Remo 08" Practice Pad Silent Stroke 5-stars Reviews

Great Practice Pad

Nice practice pad with great feel, it's cool to be able to play with the tension. Although it's definitely quieter than other pads; I wouldn't say it's exactly silent.

Another interesting feature(not sure if intended by the producer) is being able to take out the sponge under the head. Give it a try, it won't disappoint! Good buy!

My experience with this

I own a regular practice pad that is very similar to this silent pad, just with a different head and it is super noizy comparing with the Remos Silent Pad. Apart from large noise reduction, it has a great rebound feel as wel. Another very important note is that, with the regular practice pad I could only use it when I was alone at home, or my girlfriend would get annoied by it. She tolerate this one a lot more.

Imitates a real drum and differs from some practice pads in that the edges are quite high. This means you can practice rim shots as well (although then it's not that silent anymore)

An amazing pad!

Bought this for practicing my rudiments.

The Silent Stroke feature is what caught my eye, and it's great!

It is definitely quieter than the normal pad, but if you want to remove most noise, I recommend mounting it on a cymbal stand or a snare stand because the vibrations can still be heard if you put it on a desk. But it's definitely not loud!

The head is mesh, the tightness of the head out of the box is good, not too unrealistically tight but not loose either.

Overall a good purchase! I recommend this for practicing.

Great pad for quiet practice.

I have been using a rubber practice pad for 10+ years now but this was an excellent upgrade.

It's a much better feel compared to my old pad and is much closer to a real drum.

I would definitely recommend for someone who wants to practice rudiments whilst not disturbing people nearby as it's comparable in volume to playing the notes on your leg.
