Which is the best snare you have ever recorded?
I record the worst snares ever, then I use some samples (allround, Deathblast and Fat Ring), way easier than spend weeks trying to find the perfect spot! 😂😂🤣🤣
I have the Black Beauty 14x8. Seems everyone in metal production goes with the 6.5, wondering if you have used the 8”?
So far TBH I like the Aluminum Supraphonic 14x6.5 more. It has a lot more crack and sounds woodier if that makes sense.
Best snare ever recorded for ``metal`` ; Tama Bell Brass... ( vintage one...) AMAZING ! But today we can found so many good snare for not very that expensive ... One guy not very ``famous``... in drummer world : Neil Peart... Having one of the coolest Snare Drum Collection on Earth and he already says : his favorite Snare Drum was one he have buy in a Pawn shop ... at 70$ ... Yeah quality is not always just about price and brand...
Tama Bell Brass & Ludwig Bronze/Aluminum/Black Beauty ❤
Haha! Fair enough
Dude is really generating enormous value for the community. Thank you Kohle!
Great to hear that! 🤘❤️
Yes! Kristian is the man!
You're the man!@@KohleAudioKult
The N&C snare sounds awesome!
Great video! My favourite snare is definitely the Ludwig Supraphonic, closely followed by a Black Beauty and of course the Tama Bell Brass, which is HUGE!
Don't forget about the Ludwig hammered bronze, it's a sleeper! ...that's on more tracks than your aware of.
I use a hand-hammered supra and it has just the most beautiful high end. Barely need to add anything compared to my old maple.
Marvellous! Thanks for sharing@@camdendebruin6667
Marvellous! Thanks for sharing!@@klauth_Yksyn Let me know what songs!
Warren, you should check out the Gretsch Solid snares, the aluminium, bell brass and steel are the ones that are very close to the Tama Bell Brass. There is a video on RUclips comparing it to the original and they can compete easily
Man this is a great video!!!!! So much info!!!! I love that Noonan! But they are all great snares
Cool video! Thanx for the samples! Priceless!!! 🥁🥁🥁👌
You’re welcome! 🤘❤️
thank you! Highly appreciated.
Very Cool!!! thank you for this!!!!!🤘🤘🤘
Thanks you !! Very nice ...
Sounds veeery good. Thanks for the snare pack!
And super ultra mega thanks for the extra Brady oneshots. An extra sample or two (a day) keeps the machine gun effect away.
...or something like that, hehe.
Yeah! I thought giving you three of them makes it quite a bit more usable. Enjoy!
That Black Beauty is a must have, God damn it!!!
Great video and nice to see that you liked the Brady best! I have 13 Brady snares and 2 kits...They really do sound great :)
I’m impressed!
Happy to see real drums 👍 Love the Black Beauty. have 6 of them in my collection!
Six? 😮
@@KohleAudioKult all different sizes.
I meant: You really got six BBs? Just as nerdy as Ed from Rosewood Music.
I have about 85 hi end snares that I review in depth on my channel... lots of good free info!@@KohleAudioKult
I added the Brady samples to the Total Thrash mix exercise, to see what would happen. It worked very well with a bit of envelope shaper. That was a nice experience, thanks for your advices, tips & tricks!!
That N&C sounds almost perfect. It between that and the Beauty for me.
The Noonan was kind of like the perfect balance between the DW and the Ludwig. I really liked the way it sounded.
F**k man, i need more Snares! 🤩🥁🙈 I’m loving the cooper one!
We all need more Snares! 😋
My 1969 pearl mij 10 lug steel snare. Very similar to that Brady in sound. A steel version of Stuart Copeland's old cob.
That copper one was my favorite!
Love the Bradey!! Was instantely thinking of Limp Bizkit and then you said that it reminds you of them 😁 It is just a really distinct sound that I allways wanted to achieve within my drum plugins like ezdrummer or superior drummer. Thanks for the ohne shot. I will definitely try it out! Grüße aus Heidelberg :)!
Sind „nur“ One Shot Samples. Aber zum zumischen bestens geeignet. Gerade bei diesem „Riiiiing“.
Gruß!
Ja genau, das wollte ich mal versuchen :)
Very interesting , I have a Mapex Maple Black Widow 13x5.5 that sound very similar to the Brady !
I have a massive 14"x8" Noble & Cooley copper snare that sounds amazing.
Just don’t try to lift it 😜
It's between the copper and black beauty for me!
Wow, that is the most clearly I have ever been able to hear the pre-ringing from linear phase EQ, thanks for demonstrating that!
You’re welcome! I did an entire video about that:
ruclips.net/video/qzexTkeU-ok/видео.htmlsi=6FiZgkqw_8e01ubN
Custom Sonor 8-lug 14x5.5 CLTF with widened (by me) snare beds and two sets of strainers much like a Weckl signature drum.
I have the BB in 5,5 and 6,5 that I recorded with Jens. I also recorded with the famous snare 2 in Krimh drums.
That sounded fantastic but was a little fragile for my hitting but could be perfect for a drummer with lighter sticks. I recorded a couple of album with Uli Kusch from Helloween in my studio where he used my snare but it sounded as another snare compared to when I played it. On one album he wanted a classic 80 clear pinstripe and again, totally new snare! :) My point is (if I even have one) is i think its at least as much to the sound who and how he hits and what sticks he use. But still with all these parameters I LOVE my BB 6,5!
