    In this video, I'll show you how to EQ a snare drum to clean up some excessive ring and create a little more SMACK and CRACK so it hits harder and sits better in the mix. If you'd like to learn more about how to mix drums, definitely check out my full Drum Mixing Masterclass linked above for more in-depth training on ABBDRUMS.COM. Thanks for watching!

    @mlhbrx96 5 лет назад +1

    So damn good! I'd love to see a vid of you playing this tasty groove too! How long did it take for you to really get a feel for searching in the right places to get that sound? And have you found a typical baseline from snare to snare? Or did you discover major differences with the depths/wood/metals etc?

    • @abbdrums
      @abbdrums  5 лет назад +2

      Hey Marc, this groove is actually Garstka playing. I wish I could groove like that haha. Those frequency ranges usually apply to most snares but there can definitely be some variability there depending on the tuning, shell, head, etc... every snare is a little bit different but in general, these are good areas to target with EQ.

      I don't think you can pull all the ring out with an EQ. Either muffle the drum during recording or use something like a gate or sample if it has to be done in the mix. But likely you don't want to get rid of all the ring, because it might make a very dead and boring sound. You have to consider how it fits with the rest of your mix as well. This is just controlling the amount and presence of ring with the EQ.
