Thank you so much for this idea, spent about 7 bucks for felt, glue and a metal ring i used as a guide instead of you used but its amazing! For someone who still uses their rock band 1 drum kit in an apartment, it works wonders.
Also i didnt use spray glue but a general fabric glue and it worked as well.
those are not rimshots. thats just hitting the rim. rimshot is when you hit the drum head and the rim at the same time on a real drum, and it makes a different, much louder noise.
check your Pots first. You might not need a circel cutter. my smal pot caps fit perfect for the inner circel while the bigger ones fit nice with the big circel covvering up the rims. I think potsizes are pritty universal.. you just press cap down on the foam and get a nice line to cut alon with your cutter.
I only used one layer, sadly it dos not feel more silent, it´s just a deeper tonalety.
Foamies heissen auf Deutsch Moosgummie, gibts in jedem Bastelladen. A3 = 2mm 90cent, 3mm 1,30€
I know this is rediculous, but if your gonna go through the trouble of buying and modifying stuff for a video game, why dont you just play REAL drums, besides there alot more fun!
So what does one do if you have volume issues at home and want to cut down on the sound completely, without losing the true and original action and feel of drumming?
nice one, you are good, at least you try to do something by your self, and when the world end you will be able to craft things, not BUY like all these retards who just manage to insult you. and by the way, we love your idea in central america, is cheap and easy.
You know what I keep asking? Why people want to silence their drum pads, instead of making them more sevitive or having more rebound. I think its just a waste of time and money to just silence your drums.
i got the same thing and IT IS EPIC! only bad thing for ME is that the blue pad one keeps coming off but i put tape on it ^_^ so it should be all good >.>
Here is a great way to not worry about the noise from the drums. Play it on a good home stereo and crank it with about 600w and trust me you dont hear them and I think it is the proper way to play er. Rock on fellow virtual rockers. lol
DONT READ THIS. YOU WILL GET KISSED ON THE NEAREST POSSIBLE FRIDAY BY THE LOVE OF YOUR LIFE. TOMORROW WILL BE THE BEST DAY OF YOUR LIFE.

SEND THIS OVER TO 5 VIDEOS IN 143 MINUTES WHEN UR DONE PRESS F6 AND UR CRUSHES NAME WILL APPEAR ON THE SCREEN IN BIG LETTERS. THIS IS SO SCARY Cuz IT ACTUALLY WORKS THIS reaLLY WORKS!!!!!
no but thatsb ecause i hate crappy videos n i dont no how 2 make good ones so i jus w8 oneday when i get the time and money 2 figure out how 2 make good videos
tell me about it my friends little sister had a bright idea to steal my drum sticks and start hitting my pads with ALL HER FUCKING FORCE! omfg i had to pack my drums in its box and put it in his closet so she would mess with them!
I just boght some of those real cheap mouse mats that are made of foam & cut them into circles & stuck them on, thats working out pretty well for me at the moment, the pads are still very sensitive with them on
do you live in nj cuz my grandma gets all her craft stuff from a joanns craft store too...but n e ways cant you just round off a mouse pad or better yet just buy the rock band 2 drum set cuz they're a shit load better than the rock band one and alot more quieter too
Hey guys... if you're like me and you wanted to copy this video but couldn't find any suitable foamy stuff, do what i did. I wrapped the tips of the actual sticks in that really thin foam shit that you get in packaging. You only need a little bit and it works just as well! Good luck, its well worth doing...
I can't understand why people who arent very "good" feel the need to mod their drums. It's not like if your playing on expert, where you are hitting a bunch of notes. If you are playing on easy, modding is the last thing you should be worrying about.
om this is just scilening the drums cuz when you hit there kinda loud my mom and dad get pissed at me when i play at night they tell me the next morning will you stop that all i can hear is clunk clunk clunk at night so i did this
i dont think using any kind of foam rubber works for the drums man. the best thing to do is to not hit the drums like if you were really playing in a concert or a band. doesn't matter if the game is called ROCK BAND. hitting the drums softly works try it
the whole point of the game is to feel like you are in a band. okay, you may look stupid pulling stage moves and powerslides with a plastic guitar, or going nuts with the drum in a big rock finish, but when you have 3 friends round, doing you're favourite show stopper, you dont care
why are u guys just gonna waste your time trying to reduce the sound of the noise from the pads. One day u wont even play this game that much anymore like most people do with guitar hero
Update.... when applying color foam be sure to apply extra bond at the center of the foam where most of the hits register. I had to reconnect but seems to be working fine now.
the foam quiets the stick hitting the foam, the felt quiets the hit onto the drum, still giving it enough force to register. basically the felt makes it so u don't have to hit it as hard.
