Perfect for my 26" bass drum

I am using the EQ pad inside a 14" X 26" bass drum. I actually got the best result by placing it so it touches the batter, and the reso head. Anyway, it took the thunderous boom out, but left the tone, so it doesn't sound at all dry, it is so much better than the small wool blanket I was using, and the Velcro keeps it always in the right spot!

Great Adjustability

nice thud, does the job, great design, professional, stays put, does not touch the front reso head on A 16' depth. light and effective, 2 hinged design...one large side one smaller side. I have used many forms of muffling over the years. this is simple and worth it. If you want more muffling buy a second pad for the reso head or double the batter side by stacking. But at least you can adjust it all with this pad and method. If you don't want it to touch either head just lay it in there flat on a 16 deep drum. If you want your kick with more of a dead thud and a pillow that touches both batter and reso head at the same time.....buy the DW. it will do this, and do it professionally, nicely, and will also stay put. you can buy the DW based on the depth of your bass drum 16" or 18". The DW measures a few inches deeper than the depth size you order to insure it presses against both the batter and reso head. The DW is not adjustable and cost a little more. I wish i would have bought the evans adjustable eq pad a long time ago.

Best way to muffle your kick drum

Awesome thing worth buying if you need to control a kick's overtones just a little bit. The fact that sticks down in one place makes it consistent no matter how much transport your drums around, plus you can experiment with varying amounts of muffling based on much contact the pad makes with the head. You can also throw a small shirt or towel underneath the pad and it'll hold it down in place if you need some more muffling. If you have a kick port, the pad is small enough that you wont see it through the hole so it's also very aesthetically pleasing not seeing a bunch of towels in your drum.
