damn, beater noise on an ekit are too loud for your neighbors? I'd replace the neighbors.

Well, my kit is right in the corner on a support wall, and it's an alesis DM pad (real mylar head) so while there's not drum sound, the beater and head makes a HUGE racket. (also, my metal "surge" cymbals make an obnoxiously loud noise too - I've been using tama "silent tips" to compensate).

Basically it's the equivalent to me up here hammering away on something, combined with the actual stomping noise of my foot's impact. For the latter, I've been adding padding and absorption under the pedals, but the former is still bad.

My neighbors are actually the best I've had under me in 10+ years. That's why I'm killing myself to be considerate. This is the first people that HAVEN'T complained about noise, smell of POT, etc....
