What's included
A set of all four Drops® (4 pcs total), one of each weight: 40g / 60g / 120g / 200g. This is the ideal starting place to provide options across the drum kit. Try using the smaller weights (40g / 60g) on rack toms 8"-12". Try the larger weights (120g / 200g) on floor toms 13"-18". For snare drums, all weights provide great options. Tip: try doubling up heavier weights on floor toms, and doubling up lighter weights on the snare.
About
Drops® are a new way to enhance drum tone without gels or adhesives. Using only gravity, Drops reduce sustain with an active gate effect that lets the drum's natural tone come through upon impact. Use Drops on snares, rack toms and floor toms. Mix and match different weights to get your drum tone just right. Drops attach to any standard tension rod by a molded silicon tab. Just push on the thumbprint to attach, and pull up to remove. Designed by Tandem Drums in California. (Patents pending)

I bought this product to “give it a try” and now that I have I am amazed how well they work.
Wide open roto toms are a bear to tone down! In small rooms they can be a bit much. The kit I'm using is a rental I send out to "open jams" and these DROPS are PERFECT!
The 50 gram for the snare is awesome. When I used the smaller weights they make a slight buzz from the beads. I would make no buzzing for toms. The smaller weights are not big enough for Tom’s. So for me I would use the bigger pads for dampening. I have a DW collectors kits with remo emperor white coated heads.
Need more weight than you think to make a difference.
I really like the heavy one but the smaller ones seem ineffective
