I previously had some old mousemats over the drum pads but decided to mod them properly.

Basically got some circular foam pads which have a adhesive side.

The main thing is to make sure you clean the pads before sticking the foam onto them as otherwise you may find the foam doesn’t stick very well.
I used lighter fluid to clean mine as then I knew it would be dry after. (also I have some for cleaning heatsinks)

Another thing which really makes a difference to playing is getting some proper drum sticks. I am currently using some 5AN (nylon tip) ones.
