Remo Schlagzeugfell Silent Stroke Bassdrum – 22" – SN-1022-00

I bought this 22" Remo Silentstroke Head for my acoustic Drum Kit ahead of shooting a trio of music videos, with a view to use it for practice afterwards. The reason being, (a) keeping playback as low as possible for the video shoots (as full volume playback can be brutal with drums at full volume!) and (b) for practice on an actual kit at home - Having played my Roland V-drums so much, I find the changeover to my acoustic kit a bit of a jump if it's been a while. Well - This Silentstroke head absolutely fulfilled both scenarios with ease. In terms of build - It's a mesh head in place of the usual mylar, very much like a v-drum, but mounted to a metal ring just like a normal drum head. It's as easy to fit as a normal head, with the added benefit that you can simply tune loose or tight for feel, without having to worry about the pitch or tone. Like all mesh heads it has more rebound, but the addition of a EQ patch tames that - it also adds a little clickier tone, which of course makes it a tiny, tiny bit louder. In terms of home practice, these mesh heads are quieter than my v-drum kit, using the EQ patch for a more realistic rebound does increase the perceived volume a tiny % - it's impact noises like those that tend to carry through a house. Anyway - it retains a little bit of tone and a tiny bit of resonance just on it's own, so I used it for all three shoots and it didn't take over at all - and at home, it's near silent in the next room. Highly recommend - I'm keeping mine on my bass drum at home now whenever I'm not taking it out rehearsing or gigging!

This arrived quickly and my daughter is very pleased with it.

Very happy with the quality of this product.

Fantastic alternative to practice pads or spending a fortune on an electronic kit.

Perfect for practicing @ home

Lasted 7 years before breaking a hole, great sound but still quiet enough for practice

打感はそれほど違和感なく、思い切り叩いても音は小さい。買って良かったです。

Es un producto perfecto para ensayar sin ruido

Perfect for hybrid drums

Perfetto! Che soddisfazione avere una mesh della cassa che risponde così bene. La differenza con una pelle tradizionale è davvero impercettibile. Con un buon trigger si può rendere ibrida una batteria acustica in pochi minuti e con una spesa contenuta. Io infatti consiglio vivamente mettere le mesh e i piatti low-volume piuttosto che acquistare una batteria elettronica. L'unico warning é che le pelli mesh delle casse si rovinano usando un battente del pedale in feltro. Avevo una Remo Silentstoke e nel corso degli anni si è bucato, modificando la risposta del battente. Vedere l'immagine caricata con questa recensione per un confronto. Consiglio vivamente questo prodotto e consiglio di sostituirlo ai primi segni di usura. TOP!
