Frequently Asked Questions
What are Drumshhh™ pads?
Drumshhh™ pads are pre-cut, self-adhesive, foam-backed felt pads that attach to the face of Rock Band™ drum heads to reduce the drumstick noise and also to protect the drum head.
Do they work?
Absolutely! We tested them with an actual sound level meter (Radio Shack Cat. #33-2050 for those interested). From a distance of six inches, a medium-strength drum hit on an unmodified drum registered 70-72 decibels. A drum head with a Drumshhh™ pad attached registered only 64-66 decibels. A difference of 6-8 decibels may not sound like much, but it is actually a noise reduction of 50% (decibels are logarithmic blah blah blah...trust us, it's about half as loud with Drumshhh™).
Do they reduce drum head sensitivity?
No! We have played through several jam sessions and have never noticed even a slight loss of sensitivity. Don't believe us? Check out our Testimonials page to see what our customers say!
Do I have to assemble the pads?
Nope. In our very early "experiment" phase, we toyed around with craft store cutters and hand-assembly of the pads - believe us, it's a pain! We still hand-assemble some of our "pattern" discs, but we do it so you don't have to. If you want to noodle around with trying to align a piece of felt onto a piece of foam yourself, please let us know. Maybe we will offer a new "pad kit" product, like some of our competitors.
Can they be removed?
Yes, they can. The adhesive is firm, but not permanent. We have applied and removed several sets of pads without any damage to the drum heads. Removal instructions are included in the package. (Note: we do not advertise our pads as being "reusable"; in our experience, once the pads are removed, they do not stick as well when re-applied.)
What colors do they come in?
Please check the home page or the store (opens new window) to see the styles we offer.
How much do they cost?
What are your shipping rates?
Please check the store (opens new window) for details on prices and shipping.
Will you ship to [country]?
We ship worldwide, but our online store is not (yet) able to handle addresses outside of the US and Canada. If you live outside the US and Canada, please send us an e-mail and we'll give you details on shipping rates.
How do I clean my Drumshhh™ pads?
We recommend using a lint roller (or a piece of packing tape) to pick up dust, dirt, and drummer dandruff. We do not recommend using any type of liquid cleaners while the pads are installed.
Will Drumshhh™ pads void my Rock Band drum kit warranty?
Although Drumshhh™ pads are removable, we cannot make any statements or guarantees about EA's warranty terms with regard to 3rd-party products like ours. For that reason, the lawyers require us to say this: Drumshhh Accessories is not responsible for any changes to, or voiding of, the warranty of your Rock Band drum kit or other related peripherals arising due to the installation, use, or removal of Drumshhh™ pads. You should contact EA before installing Drumshhh™ pads (or any 3rd-party product), if you have concerns about warranty status.
