Protection Racket launches new mat markers
An end to the pain of taking down kits?
We all know that setting up and taking down kits is a major pain at gigs.
But, the guys at Protection Racket have come up with something that could take the stress out of the whole process.
The company´s new drum mat markers aim to allow drummers to ensure their kit is set up quickly every time.
Protection Racket´s 123 system means that users set their kit up on their mat as normal and then place circle markers underneath stands and drum legs.
The firm´s Velcro backing and a numbered marker system means that kits can be set up to the user´s particular needs easily and quickly, allowing drummers to enjoy a stress-free post-gig experience.

I'm MusicRadar's eCommerce Editor. In addition to testing the latest music gear, with a particular focus on electronic drums, it's my job to manage the 300+ buyer's guides on MusicRadar and help musicians find the right gear for them at the best prices. I dabble with guitar, but my main instrument is the drums, which I have been playing for 24 years. I've been a part of the music gear industry for 20 years, including 7 years as Editor of the UK's best-selling drum magazine Rhythm, and 5 years as a freelance music writer, during which time I worked with the world's biggest instrument brands including Roland, Boss, Laney and Natal.
