Cheers Walt,the vibration is going throught the concrete floor,I 
have layed some towels underneath,the kick pedal,it seems to be alot 
better,but I`m gonna try putting some foam and insulating tape round 
the beater,I tied putting something soft round it tempory,that was 
alot quieter,at least Im thinking of my neighbours,I could have been 
a right b*****d and bought an acoustic kit at a fraction of the 
price.Seems U just cant win!!!! Russell
