responds to dynamics
The Falcon is built not just for speed, but for dynamic accuracy as well. Dynamic players will love feeling the pedal kiss the head for soft strokes and pummel it for heavier passages.
Bulks up for added power
Included with the Falcon's reversible felt/rubber beater are a set of weights in 10g increments. Weights slip inside the beater head to add force to your attack and further personalize your playing experience.
Secures safely to all bass drums
The Falcon's Self-Adjusting Hoop Clamp adjusts to fit all hoops at any angle, protecting the hoop from damage and positioning the base plate flat on the floor.
Plays great out of the box
Don't let the Mapex Falcon bass pedal's high configurability scare you away. This pedal ships pre-configured by Mapex for a great playing experience out of the box. So whether you're looking for a pedal you can pore over or a solid performer from day one, Sweetwater is happy to recommend the Mapex Falcon to our drumming friends.
