Works well! A little goes a long way and placement is everything in terms of where on the head you need it. Worth the purchase...invisioned the sound I needed and got it!

Ring muffles - tight full sound
Comments:
These muffles help control over-ring in toms and bass drums while preserving the tone of the drums. If you want your to have a tight, studio sound then these are perfect! Use two on the bass drum and one below the batter head of your toms. Not recommended for snare drums unless you want a very dry snare.

Great
Comments:
These Ring Muffles are AMAZING. We used them to control the overtones on a pair of quads, and they worked PERFECTLY. Clear and sharp sounds.

A reliable standard for bass-drum muffling
Comments:
I've used the Remo Ring Control Muff'l on the batter head of my bass drum for many years (see my book The Human Drummer). I prefer to leave the front head unmuffled, but sometimes for miked playing I use a Muff'l on that head as well. I use a clear Emperor batter head with a Remo Mini Falam Slam (to prevent a dent from my wood pedal beater) and a FiberSkyn 3 Ambassador front head. The Ring Control Muff'l dampens the batter head just enough for rock (24") or jazz (20"), retains the warm tone, and even seems to enhance the low-end punch, something I've found lacking in the premuffled heads I've tried. The Muff'l is ugly (though it's prettier and lighter than a pillow), and the thin plastic channel that rests on the bearing edge eventually cracks with age. Until something better comes along, though, the Remo Ring Control Muff'l works for me.

Does the job
Comments:
Very effective. The only thing you need to be careful about is getting the right size. Maybe one that is slightly larger than your drum.
