About
T-towels® turn live drums into 1960s magic, creating that classic muffled tone sought after by drummers and producers everywhere. They lower the pitch slightly, reduce volume a few dB, and smooth out harsh overtones while preserving just the right amount of sustain, and the subtle sonic artifacts that keep the drums feeling alive. The result? Drums that sit clean in the mix, with a warm, punchy tone that leaves space for everything else.
The secret to the T-towels sound is the material. T-suede™ is a proprietary synthetic suede custom-engineered for T-towels. It feels luxurious in your hands and sounds incredible on the kit.
Use them flat or folded. Each T-towel includes a magnetic clasp to keep them clean and consistent when folded.
T-towels 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)

The T towels sound amazing! Very pleased!
I play in a variety of situations from jazz to rock bands. The towel is perfect for when I have to get a vintage 70s Don Henley sound for the Eagles Tribute band I play with and then rolled up to get a sharer attack when I need to crack som rim shots.
Especially nice for low,low, low volume gigs where you still need a Ringo like approach without the db level. It also helps me change from open toms to tight and focused quickly.
I am amazed at the tone these create. While dampened the drums don't sound muffled or deadened. They sound lively and clear. The pitch comes through beautifully with solid attack rather than slap. Tandem's description is completely accurate but doesn't manage to capture the sound. I love these.
I bought the individual 16” towel as the kit in the studio where we practice, as well as every backline house kit I use, sports two rack toms and one floor tom. Since I use one of the 16” towels in the 3-pc pack previously purchased for the snare, this left one tom uncovered. After taping a micro-fiber towel to the floor tom batter head for weeks, I decided to buy another 16” towel for the floor tom. I’ll be using it for the first time tonight.
