The Vic Firth UMPT is a set of practice tips designed for marching percussion, enabling quiet and focused rehearsal without the need for a full drum kit.
Two pairs of practice tips provide ample spare material for regular use
Universal fit adapts to standard marching drumsticks for immediate setup
Compact and lightweight at 2 g per pair — easy to carry in a marching kit
Unlike standard practice pads, the UMPT tips attach directly to existing marching sticks, preserving the natural stick feel and rebound while drastically reducing volume. This makes them ideal for indoor rehearsal spaces, marching band practice, and late-night sessions where noise restrictions apply.
Ideal for...
Marching percussionists, drumline members, and percussion educators who need a quiet, portable practice solution that integrates seamlessly with their existing stick setup — not for casual or one-off use.
Application of Vic Firth UMPT
Slide the practice tip onto the butt end of a standard marching drumstick
Adjust the fit until the tip sits securely and concentrically
Rehearse rudiments, cadences, or full arrangements at reduced volume
Store tips in the provided case or marching bag when not in use
