Meinl MDH Drum Honey Damper Gel Pads – 6 Pack
Safe and secure checkout
Meinl Drum Honey is a set of reusable gel damper pads designed to help control unwanted overtones and sustain on drums and cymbals.
Simply place a gel pad on the drum head or cymbal surface to reduce ring, shorten sustain and tighten up the sound. They can be removed and repositioned as needed, making them a quick and practical way to adjust your drum tone without using tape, tissues or permanent damping.
This MDH pack includes 6 orange Drum Honey gel pads, supplied in a transport box to help keep them clean when not in use.
What Do They Actually Do?
Drum Honey pads help calm down unwanted ring and overtones.
On a snare drum, they can tighten the sound and reduce excess buzz or ring. On toms, they can shorten the sustain for a more controlled kit sound. On cymbals, they can help reduce wash and make the response drier.
They are useful when your drum sounds too open, too ringy or too lively for the room, recording setup or style of music.
Why Use Gel Dampers?
Gel dampers are quick, simple and removable.
Unlike tape or permanent damping, you can move them around until the drum sounds right. Placing the pad closer to the edge gives one type of control, while moving it further in can have a stronger damping effect.
They are also washable, so if they lose stickiness from dust or dirt, they can be cleaned and reused.
Who Are They For?
Meinl Drum Honey is useful for drummers, students, teachers, studios, churches, rehearsal rooms and live sound setups.
They are especially handy for recording, where drum overtones often need more control, and for venues where the kit needs to sound tighter in the room.
If you want a completely open, natural drum sound, you may not need damping. If you want quick control without permanently changing the drum, these are a very useful accessory.

Not Sure If These Are the Right Drum Dampers?
Meinl Drum Honey is a good choice if you want quick, removable control over drum ring and cymbal wash.
If you only need very light damping, start with one pad and adjust the position. If you need heavier control, try using more than one pad or compare with larger damping options such as the Drum Honey Slab.
