    The volume of a drummer is subjective and depends on the venue, the style of music, and the wishes of the audience and other band members. However, it is generally advisable for drummers to use a low-to-medium volume when practicing at home, to avoid disturbing neighbors and to protect their own hearing. In a professional setting, drummers should adjust their volume to fit the mix of the band and the acoustics of the venue, and be prepared to use various techniques to reduce the volume if necessary, such as using different drum strokes, adjusting the distance between the beater and the drumhead, or using drum tuning and dampening techniques.
