Claim:
1. An apparatus for maintaining a drum acoustically separated from an underlying support, comprising: a body having a first side adapted for engagement upon a supporting surface of a support for a bottom side of said drum; said body having a second side opposite said first side configured for a contact upon a circumferential edge of said bottom side of said drum positioned thereon in an as-used positioning of said drum, elevated above said supporting surface of said support; said second side having a first section and a second section intersecting at an angle; said first section in communication with said circumferential edge at or adjacent an intersection between said first section and said second section; a gap formed between said second section of said second side and said bottom side of said drum in said as-used positioning; and said gap increasing in size from a minimum distance adjacent said intersection to a maximum distance adjacent a distal end of said second section opposite said intersection; said body formed of compressible material, said compressible material being resilient.; and whereby communication of vibration from said drum to said support is prevented by said body positioned in-between said circumferential edge and said supporting surface, thereby increasing sound resonating from said drum caused by said vibration.
