    • A device for dampening sounds produced by a drumhead of a musical drum having a drumshell comprising a frame assembly having a first elongated bar member with a first channel and a second elongated bar member with a second channel. The two bar members are disposed in opposed spaced apart parallel relation. Mounting brackets are affixed and secured to the two bar members at their opposing ends. Attached, respectively, to the two mounting brackets between the two bar members are the opposing ends of an assembly of snare wires. The mounting brackets are also provided to connect the assembly to the drumshell and are vertically adjustable between a high tension position such that the snare wires are moved to press against the drumhead and a lower tension position in which the wires are caused to relax to enable the release of tension of the wires against the drumhead. The dampening member has end components adapted to fit slidably into the first and second channels, respectively, to enable the dampening member to be movable between the two elongated bar members along the frame assembly in physical contact with the snare wires to adjust the tension of the wires against the drumhead to produce a variety of sounds. The dampening member is comprised of a base member, a device for physically contacting the snare wires as it is moved along the frame assembly and a resilient material situated between the base member and the contact device to buffer vibrations produced by the struck drumhead.
