Adoro SSX Silent Sticks X-Thick

They really reduce kit volume: especially good for rehearsals when you don't want to deafen your band mates; but I've used them live too. They bounce better than rods if not quite as well as a wooden drumstick, and they're light which takes a little adjusting to. Need to accurately use the tip, as a strike with the shoulder is louder and a very different tone: but you can use that to create accents, once you've got used to them. Very robust; I think'll they'll last for years on end. If you want to drop your volume, try them.

I’m using e-drum.
I wanted to reduce amount of sound when stick hits hi hat and cymbals.
With this stick, it is reduced and replaced with slightly more high pitch sound because rubber string hitting the surface instead of hard wood.
Downside is you need more force to hit cymbals for e-drum module to produce the same volume compared to wood stick.
Overall, I’m happy with this as the hitting sound is quieter and downside is acceptable for me.
