Is the rebound coming from the tensioned head or is the head just resting on the pad underneath? I guess what I'm trying to ask is, does this pad offer the same rebound as a snare or is the head mostly there for its texture?
I have the same practice pad, but I feel a little little air space between the ruber base and the back of the drumhead. Iess of 1 mm. It is minimal, but that affects some precision strokes like press roll. Do you feel the same on your practice pad? may be is normal in these kind of pad.
Hi German. Do you still have the "problem" with the air space between the rubber base and the drumhead? I noticed the same on my new Sabian 14" pad and I could reduce the space by tuning the pad down (lowering the tension on the head). I was also wondering if it would improve by changing the head to a snare head that had been used already for a while and therefore is already broken in. Maybe that would reduce the space as well but I haven't tried that yet.
@@dennisfrehse exactly. with a low tuning the space is reduced as with a heavily used drumhead. because it maintains a downward sloping shape. but this makes me think that it is not a good pad. I left behind all my pads since I got the prologix red storm. I recommend it to you. is very real.
hello, Would you say the sabian quiet tone are the best for brushes now?If not which one? I am starting to learn brushes and need a pad ASAP. Thx a lot! :)
Thanks for ur review, I would like to buy one to replace my Evans Real Feel practice pad
Kind of a trivial thing.. but any guesses as to who makes the stock heads on those Sabian Quiet Tones?
don't know but you can put any 14" head on it.

it is a tensioned head
@@JamesAnimalHarrison Thank you for your reply! All right, you've convinced me to get one.
Would it be possible to put a marching snare head on it? How’s the tension?
It's not designed to take that kind of pressure on the tuning.

Haven't really noticed that. It you play harder it's good to use the springs to clamp it down

So when you put the pad on the snare, it's still reall loud.
Er, OK.
Yes.....It's not a pad...it's a drum mute. It brings the sound of the drum down significantly compared to not using it.

In place of a real drum....the Sabian Quiet Tone 14" pad is the best for brushes ( for the price).
@@JamesAnimalHarrison thx a lot !! could you quote another product/s
Henry Adler designed and marketed the original Quiet Tone Mute. I still have mine.
