DIY on-timpano practice pad: a towel. Seriously — just a towel. Fold it over for more resistance and less sound. Fold it over enough, and you’ll end up with a seriously unforgiving workout surface.
.
I like the towel method, because it means I can sit at the timpani like a regular ole timpanist, and warm up. I have timpani pads, too, but this is pretty darn convenient.
.
The only downside? I occasionally have to move it back into place after I play on it for awhile, but it reminds me of a typewriter, so it’s cool. Lol
