080-40998370Evans EQ Pods Drum Damper Gels: Precise Tone Control and Reusable Design
The Evans EQ Pods are innovative drum dampening gels designed to give drummers ultimate control over their drum sound. They offer a versatile and non-permanent method to reduce undesirable overtones and sustain, helping to achieve a tighter, more focused, and studio-ready sound. Packaged in a convenient tin, these gels are an essential tool for live performance, studio recording, and even quiet practice.
Key Features for Sonic Sculpting
The EQ Pods stand out due to their thoughtful design and material properties:
Polymer Gel Construction: Made from a unique polymer gel, these dampers provide effective overtone control. The material is formulated to adhere securely to drumheads while being easily removable without leaving residue.
Teflon-Coated Top Side: A distinguishing feature is the Teflon-coated top surface. This coating helps the gels to remain stain-free, resist dirt accumulation, and maintain their shape over extended use, even after repeated stick glances.
Versatile Overtone Control: EQ Pods allow drummers to fine-tune the amount of dampening by simply adding or removing gels, or by adjusting their placement on the drumhead. Placing them closer to the rim provides subtle dampening, while moving them closer to the center or using multiple pods increases the effect.
Reusable and Washable Adhesive: The adhesive on the underside is designed for repeated application and removal without losing its grip or effectiveness. If the pods start to lose their stickiness due to dust or debris, they can be easily rinsed with warm water and mild soap to restore their adhesive properties, making them highly cost-effective and long-lasting.
Variety of Sizes in Pack: Each standard pack (Model: EQPODS) typically includes seven gels: six standard-sized pods and one larger, "jumbo" pod. The larger pod is ideal for bass drums or floor tom heads that require more significant dampening.
Non-Invasive and Stain-Free: EQ Pods adhere firmly but do not leave any sticky residue or stains on drumheads, preserving the integrity and appearance of your drums.
Convenient Storage Tin: The gels come in a durable, road-worthy metal tin, which not only keeps them clean and organized but also makes them easy to transport in a stick bag or gig case.
The Evans EQ Pods are a modern and efficient solution for drummers looking to gain precise control over their drum's resonance and overtones, offering durability, versatility, and ease of use in a compact package.
