Historical Context and Positioning in the Range
Developed in collaboration with Benny Greb, the Meinl Knee Pad Mount follows the "maximum efficiency, zero hassle" approach: allowing drummers to practice and warm up without relying on a stand. Within the training accessories range, it is a compact and straightforward solution designed to multiply playing moments daily-at home, backstage, on the road, or in the dressing room.
Who This Accessory Is For
This knee mount is intended for all drummers: beginners who want to practice regularly without setting up equipment, intermediate players seeking consistency, and advanced drummers needing a reliable tool for warm-ups before rehearsals or concerts. It suits all styles (rock, funk, jazz, metal, pop) whenever you want to work on precision, consistency, rudiments, and rebound control, with a pad positioned as close as possible to your playing posture.
Features and Innovations
The concept is simple and effective: you screw a compatible practice pad onto the threaded mount, then strap the whole assembly to your leg. The result: a minimalist setup that eliminates the pad stand, reduces bulk, and speeds up your start. The heavy-duty strap ensures stable hold, while the large quick-release buckle allows instant removal, even between sessions.
Note: pad not included. The Knee Pad Mount is designed to work with most pads featuring an 8 mm threaded connection.
Sound Characteristics
A mount does not directly influence the tone like a shell or cymbal would, but it affects the playing feel and thus your technique. Attached to the leg, the pad stays close to the body: you can more easily work on stick height control, wrist-finger alignment, and precision of low-volume strokes. This setup is particularly useful for control exercises (ghost notes, doubles, accents) and for quick warm-ups before moving to the snare drum.
