Cympads... Ever heard of 'em?

[steveplaysyamaha]

Just wondering if anyone else has given these things a go?

I acquired 2 of them thru a friend at my local music store, and I am going back for more! So far, so good!

Really changed the whole playing experience..

Have a look and try them out for yourself.

I can't post a commercial link, but google should be your friend here.

I just like how they've managed to bring the volume down a hair and maintained the same tones and qualities of the cymbals! Its essentially a polyurethane foam replacement to the cymbal felts we use. Controls volume (brings it down a touch) and for me enhanced the sound..

Edit: They also outlast the felt pads, and will apparently increase cymbal longevity.

Here's a sample, big range of sizes..
