Roland NE10 Noise Eater

The NE-10 Noise Eater is a unique sound isolation board designed specifically for use with V-Drums kick pads/pedals and hi-hat control pedals. Thanks to its multiple dome-shaped rubber dampers` placing the NE-10 under a pedal/pad dramatically reduces the transfer of noises and vibrations through the floor caused by normal playing. This allows users in multi-level buildings to enjoy V-Drums freely without disturbing people occupying rooms or dwellings below. The NE-10 Noise Eater is very easy and convenient to use` with a compact` low-profile design that doesn’t affect feel or playability.

• Highly effective sound isolation for V-Drums kick pad/pedal combinations and hi-hat pedals
• Low-profile design and rubber dampers maintain stability and playability
• Reduces playing noise and vibration transfer through the floor to rooms below by approximately 75 percent` based on Roland test data
• Lets users enjoy playing V-Drums without disturbing family members and neighbors
• Ideal for drummers that live in multi-level homes` apartments` and condos; also great for multi-level lesson studios and music classrooms
• Use standalone with KD-9 Kick Pad` KD-7 Kick Trigger` or FD-8 Hi-Hat Control Pedal
• When the NE-10 is used with a KD-140/KD-120 V-Kick or hi-hat stand for the VH-13/VH-11 V-Hi-Hat` companion NE-1 Noise Eater units (sold separately) must also be used under stand legs for maximum effectiveness

Noise Eater Technology for V-Drums: The Easy Solution to Acoustic Noise Transfer Problems

Roland’s innovative Noise Eater technology helps V-Drums users enjoy playing any time without disturbing family members and neighbors in adjoining rooms and living spaces. One of the many benefits of V-Drums—and their patented mesh-head pads in particular—is that they’re extremely quiet acoustically` allowing players to use headphones to practice and record in situations where it would be impossible to use acoustic drums. However` the physical action of using kick and hi-hat pedals in a multi-level building can result in unwelcome noise and vibration being transferred to rooms below via direct sound conduction through the floor. Based on Roland’s tests` the unique isolating properties of Noise Eater products reduce this noise transfer by approximately 75 percent over using pedals without them` a dramatic improvement that lets you play day or night in situations where the noise could otherwise be a problem.
