Description
Overview
The SlapKlatz Mini provides drummers with a professional, versatile solution for controlling unwanted ring and overtones. These high-performance gel dampeners allow for precise tonal shaping across drums and cymbals without sacrificing the natural playing feel or the core tone of the instrument. Engineered for maximum adhesion, these pads stay securely in place even in high-vibration environments.
Key Details
- High-Adhesion Gel: Developed specifically for drums to ensure pads remain secure on top heads, bottom heads, and the underside of cymbals.
- Optimized Dimensions: The size and thickness of the gel have been rigorously tested to provide the ideal balance of damping power and sonic transparency.
- Reusable Design: The gel pads are washable with soap and water (air dry only), allowing you to maintain stickiness and extend the life of the product.
- Professional Endorsement: Trusted by world-class percussionists including Benny Greb, John JR Robinson, Tony Royster Jr., Anika Nilles, and Gergo Borlai.
- Portable Storage: Includes a dedicated case to keep your gel pads clean and organized during transport.
Use Cases
- Snare Drum Control: Eliminate harsh overtones and “ring” to achieve a tighter, more focused studio sound.
- Tom Tuning: Quickly dampen tom-toms to reduce sustain and prevent bleeding into other microphones during recording.
- Cymbal Management: Apply to the underside of cymbals to control sustain and wash without affecting the top-side playing surface.
- Resonant Head Damping: Securely attach to bottom heads to modify the decay and resonance of the drum shell.
Installation
Installation is straightforward and non-permanent. Simply peel a gel pad from the case and press it firmly onto the desired area of the drum head or the underside of a cymbal. To remove, gently peel the pad away from the surface. If the pads collect dust or lose adhesion, wash them with mild soap and water, then allow them to air dry completely before reusing.
Compatibility
The SlapKlatz Mini is compatible with all types of drums (acoustic and electronic shells) and all cymbal types, regardless of brand or material. They are designed to adhere to various head materials and metal alloys.
