Evans Mini EMAD Tom and Snare Drum Damper Pads (Pack of 6)
The trim and unobtrusive Min-EMAD removes unwanted frequencies, retaining the desired attack, resonance, and feel.
A deceptively simple damping device based on solid acoustical principles, the Min-EMAD consists of a fabric “bridge” that links the resonant head with the relatively inert, metal counterhoop. When attached by Velcro dots to both head and rim, the Min-EMAD removes overtones by controlling the vibration of the head. With absolute minimal intrusion on the batter (or the resonant) surface, the result is a focused, unchoked tone. For minimal overtone reduction, the Min-EMAD can be attached to the head close to the rim; for increased damping, it may be positioned further from the rim. Maximum damping is achieved when the Min-EMAD is extended to its full length or used on both the batter and resonant heads.
