Hola Levy,
do you have a teacher? Have you searched the bata drums section in this forum for answers? If you are playing with the proper technique and it is still ringing too much, then it is probably the instrument that simply doesn't sound right. Fiberglass will never sound like wood, for example. You'll either have to improvise some kind of dampening or muffling inside the drum or buy another set. Consider, however, that a certain amount of "ring" is what also defines the sound of a drum.
