“The OffSet™ Bilateral Bass Drum Pedal is designed by a drummer for the drummer’s comfort, ergonomics and improved play. Standard double pedals have been around for decades without thought to the body symmetry in relation to the drum kit.”
“Ergonomics (or human factors) is the scientific discipline concerned with the understanding of the interactions among human and other elements of a system, and the profession that applies theory, principles, data and methods to design in order to optimize human well-being and overall system performance.”
The absolute quality, design, ergonomics and customization of the OffSet™ Bilateral Pedal eclipses any double pedal available today.
We could not explain it any better than these OffSet™ customers.

Dear Mr. Fisher,
A number of years ago a chiropractor informed me my hips were out of alignment, which throws my spine out of alignment and was causing me back pain. I couldn't figure out why my hips were out like that. It even created a length difference in my legs. Years later, after reading an article in Modern Drummer, it dawned on me the hip problem was probably caused by 25 plus years of playing double bass in the traditional set up; either with a second bass off to my left, or using a typical dble. pedal. I've owned a few of them, all good for what they are and do, but I have consistently felt discomfort in my back, right knee and even right ankle after playing long amounts of time. Upon reading about the Off-Set pedal on a discussion board I looked it up and purchased one. Man, what a great pedal. It's built like a tank, is very quiet, smooth and solid feeling, has all these great adjustment features, and in less than 15 minutes I had it set up and flying. Just a great device.
The feeling of natural balance while playing makes things like coordination and speed all the more effortless to achieve, and there is no displacement of twisting my hips to play the traditional pedal set up, and no discomfort in my back, knee or ankle. This device seems ideal to start younger players on before any body problems develop.
I hope you sell a million of them.
Thanks so much,
Ray Frigon

Dear Charles Fisher,
My name is Eric Andre’ Majied. I’ve been a music educator for 20 years and a student of drumming since age 2. I’ve most recently purchased your product; The “Off-Set” Drum Pedal.
Please know that I’ve been searching for this idea and or ideal product for at least 18 years.
While I’m currently the Director of Bands at Central High School here in Flint, Michigan, I also teach privately at Bill Schaffer’s Drum Shop.
I’m really excited about the response I’ve observed from adults and students who’ve tried the Off-Set Pedal. This pedal system is truly a revolution in drumming comfort. Any of my students or Drum Shop visitors who sit and try the pedal immediately acquire a perfect feeling of body balance, stroke control and stroke attack. The most impressive aspect of the Off-Set in my opinion is the strength of its construction.
The Off-Set Pedal is the OPTIMUM DESIGN for Bass Double Pedaling!!!
Sincerely your, Eric A, Majied
