absolutely silent
wow. talk about silent. it is completely silent. i can't hear it. i have vdrums & i will be going into my settings to see if i can adjust it. it's perfect for home, tho. the only thing they hear now, is the tap tap on the toms. family didn't hear much of the bass anyway. i have a double bass, I might buy another, not sure yet. if i can beef up the bass, i probably will.

Nice solution
I play in church and this is a great alternative to a standard beater. I don't have to worry about overpowering piano/guitar/vocals at all, but it still provides an audible kick. It reduces the sound by probably 60% or so, allowing me to play normally without being so self conscious about my volume. It might be the most important modification I've made to my kit for this purpose. Wonderful accessory.

Shockingly effective
It's a little light compared to a regular beater, but it works just fine and it mutes enough that I can play in the garage without people in the house (or my neighbors) hearing the bass drum. Highly recommend as a way to quickly mute that can easily be swapped out for gigging.

Good idea!
Bought this beater for my Cajon kick pedal. Gives me a warmer thump sound than a felt beater or even my palm. For increased volume, my Cajon has a piezo pickup with volume and tone control.

Doesn't work with the Alesis Nitro Mesh e-kit
As the title states, this doesnt work with an Alesis Nitro Mesh kit. If you turn the sensitivity all the way up on your bass drum and kick hard, you can get it to read, but that defeats the purpose of having this, because it makes a lot of noise just to get the kit to read the beat. Pretty disappointed But I decided to give it 3 stars, because this product would work very well on an acoustic kit or an electronic kit with a higher sensitivity reading. But if you have the nitro mesh kit like me, don't bother.

Great sound, Natural feel
Was honestly using towels wrapped around my existing beater before buying this. Wanted a beater for lower volume, softer bass. Not a "click" or "boom" but more of a "thump" which is what I was looking for. Sounds great with brushes or hot rods. Very natural feel. I'm a fan! Wish these were a few dollars cheaper though.

Solution for quieter electric drum kick pedal
This is what you are looking for. I have tried a tennis ball as well as a kickless pedal. The tennis ball was still too loud and the kickless pedal didn’t feel right and was triggering when I didn’t want it to. This is the perfect medium. It’s totally quiet and it triggers perfectly on a Yamaha dtx6kx. I think I played around with a couple of velocity curve options to make sure it was loud enough but not difficult to do at all. I can still kick like I want to without making a noise and it triggers when I want it to. Perfect.

TAMA Soft Sound Beater (BSQ5S)
It is really light and makes one adjust to almost stomping the pedal harder to accommodate to actually hearing the kick drum. For practice in apartment or basement it maybe the way to go as long as you don't adjust your playing style with the kick drum. It does definitely reduce the volume of the kick drum when playing normally and not stomping to to accommodate how much it reduces the volume of the kick

Helps to reduce noise and provides a bit more work on your ankle and leg

家族からうるさいと言われて買いました。めっちゃ静かになったって家族も喜んでますし、ちゃんとバスドラの音もするので、買って良かったです。

自宅マンションで使う電子ドラム用に買いました。電子ドラム用の敷マット、その名も「ノイズイーター」というペダルの下に置く用の防振板?装置?を両足のペダルの下に、そして、もともと打面が静音用に出来ているバスドラムのビーターに、打つほうも静音仕様にしようと意図して買いました。いいですね。振動がどのように発生しているかはにわかにわからないけど、耳で聞くヒット音は本当に静か!

Comparado con un mazo de felpa rígida, el sonido impacto de la maza con el sensor de la torre del bombo se atenua muchisimo. Ya no molesto a la gente de mi casa ni a los vecimos. Por contra, al ser la espuma tan blanda, aunque suba la sensibilidad y el trigger al maximo, el sensor no es capaz de registrar el 100% de los golpes y aunque de al pedal con mucha fuerza el sensor nunca detecta un nivel superior al 60%. Me toca subir el bombo en la mezcla. Es un inconveniente asumible con respecto a la mejora de ruido.

Is not suitable for e-drums. I have a mesh head kick drum and the beater is so soft, that the mesh head couldn't pick all the beats properly, even after increasing the sensitivity of the drum.
