- Use brushes instead of sticks. Brushes are made of thin metal wires and produce a softer sound.
- Hit the drums with the sides of the sticks instead of the tips. This will also produce a softer sound.
- Play on the practice pad instead of the drum kit. A practice pad is a rubber or foam pad that is used for练习 drums. It will produce a much quieter sound than a drum kit.
- Put pillows or blankets around the drums. This will help to absorb some of the sound.
- Move the drums to a different room. If you live in an apartment or have neighbors close by, moving the drums to a different room will help to keep the noise down.
- Use an electronic drum kit. Electronic drum kits produce very little sound, so they are a good option for practicing in a quiet environment.
