Abstract:
A drum damper includes a first body having a first surface and a second surface, and the first body includes a slot and a fader button positioned on the first surface of the first body and configured to slide along the slot. A second body is connected with the second surface of the first body and configured to releasably attach with a drum. Flexible bodies are connected with the second body, configured to dampen sound or vibration from a drum head and be in contact with the drum head, and connected with the fader button through the slot so that, when the fader button slides along the slot, the flexible bodies increase or reduce surface area contact with the drum head.
