I have an electronic drum set, but everytime I play my mum complains that the vibrations are annoying her downstairs, what can I do to make it vibrate less?
There are several things you can try to reduce the vibrations from your electronic drum set:

1. Use vibration isolation pads: Place vibration isolation pads under each component of your drum set. These pads absorb the vibrations and prevent them from traveling through the floor.

2. Use drum set risers: Drum set risers are elevated platforms that you can place your drum set on. They are designed to reduce vibrations and provide a more stable playing surface.

3. Adjust the bass drum beater: The bass drum beater is often the component that creates the most vibration. Try adjusting the beater to strike the drum head with less force. This will reduce the amount of vibration created.

4. Soundproof the room: If possible, soundproof the room where you play your drum set. This will prevent the sound and vibrations from traveling through the walls and floors.

5. Play at different times: If all else fails, try playing your drum set at different times when your mum is not home or is less likely to be disturbed by the vibrations.
I found your reply very helpful, though it maybe lack specificity to an electronic drum set?  Now I wonder if you could help me convince my mum that playing drums is a great hobby?  How might I make a career from this hobby?
