Remo Silentstroke Drumhead, 10"

This head is awesome! Not only is it incredibly quiet, it is also very durable. A lot of people ask, "Will it hold up under my sticks?" The answer is yes. I have had this head on my snare for over a month now, and so far, it has not shown even the slightest signs of the normal wear and tear you would get with a regular head. One thing I have trouble with, is hitting the drum about three times harder than I normally hit it, because it is so quiet. my ears tell me to hit the drum harder to get a louder sound. However, this head has held up amazingly well, through all my hard hits, this past month. The heads are very responsive, and have excellent rebound. One nice thing about these heads is that they decrease the overtones you would get with a normal head. You do not need any overtone killers on these babies. One thing you should know about these heads is that chewed up sticks will tear the heads, so I recommend using nylon-tipped sticks. These heads were meant for practice, but I have found that they also function well in a studio environment. These drum heads are an excellent product.

Lasted 7 years before breaking a hole, great sound but still quiet enough for practice

These are a game changer.

The Silentstroke series heads are one of the best deals out there, especially in comparison to brands like Hart and Pearl. Hart heads are really nice---and really expensive. The Pearl heads are cheap in price but not nearly as nice as the Remo heads. After getting frustrated with the tiny drum pads on the Roland kit that I use at church I began to consider converting my Ludwig kit to an e-kit. But, the cost of heads was pretty daunting, not to mention triggers. But, the Silentstroke series solved my problem as far as cost and I was able to head the entire kit for a very reasonable price. They are perfect for my needs---extremely low volume and the triggers work very well with them. They also play like a real head, too. For a practice kit or e-kit conversion you can't go wrong.

I bought the Remo Silent Stroke / Zildjian L80 package and it had the wrong size on one of the heads for my kit so this was to replace it. Amazing how much quieter it is. Takes some time to get the feel right with tuning but worth it.

My gripes with this product are less an issue with the product itself as much as my personal opinion. I tore a hole in my top tom and had been looking around to try a new head (I intended to replace all my drumheads when I found one I wanted) and figured this would be a good starting point, since I play inside a house and have close by neighbors. First, I want to give credit to the design of these heads, which is not readily apparent in pictures. When you look at it up close, the head itself has a mesh that is very similar to patio screen, which would not lend confidence to any sense of durability, but these heads can seriously take a beating, and that's impressive. I also have to admit that the mesh design really does dull the sound, but that's where my personal problems come into play. It doesn't just reduce the sound by 30/40/50%...it's more like 95%. I can sit there and see myself hitting the head and hear almost no audible tone come out of it. The only thing I hear when I hit it is the stick hitting the mesh, there might as well not be a drum behind it at all. Tightening it helped a little, but only a very small amount and it got to a point where the rebound was unrealistically strong, so I ended up just not using it after a while and moved on to another regular drumhead (Evans EC2 heads, love 'em). I really think this is probably a great product for parents of a 6-13 year old kid who wants to play drums, but doesn't want to drive the entire house insane. It provides an ability to play in cramped spaces, but at the cost of creating any notable tone. This was too much of a trade-off for me, but as stated, there are certainly uses where it would be worth it.

Added a full set of these to an acoustic kit outfitted with Extreme Drum triggers and they work great as a very low sound electronic kit I can play when my kids are sleeping. They are more bouncy than an acoustic head, but you can get used to them very quickly. They also work well as a very low volume practice kit set-up. The multi ply heads do have a better feel, but they are louder, so it is all about balancing what your needs are.

The Silent Stroke heads are amazing! They cut down the sound of your drums to a level that's acceptable to everyone in the house, and they feel great. The only "problem" is that if you want to hear your actual drums, you need to take the time to switch out the heads. These heads would be perfect either for someone who doesn't have the option of playing at full volume in his practice space, or for someone who has dedicated practice and gigging kits.

今回、購入したドラムセットを全部 REMOのメッシュタイプに代えました。近所迷惑、考えないで練習できますよ。

I bought this 22" Remo Silentstroke Head for my acoustic Drum Kit ahead of shooting a trio of music videos, with a view to use it for practice afterwards. The reason being, (a) keeping playback as low as possible for the video shoots (as full volume playback can be brutal with drums at full volume!) and (b) for practice on an actual kit at home - Having played my Roland V-drums so much, I find the changeover to my acoustic kit a bit of a jump if it's been a while. Well - This Silentstroke head absolutely fulfilled both scenarios with ease. In terms of build - It's a mesh head in place of the usual mylar, very much like a v-drum, but mounted to a metal ring just like a normal drum head. It's as easy to fit as a normal head, with the added benefit that you can simply tune loose or tight for feel, without having to worry about the pitch or tone. Like all mesh heads it has more rebound, but the addition of a EQ patch tames that - it also adds a little clickier tone, which of course makes it a tiny, tiny bit louder. In terms of home practice, these mesh heads are quieter than my v-drum kit, using the EQ patch for a more realistic rebound does increase the perceived volume a tiny % - it's impact noises like those that tend to carry through a house. Anyway - it retains a little bit of tone and a tiny bit of resonance just on it's own, so I used it for all three shoots and it didn't take over at all - and at home, it's near silent in the next room. Highly recommend - I'm keeping mine on my bass drum at home now whenever I'm not taking it out rehearsing or gigging!

打感はそれほど違和感なく、思い切り叩いても音は小さい。買って良かったです。

Bien

I use the Silent Stroke head on a triggered snare drum for use in a Def Leppard Tribute band as well as for home studio use with an E kit along with live cymbals. I needed to eliminate snare bleed in the live overhead mic channels so I went to a mesh head. Its lively, no doubt, but it works great if you stretch a piece of felt under the head, which makes it a little less boingy. It had virtually no impact on my triggering performance. You can pay 80 bucks for something that may be marginally better or save a bunch and grab a Silent Stroke like I did. Im happy.
