Having a big fat snare drum ring head on, low tuning on top head, high on low head, and a proper mix on the mixer🔥if you want that concert fat snare drum
Hey, Yea the big fat snare drum lowers the pitch of the drum but actually lets the drum ring more than you'd think. The O ring really cuts the ring of the drum but doesn't lower the pitch as much as the big fat.
Snare rattle is going to happen regardless but I think that it might have to do with the tuning of your snare and the tension of the snare wires. I think it also gets exaggerated when the tom and snare are tuned close in pitch.
Mess with your snare tension, I personally put a thin strip of felt between the head and snare and it eliminates almost all buzz and I dig how it sounds.
I learned the paper trick out of necessity…long before I could afford real drums I had an old bongo drum lying around … I’d put paper over that and got a sharish sound, combined with a shitty tambourine and the arm of a sofa for the kick drum, I recorded loads of music like that when I was 10 years old… but you would need to change the paper during the song as it would inevitably rip. Once I had a shitty drum kit the snare just wasn’t sounding like a snare so I tried the paper like I’d done and got the right amount of crack by adding that!! There’s a load of records I have from the late 70s early 80s where similar things have been done!!
I love using the ol' wallet to muffle the snare, while it's a great for taking away overtones it doesn't really lower the pitch of the drum and make it "fat". But it's still a classic!
Imagine thinking an audio engineer has never thought to put things on the snare to make it sound different lol wtf people are already running out thinge to make content about
All of this unnecessary it’s all in the mics and adjusting things from there not all this. First thing your engineers gonna do is tear all that outta there 🤦♀️
Old shirt honorable mention
Man, I have the exact same bandana😅 like a copy of what's on top of your snare
Same. Mine’s on my floor tom
paper works great with just one sheet. tuck the corners in between the rim & head
that's a good trick!
You can go up to a few sheets even ! Max Sansalone has a vid or 2 showing this
I always just took an old snare head, flipped it upside down and it fits perfectly into the rims
I like the bandanna, reversed head, and paper the best.
I always just tuned it.

The bandana or tea towel was"invented" by Ringo Starr.
I set my giant balls directly on my snare to get the phattest snare sound ever 👍 follow me for more great drum tech tips ✌️
Tell me more.
Big fat snare drum Sounds nice but it's eating a lot of the rebound If you wanna play some fast stuff
paper sounds killer!
Paper slaps harder than Will Smith!
thank u ringo
We all know which one is the winner 😊
Paper, never heard of that! It sounds like the song Don’t bring me down by ELO
I use 2 moon gel and my phone on top of the head
Try using a small hand towel it sounds way more flat
Kyle, the o ring sounds a little more muffled than the big fat. What did it sound like to you live?

How do you guys maintain snare sound so good with no buzz of spring? When I hit the Tom then snare always sound rattling which makes it worst!!!

Big fat for the win!
Drumpler MSM be like: I AM THE FATTEST SNARE DRUM

I don't use a rim on snare and I aquire a somewhat " fat sound"

Bandana
I plonk a cowbell on the snare, makes it very fat
that was vultures hahahah
Forget that snare! Tell me about your kick sound
ngl the bandana and paper sounded better to me
Why the brands quit the damper include on drums now people put any sh*** on the drums 😂
Paper? Wtf. And where is the wallet man?

Fat snare sounds are so over rated

Learn how to tune!!You won’t need any of that. Dampening is for people that don’t know how to tune drums.
It all sounds similar, and none of it sounds very good. Try again
I swear the og bfsd sounds so bad
It's definitely not right for every situation.
