Double Bass Apartment practice

[ctrlzjones]

Not sure how much muting this achieves but in my apartment I practice on a yoga mat. It offers some muting of the downward moving sound waves and it helps my back.

I still prefer my old tennis shoe [adidas 80s vintage, gold stripes and kangaroo leather, cannot read the models name anymore] for damping. It feels and looks more classy than a modern yoga mat.
