- Use a drum dampener. Drum dampeners are small devices that can be attached to the drumhead to help reduce ringing. They come in a variety of shapes and sizes, so you can experiment to find the best one for your drums.
- Adjust the tension of the drumhead. A higher tensioned drumhead will produce less ringing than a lower tensioned drumhead. However, be careful not to over-tighten the drumhead, as this can damage the drum.
- Use a towel or blanket inside the drum. Placing a towel or blanket inside the drum can help to absorb some of the sound waves and reduce ringing. Be sure to place the towel or blanket so that it doesn't touch the drumhead.
- Position your drum in a corner. Placing your drum in a corner can help to reduce ringing by reflecting the sound waves back into the drum.
- Use a combination of these techniques. The best way to stop your drum from ringing may be to use a combination of these techniques. Experiment until you find the combination that works best for your drums.
