I recently purchased a Gibraltar Prowler Series double kick pedal, and now the beater tends to bounce multiple times when I strike the bass drum, giving a very uneven sound. Prior to this I was using a cheap Sonor pedal and had no such trouble. One difference between these two pedals is the felt on the beater is much thicker on the new pedal, and I thought it may be that, but switching these around and putting the old beater on the new pedal made no difference either. I have tried tightening the tension (in the bass drum), loosening it, altering the spring tension in the pedal, but none of these things seems to make much difference, it still bounces multiple times. If anyone could help either diagnose the problem, or make any suggestions, or anything, it would be a great help.
