If you drive them on the street a lot between track days, the pad transfer layer will eventually wear off and they’ll become noisy again, so at that point you re-bed them and they’ll be near silent except a tiny bit of squealing when coming slowly to a full stop, but for me it wasn’t objectionable.
The DTC 30/60 I was using on OEM where the same. Bed them in prior to track and they were good. Once you were on the street it didn't take long for the compound on the rotor to vanish. They were loud!

I've spoken to Essex about using the 3.12 on the front and 2500 on rear and they don't see that as an issue.
