  • In this episode I discuss How To Pick The Right Snare For Your Recording. I will show you the difference between snare size, type (14x5 vs. Piccolo), wood vs. metal and tuning. I discuss how to tune your piccolo to sound like a bigger snare by not choking it with a high tuning. You never want to choke a snare drum because it loses all its low end and you can't EQ that back in if it's not there to begin with.

      Aimee Nolte Music he's just SO great. You too, but obv these types of videos are a different direction. I use your videos more as like, where the star reader will tell me to steer my musical journey boat, and others are the engine. I'm not quite learned enough to utilize your videos the way I assume they're intended, but I still find great value in them also.

    Dude. Thanks. Nobody ever wants to give a clear answer on snare drums, idk why everybody is making it sound so ambiguous and/or complicated. It's clearly simple when you have the side by side. Size/depth has way more impact on sound than I thought.

    Really like these videos. I've learned a bunch of useful new tricks even after having played professionally for decades. Thanks Rick! One suggestion: the term "snare length" is a little confusing when referring to snare tension. I see that "length" in this context refers to how long the snares are allowed to resonate and rattle, but someone out there is going to watch this and wonder whether their snare wires cover enough length across the bottom of their drum. Terms like "loose tension" (better for slower tempos/ballads) and "tight tension" (better for faster tempos and articulation) would be better. Thanks for all the insights, Rick!

    Thanks for all your videos Rick, more information than I can begin to digest, but I'll get there eventually. Constructive feedback - when demoing snares could you perhaps play spaced out half or whole notes so we can hear the attack/decay/sustain characteristics before the next hit? The "whack whack whack whack" kinda reminds me of when I first gave drumsticks to my kids ;) But other than that super useful tips and insight, which is appreciated muchly!

    Great video, I’ve been recording in all types of bands with all types of snares for over 30 years. I was convinced by one producer to replace my single ply Slingerland Krupa with his generic guitar center pearl maple snare for a session when I was hired to record with a wanna be Gin Blossoms band in the 90’s. He was right, it sounded like every other wannabe band in the 90’s. My advice, learn your craft, find your sound and stick with it. My best recordings are with that snare by producers who knew how to capture it. Look at some old 70’s reggae and funk clips, those snares are old and beat and the heads are black with patina, yet it fits perfectly with the groove.

    I wish I had seen this video before going into a recording session for an EP. I used a 13 inch Mapex piccolo, metal snare. The dude who later mixed the EP said he replaced the snare sound on every song with a snare sample. His reason was that my snare sounded too thin and lacked body. I heard the songs with my original sound, well... he was right. He also mentioned Andy Wallace uses this technique, how can I argue with that!?

    • @slopsicle

    • @krasiomilchev160
      @krasiomilchev160 3 года назад +1

      @@slopsicle Maybe, but it definitely lacked body as there were no lows to enhance with EQ. I cannot be certain, but saturation might have made it sound even thinner. It was a rock EP, so a saturated, trashy snare wouldn't have sounded good with the rest of the music. I realize that now, but then I just wanted "my" sound.

    Here’s how I pick my snare: “oh, hey! There’s a snare here. Guess I’m using this!” 😂 Honestly though I’ve got a brass Pearl Piccolo and the thing freaking rocks. Like you said you can tune them down to get a regular snare sound (I usually do this TBH) or crank them for that classic piccolo sound. I’ve always planned on buying a deeper snare to supplement but just never felt a dying need.

  • @Twotontessie
    @Twotontessie 4 года назад +1

    I would disagree with the statement “Piccolos are higher in pitch.” Pitch is affected by diameter. The deeper snares just move more air. Gives the illusion of a deeper pitch. It’s not - it’s just “more” sound.

    I really like most of your instructions but your comparisons are all over the map. If you were to use the same snare drum with different heads or different hoops or different snares that would be a better comparison to show the difference in sound.
