Evans EQ bass drum mute
Dave1138 17.06.2014
So long, and fare thee well pillows and old bedsheets! As soon as I set this up, and tuned the bass drum, I knew I had finally found my perfect tone.
Who would have thought something so simple, would make such a huge difference to the overall tone, and dynamic of the bass drum sound.
It adds just the right amount of dampening, and takes out those horrible high ends from a tighter tuned bass drum, and accentuates the attack, and dynamic of the lower tunings.
A must have for every drummer. An amazing bit of gear, for a fantastic price.
You won't be disappointed!

BF
Effective Solution To Replace Blankets and Pillows
Brian Fantana 08.03.2019
For years I have had pillows and blankets stuffed into my bass drum as a means of muffling and dampening the resonance of the drum as I have always preferred the sound of a quick, short attack on the bass drum. Although I liked the dampening these provided, they did prove to be a bit unsightly when using clear skins.

I opted to try this product as a more compact solution and was pleasantly surprised by its quality. The pad has two sides that are designed to rest against the batter head just under where the beater sits. Each offers different amounts of sound dampening so can be easily configured to get the exact sound you are looking for. I tested both, before settling on the smaller, less dampening side. The material it is made of feels of good quality. Attached to the pad are velcro patches that can be stuck to the inside of the drum shell for a quick and stable installation.

Overall I found it be a quick and effective to use product with clear and immediate results. Highly recommended!

Nice and easy
Drumfusion 31.10.2022
Easy mounting, i do use a little gaffatape to connect to batterhead, thats why its gets 4 out of 5 stars. But i do the job vere well, and you dont need pillow or other not nice device .-)

Lighter than the original Evans pillow, less intrusive
Gajdzin 04.01.2019
This was always a great product, much loved by pro drummers, but my original one from many years ago is much thicker - this one has the "flap" much thinner and lighter, which is less intrusive on the drumhead movement - a good thing. Stop treating your kick drum like a washing machine, get all those clothes out of it and put this pad instead. You'll be amazed.
