Hello Drops®
Dial in your ideal drum tone. Drops reduce sustain and eliminate overtones using only gravity and air to create an active gate effect (no more gels or tape).
Let customers speak for us
from 340 reviewsThese are an excellent alternative to gel dampeners. I find that a single 40g is perfect for most snare drums. The only downside is that they will not fit on my vintage Premier and Sonor drums.
Finally, the perfect balance between dampening and sustain. Like putting tasteful gate plugin on your toms!
These are the best ever. I’ve purchased 3 sets to accommodate my gear. Numerous compliments
We got the 120s and 200s. They work great for a reasonable price. Easy installation.
We got 120s and 200s. Both work like a charm for a reasonable price. Super easy instalation with instant results.
I'm an amateur drummer looking for a good sound. The pieces feel like they're good quality and after some tinkering i settled on the heaviest for the snare and the remaining three smallest to biggest for the 10,12, 14 toms. I'm really pleased with the tone of my drums. The drops reduced the overtones and "noise" while keeping the natural tone of each drum intact. These work "as advertised"
I was very impressed with how easy it was to install these and love how my drum sound without having to use gels
Simply great, they let the drum sing i previously used moongels all over and the sound was acceptable but with drops the tone isn't deadened to the point it's weak i'd recommend anyone use them. I have a tama club jam(13,10,14 and 18) and the snare was by far the worst out of the shell back but this has made the snare sound way better.
I have been pleasantly surprised with the drops. Excellent design.
Excellent and can hear the difference with the sound of the kit, I have a friend that want to purchase Drops. I purchased 2 sets for the drums at church and studio drum set.
Used it on my set to play in an enclosed “auditorium “ and helps to deaden the ‘ring’
Far superior than the gels I had been using! Fantastic item!
these things totally work on gating the floortom. **** genius!

How Drops® work
Live demo

Goodbye, gels
Gels, tape, and adhesives create a sticky mess. They also choke the drum head. Our drums deserve better.

Hello Drops®
Drops are durable and reusable. They attach to standard tension rods with a molded silicone tab. Use them across your kit to dial in your drum tone.

Active gate design
Drops are designed to reduce sustain and eliminate overtones, while letting the drum's natural tone come through. Rather than adhering to the drum head, Drops vibrate with it.

Mix & match
Drops come in four different weights – 40g / 60g / 120g / 200g. Use lighter weights to fatten up the drums, and heavier weights for a tighter, dryer tone.

Easy on/off
Drops grab on to standard tension rods. Press to attach, pull to remove. (Patent pending)

Award winning
Drops earned the "Projects We Love" award on Kickstarter, and went on to raise 8x the original funding goal.

Trusted team
Drops are designed in California by Daniel Kushner, founder and creator of MONO, the world renown luggage and travel accessories brand.

FAQs
Can I hear a demo of how Drops actually sound?
Yes. Go to the Drops® home page and scroll down to the Play Demo section and hit "play" on the video there. Headphones recommended.
Which Drops go on which drums?
Drops are meant to mix and match on your kit. Play around with different weights on each drum to get the tone you're looking for. Generally speaking, the heavier Drops provide a tighter, dryer sound, while the lighter Drops provide a fatter sound. Get the tone you want. No rules.
Can I use Drops on my toms?
Yes. Drops sound great on toms. We like using the 200g "wallet" on the floor tom, and the little 40g or 60g on the rack tom. Experiment and have fun.
Are Drops compatible with all drums?
No. This iteration of Drops is designed for drums with standard steel hoops, including triple flanged and die-cast hoops. Drops aren't designed for wood hoops. Also, vintage Sonor drums with those larger slotted tension rods are not compatible with the current design. We'd like to support wood hoops and vintage tension rods in the future, because they're pretty sweet.
