Drum Tuning - The Snare Drum; part 1

Drum Tuning - How To Tune Snare Drum * This in-depth tutorial article written by Gregory A Hill was a little too long for our blog, therefore I've split it into a 2-part article. Watch for the 2nd portion of this to appear on Feb 3rd . Ahh yes... the snare drum. The most heavily played drum throughout the kit. The snare drum is the center piece, and it can very easily define a drummers style. From a deep thud to a tight snap; maple, birch, bronze, steel, and everywhere in between; the overall sound of this instrument is as varied as ice cream flavours and can be just as sweet if tuned correctly. This tutorial assumes you are putting new drum heads on your snare. If you're using older heads and want to follow the tutorial, just evenly loosen the tension rods on both sides of the drum and remove the rods, hoops, and heads to start anew. Ok - so first, let's start with the "do's and don'ts". Do :  Find the head suited for your style of playing

quote of the day

Quote of the Day © BrummetMedia.ca “Keep in mind, hurting people will often hurt other people as a result of their own pain.  If somebody is rude and inconsiderate, you can almost be certain that they have some unresolved issues inside.  They have some major problems, anger, resentment, or some heartache they are trying to cope with or overcome.  The last thing they need is for you to make matters worse by responding angrily.”  ~ Joel Osteen ~~ Visit the Brummet's @:  http://BrummetMedia.ca ~~
