Effortless Tone Control: Attack Buzz Kill Gel Dampening System Super-Tacky, Washable Resonance Control

The Vater Buzz Kill Gel Dampening System is an easy-to-use solution designed to eliminate unwanted overtones, harsh ring, and excessive decay on both drums and cymbals. Featuring a super-tacky formulation, these gels adhere securely to both batter and resonant heads without slipping during intense performances. They are fully reusable and can be quickly cleaned with water when dirty to restore their original stickiness. Furthermore, drummers can easily cut the gels to size to achieve the exact amount of dampening required for live or studio settings. Each standard pack includes 6 Buzz Kill gels.

Extra Dry Variant for Flat Snares and Controlled Ride Wash

For applications requiring maximum dampening and heavy overtone control, the Buzz Kill Extra Dry version offers increased mass and weight:

• Larger Drums & Flat Snare Sounds: Ideal for medium to large drums, making it effortless to dial in a retro, funky, super-flat snare tone.
• Cymbal Articulation: Drastically reduces cymbal wash, ping buildup, and ring to produce crisp, dry, and highly defined stick articulation—especially when applied to ride cymbals.
