Customer reviews for 'Rock Band Drum Silencers'

Silencers work well but not that silent
Make a note that these silencers supposedly work better on the Rock Band 2 drum set than they do on the Rock Band drum set. Apparently, the RB drum set won't pick up every note with these silencers on. The improved RB2 drum set does however.
As a product, I've satisfied with the silencers because a) they protect the actual drum pads from my friends' ruthless drumming and b) they make the drum pads a bit quieter. They're also easily removable in case you ever change your mind or buy different silencers. [...], I feel they were well worth the purchase and they work extremely well on my RB2 drum set.

An excellent solution, but Needs 100% steady hand placement
The Drum silencers are a soft plastic with a rubbery feel, with a near permanent adhesive on the back. The result of placing them on the drums has NOT been lower accuracy with Rock Band 2 drums, but can cause Rock Band 1 drums to miss notes. In my experience, these drums cause a great deal less noise than the original, plastic impact zone.
The front of these pads has a wavy design and the Rock Band logo which, after constant use, will slowly wear away. The rubber very slowly shreds, but is gentle on your sticks. I estimate these pads could last up to a year if you play every day for 2-3 hours (like I do).
Whether you have an apartment or house, want to lower the noise from your fake drum kit, or want your 80$ investment in Rock Band drums last longer, I overwhelmingly recommend these pads.
Pros: Fit near perfectly, dampen sound even better than home brew mods, inexpensive, will save your pads wear and tear.
Cons: Does not fit ION kit, will eventually need to be replaced.
5/5 - Must Have Item for Drummers

Waste of money
Twenty dollars right out the window. They silence the drums somewhat, but you have to hit harder to get the hits to register so that's kind of a wash. Plus, lots of hits, even the hard ones, don't register, so I quickly got frustrated. On medium, songs I can normally get 100% on were nowhere close and I missed tons of white notes and activations of star power. I can't imagine how this would impact hard/expert drummers.
