How to set up the Tama Dyna-Sync Direct Drive Drum Pedal - James Payne

- Hey guys, I did a video on how I set up the new Tama direct drive pedals Dyna-Sync. These pedals are a revolution not only because of the direct drive, but also because a few new settings that Tama introduced to set up the pedal in a more efficient way, and this has changed the game for me! As a 'chain pedal' player I have never really liked the direct drive pedals feeling, but this time I can chose the balance of the pedal with these new settings and that allows me to find exactly the feeling that I want on a pedal! I really suggest every drummer to go and check these pedals.

Finally someone points out the real virtues of the Dyna-Sync. The finest pedal in the world.
This video is a TOTAL game changer...thank you sir...opened my mind up...no one ever explained it and demo'd it like u did
Thank you! This is an excellent presentation of the detailed thinking behind the pedal design instead of simply “Tama now has a direct drive pedal.” The factory should be including this kind of explanation about HOW the balance & feel changes by moving the footboard setting. Much appreciated, James.
i dont know if tama even know all this info
Dude, excellent breakdown of this pedal.
Thank you for that video, this gives me even more desire to have a pair.
Thanks for the upload. Not long had my dyna sync will try out the different settings.
Thank you for this. Your video was informative and helped me decide to pull the trigger on one of these.
Perfect! I've had this for a few months, but have yet to dive into the settings. This makes total sense. Thanks!!!
Great setup tips, thank you!
Just bought these bad boys and can't wait to get them in the mail! Super excited!
Very good advice
Finally tama decided to take the plunge into the direct drive concept id love to try a double pedal with pedal trigger system
nice explanation thanks
Thank you for this very informative video. I have been on the fence about replacing my SC 910’s with a set of DS double pedal. Ordered them tonight. I’m sure I will like them!
How do you find them ? They're on sale for in the UK right now and I'm considering paying the extra £50 from the speed cobras to these
@@curley31682 years on so this might be a pointless reply..moved from the speed cobra to these and I find a really 50/50 at the moment (day 4!). Sometimes I can get to 260 BPM with oddly little effort. Other sessions I struggle entirely and fart through it. I suppose new pedal and all that but it’s definitely a better direct drive move if used to chain than most of the others. So far impressed but confused at my knees sudden demolishing speed or utter uselessness.
In addition to what he showed, It also has independent beater angle adjustment from the hex bolt on the top right side (just above the spring) .. being able to change the balance of the pedal however by sliding the cam is really what makes all the difference ..
Thanks for vid!!!!!. I'm thinking about buying one of these and ditching my DW 9000
Let me know how that goes please if you follow through !
Dw are crap.
Tama is the way to go
Hi James, I need to ask you a question regarding the tama dyna sync, since I recently bought them, and I saw a video of you testing them where you had changed the beater for the ones that bring the iron cobra. I have some old iron cobra too, and I tried their beaters on the dyna sync and heard a better sound, I'm thinking of buying some speed cobra beaters or some iron cobra from the new model, but I can't decide which ones will sound with the best click, I could you advise?
Great pedals. Have had mine for 3 months
Still liking them?
Had mine since launch.
Best pedals ever
How do you feel the differences between dyna-sync and Iron cobra? How much better or worse is Dyna-Sync than Iron cobra? How much faster can you play on the Dyna-Sync pedal compared to the Iron cobra? I am currently using an Iron cobra twin pedal and am planning to include a Dyna-Sync pedal as well, so I ask how many differences do you feel between the two pedals? Have you experienced swinging left and right with the Dyna-Sync pedal due to the swivel technique?
Nice, are you switching to this pedal completely or?
Now its time to think about a pair of this pedals, never try Tama before but now.....
Hey man. Are you still using these pedals? I see the old tama pedals in most of your videos since this one. Did you stop liking them?
Please make a video about 6 other settings from tama dyna sync .... So we can see how every setting from every part of the pedal effects the feeling of the pedal ....
First of you can not describe the feel of a pedal in a YT video. Secondly, It has 6 marks for each 3 settings, but you are not limited to just 6 - they are only marks - it is actually continuous setting the combination of 3 independent adjustments (here he shows only two, but you also have the angle of the beater adjustment).. Means you have complete freedom to adjust any aspect of the pedal reaction and feel, but this will also depend on what size is your bass drum, how it is tuned, do you have a port on the reso or not.... In my case this is the only pedal I was able to adjust to my preference for my 24x14 with no reso port. You can not play burying the beater with such setup and it is much more technique demanding but this pedal I could easily adjust and it has been great! This is the main difference between other hi-end pedals - you can change the balance on these...this really is a game changer IMO
“This part”
WHAT PART!? I can’t see!
Do you feel like the left beater is heavier ?Since the left beater's holder has angle adjustment and therefore is bigger than the right one which is not adjustable at the drive shaft but at the top of the spring assembly. Maybe it's an obvious answer but I didnt know
@Илюха Каперсак ok bro.
