hi, i just bought my roland vcustom kit last month primarily so i can play whenever i want just by popping on a pair of headphones
problem is my neighbors have been complaining b/c they can hear the thumps coming from my kick trigger (KD-7) every time i play
they said they couldn't hear anything else besides a constant thumping so that means that the other pads are quiter (hi hat, snare, toms, cymbals)
so i need to somehow reduce the thump sounds coming from my kick in order to keep playing whenever i want
any suggestions on how i can do this?
one idea i had was to build a 3 sided box that i could put over my kick pedal and trigger, and line this box w/ foam to absorb the thumping sounds
has anyone else had similar problems w/ neighbors? what were your solutions? any recommendations for my solution? is there anything easier to do to muffle the thumping sound?
is the KD-80 V-kick any quieter than my KD-7 since it's also built w/ the mesh heads?
thanks
