Hi Guys,

What do you use to sound proof an electronic kit? I am specifically talking about the vibrations on the floor created primarily by the bass drum pedal.

I have heard about "tennis ball risers" though i'm not much of a DIY guru, ideally I am looking for the cheapest/easiest option available.

Thanks

Hi Alex, I think you would be best making some kind of riser. Having a look around I can see that rubber is favourable, the thicker the better.

Have a look over at www.soundonsound.com and search their articles and their forums...

Cheers Neil, some very good forums on there, I especially like all the info for Mac people - quite a rarity even now. Think i'll have a go at building myself a riser, found these very good instructions here on how to build one http://www.vdrums.com/forum/showthread.php?t=45889
