Drum Practice Pad, Drum Pad 12 Inch Silent Practice Pad with 4 Different Playing Surfaces

My son wants to be a drummer, which sounded intense (for his parents) to listen to as he learns. This practice board gives him the space and practice like the real thing. I think the pads sound great with the different pitches and the base of the board is comfortable on a lap or table. Great instrument!

Big enough to hit intentionally, small enough to fit in book bag to practice. Will be a great gift for my brother. Build quality is high, noise level is low enough to practice at night and is comfortable and weighs very little.

My playing has improved tremendously, just in 2 months. This pad makes practice more fun and is light-years ahead of my old real-feel pad.Honestly one of the best purchases I’ve ever made.

Great acoustics and if you use a snare drum stand it feels like you’re playing a mini drum set. You can move about the pad for different effects, and it even has a unique rim/wood block like sound atThe top in the blue area. It’s well-designed for the price it’s a bit expensive for pads, but competitors feel cheaper in comparison.

The pad seems well-built but the glue work could be a bit better. The grey surface sounds good and it has a realistic stick bounce. Orange, Black, and Blue surfaces add a lot of versatility to tone and bounce.If you are looking for a multi-surface pad for a decent price price and quality this might be the one.I sincerely hope that you will find this review helpful.

If you're familiar with the online drum school Drumeo, you've seen a practice pad that looks a lot like this one. The main difference, as far as I can see, is that one costs nearly twice what this one does. Let's run down some pros and cons:Pad surfaces: This features five pads made of varying densities of rubber. In theory, it's supposed to simulate the feel of different drumming surfaces, and at lower velocities, you can feel the difference. However, if you're playing either faster or harder, the distinctions are harder to suss out.Pad size: Here's why I took a star off (and would do the same if the other pad was sitting in front of me): Pads of this type advertise themselves as giving you similar ergonomics to a full-size kit. I don't know what they're smoking, but it's not even close; you'd need more distance between pad surfaces to really feel like you're moving around a four or five-piece kit. The small zones do have one thing going for them: they're good for teaching stick control.Construction: If you flip this over, there's a thinner sheet of neoprene on it. I think it's supposed to stop the pad from sliding if you use it on a tabletop; at any rate, it's too thin to be any use as another drumming surface. It's a shame, in a way, because if it was you'd be able to practice rudiments on a full-sized uniform surface. Taking a star off here, too.Is it worth it? If you have no other drums, and can't find any other practice pads, maybe? If you have a snare, you're better off getting a damping pad, and if you only have a pad, I'm not sure this is the one you want. It's too fussy, and doesn't really do what it says it will well enough, to be all that useful.

Awesome. Came fast and packed safely. Real feel too and sectioned off to practice opposing rhythms. Very practical, easy size for portability. Quiet

Works well and produces good sound
