What customers say
Enthusiasts overwhelmingly praise the Meletrix Zoompad Extra Weights for significantly enhancing stability and tactile feel.

Know before you buy
No, these external weights are designed exclusively for the Zoom98 keyboard. They will not fit other models in the Zoom series.
The primary difference is weight and finish. Brass is significantly denser, providing a heavier feel to the board, while Aluminum offers a lighter profile with a matte anodized finish.
Yes, adding mass to the chassis can subtly dampen vibrations and deepen the acoustic profile of your keyboard. Brass, being denser than aluminum, typically results in a more muted, solid sound signature.
The PVD mirror finish on the brass weights provides a highly reflective, polished surface that is more prone to showing fingerprints. The Aluminum Ano finishes offer a smooth, matte texture that is generally more resistant to smudges.
The weights are designed to integrate seamlessly with the Zoom98 mounting system. All necessary hardware for installation is included with the weight kit.
