Description

The Chord DMH-8 is a mesh drum head made for quiet practice and electronic drum kits. It uses a tensile nylon mesh in place of a solid drumhead, which gives a low volume rebound rather than a loud, resonant tone. If you need to play without disturbing the rest of the house, or you want a natural feel from your electronic kit, this is a straightforward way to get there.

The mesh construction produces a muted sound while keeping a responsive stick feel, so your playing stays close to what you would get from a standard head. That makes it a good option for late night practice, quiet rooms and drum triggers. The woven nylon holds tension well, so you can tune it to suit your preferred rebound, from soft and loose to tight and lively.

This head is sized for 8in drums, which covers many toms and smaller practice pads. Fitting is the same as any standard drumhead, so it drops straight onto your existing hoop and lugs. Whether you are building a full electronic kit, converting an acoustic kit for silent practice or simply replacing a worn head, the DMH-8 keeps things simple and quiet.

Frequently Asked

What size drum does the DMH-8 fit?

It is made for 8in drums, so it suits smaller toms and practice pads that take an 8in head.

Why is a mesh head quieter than a normal drumhead?

The woven nylon mesh lets air pass through instead of resonating like a solid head, so it produces a muted sound while keeping a natural stick rebound.

Can I use this on an electronic kit?

Yes. Mesh heads are commonly used with electronic drum kits and triggers because they give a quiet, responsive feel.

Can I tune the mesh head?

Yes. The nylon mesh holds tension, so you can adjust it with your tension rods to set the rebound you prefer.

Does it fit standard 8in hoops and lugs?

Yes. It fits the same way as any standard 8in drumhead, so it goes straight onto your existing hardware.
