Bass drum creep does NOT refer to the scary guy with the bass drum, its the phrase used to describe the frustrating predicament when your kick drum begins sliding further and further away from you with each and every stroke of your bass drum pedal.

Setting up your kit on a very good thick rug or a carpet that the spikes at the finish of your bass drum legs can sink their teeth into will usually support maintain bass drum creep at bay. (If your bass drum legs do not have spikes, replace them with ones that do. Any decent drum shop will carry replacement bass drum legs at a reasonable price.)

Make confident your carpet is big adequate to fit your whole kit, like your throne. The weight of your physique on the throne will help hold the bass drum from sliding away with the entire carpet.

Adjust the bass drum legs so that the front of the drum is an inch or two off the ground and the drum is resting at a slight angle. This shifts more of the drums weight onto the legs themselves and helps the spikes dig in a lot more efficiently, which must put an end to most bass drum creep issues.

Occasionally, specially for those of us kicking the drum quite hard in loud scenarios, setting up on a carpet is just not adequate!

Here is an extra small trick that will Finish bass drum creep troubles.

Take a 3 foot lengthy 2x4 piece of wood. I have some good fabric glued around it to make it appear pretty, supply some protection to the drums, and stop splinters. Now mark your carpet exactly where you want the front of your bass drum to sit. Drill three quarter inch diameter holes via the wood  1 hole in the middle and one near each and every finish.

Utilizing some nice, large, 2 inch washers and 1/4 inch thick bolts  really bolt the wood to your carpet at the front edge of your bass drum. Make sure to put the flattest component of the bolt on the under side of the carpet so that your carpet nevertheless lays quite flat.  I also like to put a layer or two of gaffers tape more than the end of the bolt so that it does not scratch up any nice wooden floors that take place to be underneath the carpet.

Now when you set up just slide the front of the bass drum right up against the piece of wood you have bolted to the carpet, and it will not slide any further!

It operates greatest if you get the wood wide adequate that the legs themselves actually bump up against the wood block even though it will perform fine with the rim of the drum against the wood block - just be positive to cover the wood with foam or thick fabric to avoid the wood from damaging the rim and lugs of your drum!

Let me know how properly it operates for you. [http://saksham.org/wiki/index.php?title=DorisNecaise544 chair mat for carpet]
