Frequently Asked Questions
Practice Pads & Mutes FAQs
Why use a practice pad?
Practice pads let you work on technique quietly anywhere - at home, traveling, backstage warming up. They're essential tools for every drummer.
What practice pad size should I get?
An 8-inch practice pad is a great starting size for most drummers. Larger pads (10-12 inch) work for more advanced technique work; smaller pads are portable.
What are drum mutes?
Drum mutes attach to drum heads to dramatically reduce kit volume. They allow practice on your actual kit without disturbing others.
Are mesh practice pads different from rubber?
Yes - mesh pads more closely simulate the rebound of a drum head; rubber pads offer different (typically harder) rebound. Both have their uses.
Which brands make quality practice pads and mutes?
Vic Firth, Pro-Mark, RTOM, Drumeo, and many other brands make quality practice pads and drum mute kits. DCP stocks a full range.
