Description
Overview
The SlapKlatz Pro Refillz provide a professional-grade solution for drummers seeking precise control over their instrument’s resonance. These high-performance gel dampeners are engineered to eliminate unwanted ring and harsh overtones from drums and cymbals without compromising the natural tone or the tactile playing feel of the head.
Developed with a focus on versatility and adhesion, SlapKlatz gels are designed to stay exactly where they are placed, even in high-vibration environments. Whether you are fine-tuning a studio recording or managing the acoustics of a live stage, these dampeners allow for rapid sonic adjustments in a matter of seconds.
Key Details
- High-Adhesion Gel: Specifically developed material ensures the dampeners remain secure on drum heads, including bottom heads and the underside of cymbals.
- Tone Preservation: Engineered to remove ringing and overtones while maintaining the core character and punch of the drum.
- Washable & Reusable: Gels can be cleaned with soap and water (air dry only) to restore their adhesive properties and extend their lifespan.
- Professional Pedigree: Trusted and used by world-renowned percussionists including Benny Greb, John JR Robinson, Tony Royster Jr., Anika Nilles, and Gergo Borlai.
- Refill Pack: This specific Refillz edition contains 12 black gel pads.
Use Cases
- Snare Drum Tuning: Quickly kill excessive ring on a bright snare to achieve a focused, “dry” studio sound.
- Tom Control: Manage the sustain of rack and floor toms to prevent overlapping frequencies in a dense mix.
- Cymbal Dampening: Apply to the underside of cymbals to reduce sustain and control wash.
- Live Performance: Rapidly adjust the dampening configuration between songs to match the acoustic requirements of different venues.
Installation
Installation is instantaneous and requires no tools. Simply peel a gel pad from the sheet and place it directly onto the drum head or cymbal surface. For fine-tuning, you can move the pad to different positions or add multiple pads to increase the amount of dampening. To remove, simply peel the gel off the surface; the material leaves no sticky residue behind.
