Silencing equipment used for a drum set comprises a left connecting rod, a left nail head, a left fixing plate, a left spring, a left rubber pad, a cavity, a support plate, a right rubber pad, a right fixing plate, a right nail head, a right connecting rod and a right spring. When a silencing exercise is needed, the left nail head is adjusted so that the left connecting rod pushes the left fixing plate to compress the left spring. An apparatus of the other side of a drum wall carries out a same operation. The two compresses left spring and right spring make the support plate be straight so as to push two sides of the left rubber pad and the right rubber pad to press a drum leather and the drum wall. The formed enclosed cavity is isolated form a drum chamber. When the drum leather is hit, the cavity can achieve a good isolation effect so that a sound is reduced and a hand feeling of a practicer is not influenced. When the silencing needs to be removed or a volume needs to be turned up, retroegulation can be performed so that the left spring and the right spring are stretched properly. The left rubber pad and the right rubber pad are separated from the drum leather and the drum wall properly so that an isolation effect of the cavity is decreased and the drum set can make sound normally.
