NEAR SILENT: this is Meinl's quietest practice pad; a special "marshmallow" foam surface absorbs stick sound and reduces spring-back
WHY IT MATTERS: you can chop out at any hour, in any space, without disturbing people around you; build up your hands faster by eliminating constraints on when or where you practice
ONE BIG THING: the marshmallow foam strengthens your muscles more than traditional gum rubber pads with its reduced rebound; the feel is similar to playing on a cloth car seat or loose tension floor tom
OF NOTE: you can mount this pad onto any cymbal stand; on the bottom is a universal 8 mm threaded connector to spin the pad in place on your stand—it's recessed to not scratch your desk or table
ZOOM IN: the sturdy and dense modern composite base is lined on bottom so the pad won't shift if practicing on a table; the lining is non-slip, plus, it creates a barrier to avoid scratches and cuts down noise/vibration
BY THE NUMBERS: 12" diameter (fits in a snare basket stand); 20 mm thick marshmallow foam pad, 19 mm thick base, 5 mm thick soft foam lining
THE BOTTOM LINE: you'll see faster growth in your sticking and muscles during practice and performance
THE BIG PICTURE: Meinl is a family-owned musical instrument manufacturer and brand established 1951 in Germany; our expert German designers have deep relationships with our builders to ensure you're delivered the absolute finest quality
Practice silently and build muscle at any hour. The Meinl Marshmallow Pad has a specially formulated, super thick foam surface that provides rebound with ultra-low volume. This means you can drop the decibels while practicing without losing a bouncy feel. Work on rudiments, dial-in technique or just chop out while not disturbing anyone around you. The solid modern composite base is padded on the underside so you can play the pad on any surface. The Meinl Marshmallow Pad is also equipped with an 8 mm threaded insert to mount on a cymbal stand. Available in 12" and 6" sizes.
