Cowbell Hack - Reducing Ring
Вставка

- Kalani shows several ways to reduce the ring in cowbells. Cowbells are often more ringy than we want, so finding ways to mute or reduce the ring makes them more useful and give us more choices when deciding how to use cowbells in our live and recording settings.

I found that flat magnets inside the bell work nicely. And moving them around inside makes a big difference.
The king from shrek 2 that turned into a frog is telling me how to dampen my cowbella
Hell yeah man, thanks for the tips!
I Just wrap shirt around the cowbell, and it works
Just a loop of duct tape, inside the mouth of the bell. Reduces ring but doesnt affect the stick attack.
Back in the day we used to use adhesive moleskin pads for muffling - the kind people use on their feet. Now we have Wambooka, Moongel etc. Much neater. Thanks Kalani!
Yes - Good 'Ol Moleskin! Still does the job.
Or go to the toy store and buy the sticky alphabet.. Same thing as moongel but cost a fraction.
"I could've used a little more cowbell." "I got to have more cowbell." "Guess what? I've got a fever. And the only prescription is more cowbell."

Awesome... I guess we can place the gel inside the bell also, 🤔
many of the cowbells I have bought in the last year came with a couple pieces of foam tape with a peel off sticker with sticky tape on one side of the foam tape...so you can place them inside the bell to deaden the ring....thanks for the ideas....I have some second skin kits for covering blisters that look a lot like your clear jell drum sticky pads you showed here....will have to give them a try. Same idea...they have a plastic peel off on one side that is sticky....
Great advice, ive seen people put duct tape on their cowbells many times but i never knew why, now that i know it I'll definitely try it on my cowbell
Ive got a fever and the only perscription is more cowbell!
I'm wanting to add cowbell to my djemb playing with a foot pedal setup. Any advice?
Flat advertising magnets are great, because you can move them to tune in a note. Best way to dampen. I have 3 x Meinl Chrome bells on a Tama Z-rod mount and they ring right through the mount into the other bells. I may also need to use some clear PVC tube on the rod to try isolate the bell mounts. Cha cha cha.
Just use tape damn it!!!
what if you got a smaller bell which i do
Key Is G#3
For bongo bell you should use another stick
You mean hand cowbell
@@slurpii4669 bongo bell or hand cowbell is the same
Moon gels
It´s called Drum Gel.
хороший совет брат, мне нравится.
Never put duct tape on any instrument. It leaves a ton of adhesive that is not easily removed. Use gaff tape instead.
