Drum Workshop Go Anywhere Practice Pad Set

Overall:
ddrum Drum Workshop Go Anywhere Practice Pad Set The ddrum Drum Workshop Go Anywhere Practice Pad Set is a great tool for all drummers with any experience. I was pleasantly surprised at the level of ingenuity on dw’s part. While I do have some issues with the setup, for the price you can’t beat it. (Pun not intended) The Go Anywhere Practice Pad Set was not overwhelmingly user friendly. There were multiple parts, washers, and adjustments that needed to be made, although no tools were required aside from the drum key provided. I was happy to see that the kick pad accepted double bass pedal setups. Overall the setup felt as comfortable as you could expect a practice pad rig to feel. I set mine up with a hi-hat, snare, ride cymbal, and floor tom. My only real disappointment with the set is the hi-hat rod did not seem quite long enough to setup directly to the left of the snare. I could shorten the snare rod and get it pretty close, but I was too close to the kick pedal to play comfortably. Aside from the hi-hat I felt like the kick pad was a little too bouncy to feel realistic. Overall the pros of this set (mostly the price) far outweigh the cons. Just for a kick and snare pad of this quality you’re looking at $70-80. For $130 you get 5 pads and all the hardware to mount it! I would highly recommend this Go Anywhere Practice Pad Set to anyone in the market for silent practice at home, or a portable warm-up tool. Mike Moyer -- http://junglekit.com
