Guest epsy Posted February 21, 2009 Report Share Posted February 21, 2009 this guy brilliantly put together a vid showing you pretty much everything you shouldn't do to tune a snare drum. he does it in a way where u cant tell he's joking, gettin ppl to put corn starch into drums etc. Let's hijack the comment section so people not knowing any better try this shit here's mine "This helped alot. Gives me a sound similar to john bonham's superphonic! even with a wood snare drum! Your method is second to none and who would have ever thought of corn starch? what a great way to carry the torch in ways some people here obviously DONT GET!" name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src=" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>"> name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src=" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="350"> Quote Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/42874-make-drummers-everywhere-have-bad-sounding-snares/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Rambo Posted February 21, 2009 Report Share Posted February 21, 2009 The only to way to get a true early 50's snare sound is to kill your family.

Braintree Posted February 21, 2009 Report Share Posted February 21, 2009 I've been doing it like that for years. It actually makes your snare last longer, too.

Braintree Posted February 22, 2009 Report Share Posted February 22, 2009 Well, obviously I'll never get a good snare recording unless I use an incredibly obscure mic that no one has heard of and is super expensive.