I currently own a Ludwig speed king and am currently looking for an upgrade to this, any other key things I should consider before I pull the trigger on it?
Did you get them? How are you finding them?
I just got this and I can say it's better than the speed cobra. I'm waiting for the axis longboard to arrive to make a final decision but this pedal is definitely on another level.
so out of this and the axis, which is better?
@@brent3086 I canceled my Axis pedal order. I'm very happy with the Dyna -Sync. It's the best Tama pedal right now and better than any DW pedal in my opinion. You get way more for your money compared to Axis as well and this comes with a hard shell ( hard plastic) case
@@kilki1234 do you find it easier to play in comparison with the axis? i'm not sure whether to buy the dynas or the axis longboards.
@@brent3086 the Dyna Sync is very smooth. Actually it's a little too smooth. I have my mine set so it feels in between direct drive and a chain drive and I find that to be the sweet spot for me. I've tried the Axis and in my opinion, the only thing it has going for is the long board. You can definitely fly with the Dyna-sync. Unless you have 13 inch foot, you probably don't need the Axis. Also, you can adjust the pedal heigh independently unlike the Axis. If you get the Axis beater ( sonic beater?), You'll have pretty all the adjustments you'll ever need
@@brent3086 the pedal height adjustment , independent of the beater angle,is a really big deal. I really can't stress how that makes a HUGE difference on the speed and attack. Get the Dyna Sync. If you order from guitar center, you have 30 days to return. You won't be disappointed
Hello, I have the iron cobra power glide 900 doubles. I am going to buy these I think. Are the foot boards longer?
They are, they are more like the Speed Cobra ones
@@JamesPayneDrums what band do you play with? Are they capable of reaching warp speed BPM'S. Are they about as good as TRICK big foot V1. DO they play faster than the speed of sound.🐱🥁
How does the footboard length compare to the iron and speed cobras? I have speed cobras and have gotten used to the longer board.
The board is more similar to the Speed Cobra!
@@JamesPayneDrums siiiick! I really wanna try these.
Like yourself, I also play the Iron Cobra's. I love the feeling while grooving. But I can miss the direct feel while playing really fast. I'm not a fan of the Speed Cobra (I have read people think DS and SC are similar), but would you think I would find these pedals satisfying? Thanks.
Jimmie Olausson I play both the IC and the Speed Cobra. They’re night and day from one another. I just recently went to my local shop and played the Dyna-sinc. All I can say is... OMG!!! The feeling is not even close to the others. To make sure I tried all 3 side by side. It went from faste, faster, to super fast! And there was no loss in feeling or power at all. These pedals are absolutely amazing! So much so that I’m ready to sell both my Iron and Speed Cobras!!!
The speed cobra is way better than the iron cobra. With this, you can make it feel like the speed cobra if you want
@@kilki1234 no power with the speed, stop sayin bullshit
@@valou78460 all these pedals are nothing but tools. What it boils down to is how you use the tool. If blaming pedals makes you feel better about your shortcomings as a drummer, then go ahead. Whatever makes you feel good about your pathetic life
@@kilki1234 kilki1234 "The speed cobra is way better than the iron cobra." and you say they are nothing but tools after hahaha. You are the one making subjective criticism. Typical Internet moron saying nonsense then saying something to my face without knowing me while i said nothing to you. I bet you don't fuck often with all that
frustration you fat fuck virgin
Not as beautiful as the Cobras (my opinion, of course), but definitely a game changer for Tama's pedals. I want these sooo bad 🤣
I love Cobras! But with these they added some very nice features!!
@@JamesPayneDrums ...james! Can I ask.you a little question?..do you feel these pedals are way better than "axis long boards"?..thanks
And the tension spring?
In this video I explain about the spring settings: th-cam.com/video/N83almzBSHY/w-d-xo.html
Anyway, my spring tension is around a bit more than the half
I see you swap out the original beater
The original beater is garbage. I want to try this with the axis Sonic beater
The overall price is the biggest hurdle
This or the Demo Drive?
Definitely this one. Sold my Demon drives for this
Tama did a direct drive pedal in the 80s.
But this one is \m/etal
This one is waaaay better
Tama pedals rock.
Sold my demon drives and ill never go back to Pearl.
Tama pedals are just better
Hi look at me ,and not the Pedal I'm showing u because u cant see the Pedal ,and only me .
I only play with the cobra coil. I am also a liar
What?
@@dcmastermindfirst9418 that meant I can only play tama pedals with a cobra coil. But saying I was a liar means I don't actually think that.
Tama still using that cheap shit hoop clamp, and garbage driveshaft.
the Tama hoopclamp is fantastic.
Pearl makes good looking hardware but it's cheap as fuck
