Historical Context and Positioning Within the Range
With the CAP200, Schlagwerk stays true to the "remote cable" approach, a performance-oriented choice that prioritizes placement flexibility and adaptation to different cajons. This pedal follows a pragmatic design logic: optimizing ergonomics and the striking area to achieve a clean and powerful bass, regardless of the instrument used. It is once again delivered with a case, designed for transport and protection.
Who This Drum/Instrument Is For
The Schlagwerk CAP200 is aimed at intermediate to advanced cajon players seeking a genuine foot-operated "bass drum" alternative without sacrificing playing feel. It is also well suited for stage musicians (acoustic, pop, folk, world music, light funk) who want to secure their setup and maintain stable footwork in live, rehearsal, or studio contexts.
Thanks to its smooth response and wide dynamic range, it adapts equally well to soft grooves and more accented patterns when you need to "carry" the low end in an acoustic set.

Questions frequently asked
Is the Schlagwerk CAP200 compatible with a standard cajon?
The design places the beater at the striking point intended for a normal cajon, to achieve a defined bass and clear attack. The system relies on a remote cable to adapt the pedal placement around the instrument.
What type of transmission does this cajon pedal use?
A steel Bowden cable with Teflon coating ensures transmission between the pedal and the striking mechanism. Its flat floor routing minimizes the risk of tripping in a compact setup.
Does the CAP200 pedal offer a direct response underfoot?
The patented dual-cam construction is designed to transmit energy immediately and provide a direct playing feel.
Is it suitable for playing cajon on stage?
Its flat cable facilitates floor space management during performances. The longboard plate allows control of the pressure, from muffled lows to more pronounced strikes. A cover is included for transport and protection.
What dynamic control does the longboard plate provide?
Thanks to its long pedal plate, it is possible to control a wide dynamic range by foot. The single playing surface registers consistent strikes, suitable for acoustic grooves as well as heavier patterns.
