Noise Blocker Pad for Drums - Sylomer
The NoiseBlocker Pad is the ideal solution for soundproofing drum and e-drum pedestals. Even electronic drums generate considerable vibrations and noise despite their design. This is most noticeable through the kick drum and hi-hat, which can spread throughout the building as low-frequency structure-borne sound.

Building instructions for a soundproof platform
To decouple your drum kit, get a sturdy multiplex or screen-printed board from a DIY store and attach the required number of Noise Blocker Pads underneath, adjusted to the total weight of the board, carpet, drum kit, hardware and player. Place your drum kit on a carpet that lies on the prepared board. Make sure to distribute the pads evenly to ensure optimal sound isolation. Nevertheless, you should make sure to support particularly stressed areas, such as the area under the drum stool or the kick pedal, with additional pads in order to achieve stable and effective damping.
