Finally a video that explains the mysterious foot technique that many have asked about. If you have a question, leave a comment.
There also is a new video online about blast beats (up to 280bpm!): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2RlqvRcbl_4

In this video I do not use triggers, its all just the sound from the camera microphone.
I use a Pearl Demon Drive double pedal.
My pedal settings:
- spring tension is on maximum
- footboard is on the longboard position
- direct drive adjustment is on position "H" (heavy feel)
- beater holder is on position "B" (power)
- footboard angle adjustment is a little bit lower than the initial setting (about 1mm on the gauge)
- beater angle is on initial setting
- distance between beater holder and center of the beater head is about 13.5cm
- I use Sonor beaters and with all this settings the distance between beater and drumhead is about 13cm
If the Demon Drive is not your first pedal I would highly recommand to put the settings as close as possible to how your old pedal was set up. If the Demon Drive IS your first pedal I would recommand to start with lower spring tension and greater distance between beater and head.
I hope I didnt miss something!
