I just found this searching around on the internet:
The OFF-SET Bass Drum Pedal division of The Point Technologies continues to think outside the box with the introduction of the first ever free-standing, height-adjustable cocktail bass drum pedal, dubbed the OFF-SET Second Base Cocktail Pedal.
The unit employs a primary and secondary drive unit which allows the beater mechanism to be raised and supported on a "second base" to an elevation of 18 inches. With this unit only one can turn a standard set of drums into a Cocktail configuration in either the set-down or the stand-up mode. The unit is patent-pending, and can be seen at booth 747 at the summer NAMM show. Also on display will be the Radius Adjustable Drive Wheel (patent pending), the only drive wheel in the industry which can be adjusted on the pedal with only a standard drum key to a larger or smaller diameter to either increase or decrease the speed of the beater to the head of the bass drum. This allows for micro-adjustment of the beater head speed not availible on any other double bass drum pedal assembly. For more information visit www.pointtremelo.com.
