Hi, quick question from a novice drummer. I bought my first ever kit, an Alesis Nitro Mesh and I must say I’m very happy with it. I read a few things saying that using a felt pedal on the kick (it’s a rubber pad) was bad for it and would eventually cause excessive wear / damage. The pedal that came with the kit has both a felt side and a plastic side. I prefer the feel when using the felt side but don’t want to use it if it’s gonna wear out the pad! Therefore looking advice please!

Many thanks for your help, I look forward to learning a lot on this forum 🧐
