Hi Carlos
I don't live above anybody, but I have heard that the kick drum and pedal and the rack contact with the floor are the culprits for your neighbors hearing problem. lol! 

There is a tennis ball solution that you can build;

it is called...
tennisballisolation.pdf in the files section of the group
(this is a construction "how to" for a tennis ball drum isolation platform)

Also there is the possibility of putting a rubber or foam pad under your drum kit as a temporary solution...or try it and see! 

You may also be able get some of those acoustic foam panels off ebay and glue them to a piece of plywood and lay it foam down to get a similar effect!

Hope that helps!
Tom

Hi all
I live in an apartment (condominium) and my neighbors, specially the 
one under my floor, claim that they hear noises when I play my DTX. 
Really they are very sensible... I only use earphones. So the sound is 
only the pads, no loudspeaker. Has anybody done some kind of accoustic 
isolation in their rooms that can help me with ideas.
Carlos