I’m not fabulous with the Khrim drums yet. I agree that BBs are a safe bet sonically, I’m just shocked by the bad quality of the Ludwig hardware each time I use one. Also on this session where it got out of tune constantly.
About 6 years ago I got to go through DW drums factory for a tour. They had a DW Collector's Series Concrete Snare in QC. The Quality Control guy played it, and it sounded really good. I like them tuned a little higher and this one was and it had great snap and was loud.
With concrete you mean cement? 😮
I did a recent review on the concrete 14x6.5
@@klauth_Yksyn Nice. I will have to check it out.
@@KohleAudioKult yeah i believe so.
Yes!! Yes! Yes!!! There is no such thing as “enough snare”!
I personally enjoy little higher tuned snares that has nice ring to them because they usually have more character. I also think that at certain point some modern productions made snare sound so thick and overprosessed that one couldn't really tell bass drum apart from snare if there weren't that shizzle from the snares. :D In this comparison I liked the Brady most and DW was close second just because both had that nice crack, pleasant sustain and more natural sound in a way if that makes any sense.
Good point about Snares sounding like Kicks 🤔.
You should have fun with the Brady samples then!
@@KohleAudioKult Back in the day Lamb Of God had quite (/very) high tuned and nasty sounding snares that I liked in the context of the music. I'd probably download the samples you made just to have them in the future.:D
LoG is a good example for a great sounding high snare @@SecretMetalFromAbyss
@@KohleAudioKult Indeed sir, indeed.:D Had to check how their newer stuff sounds and the newest album sounded pretty much like every metal album today, the industry standard like one would call that. :D
I cover tuning snares on my channel...if that interests you?
I'm personally definitely more into the limp bizkit/lamb of god "pan" snare sounds. Not really tinny or ringy, but you get the mid/high "plonk" sound with a low end punch.
Good description!
After the one shot processing IMO it sounds like a snare from a classic Brendan O'Brien production from 90's hard rock... I mean this very much as a complement 🤘
Of course that's a compliment!
but even without the treatment, it's just a very 90s / 2000s sounding snare drum!
Lo afinan alto porque es más fácil tocar con un parche apretado que con uno más suelto, además la variación de volumen los hace pensar que alto suena mejor, pero diría que lo más relevante es que de esa manera el baterista se esfuerza menos
I recommend that you guys get a Dw purpleheart snare, as it has everything you need as far as recording goes.
Wooden, right?
@@KohleAudioKult, Yes
Thank you for the video! What drumheads were used in this recording? Were they the same on each snare?
There was to time for that. But you can see the heads in the video around 1:38
@@KohleAudioKult thank you.
Can we just get a Cytotoxin/Stocki drum pluggin soon? I just need the St. Anger Cytotoxin snare sounds all over my bedroom jams.
Haha! At least I have thought about doing a video about that one.
Thanx so much for the samples!! Are those compatible with Slate trigger?
Those are WAV files. But sure, you can load them into Trigger.
@@KohleAudioKult thanx
By the way... if you want try some new things... *** EBNOR PERCUSSION... *** a Handmade drums ( and Snare...) . AMAZING drums from Quebec Canada... Quality of that is UNMATCHED.
Love your stuff, and use your snare samples from time to time, but what I really need is some side stick samples. Do you have any, or know some place to point me to? I do 80s rock music!
Sidestick samples? I have never recorded any because that technique is hardly used for the noisy music that I record. I’ll do it next time!
@@KohleAudioKult thought that 😄 but yes, I imagine a lot would be interested, there are always a lot of places to find snares and kick, but good side sticks are hard to come by!
Love it. I notice muting the shit out of the snare has become trendy. I prefer your approach, it shows that muting doesn't get you a big and meaty sounding snare in real studio environments. Don't choke the snare folks. Learn to tune and get a nice sounding ring instead
as long as the st anger snare isn't in there 😂
Haha! I'm sure Ed has that one too!
That place would give me worst case of Option Paralysis in human history
Haha! True!
So either this studio does not own any of the famed Sonor Signature Shells (HLD 590 bronze, the Ferromanganese Steele 14x8 or the 14x8 Bubinga shell in either heavy or light) or they do own one of these but decided to not bring them out for this test....Either way, SACRILEGE !
Fun video and nice comparison with nice snares nonetheless.
Sorry for the lack of Sonors.
There's just too much sexy stuf out there, you know!
Bell Brass, Free Floating....lots of other legendary Snares.
Wait there's a Noonan drum company?
There you go! ;)
@@KohleAudioKult Did some further looking into that company, can't believe they're so under the radar. They made a signature 7x12 purpleheart with Ash Soan! Glad I found this, and thanks for continuing to put out incredible content Kohle (just found this channel, got a lot of catching up to do.)
Snare folder on drive is EMPTY!! Please fix.
I just informed Audient about this. I hope it will be fixed asap! So sorry for this!
Should be fixed now! Please try again!
Thanks! 🤘😎🤘
Whenever I see videos about snares, it always saddens me how nobody seems to want to make a video or test Pearl's free floating snares. It's always the same Ludwig, Dunett or some obscure small company. Gene Hoglan is one of the few drummers I know which uses them.
There’s a free floater in pretty much all of my drum videos. Those are my go-to snares!
This includes even a sample:
ruclips.net/video/SRHe3tiT7pQ/видео.htmlsi=elpY-ie2217J-kMR
hmm Chris, ich glaube ich höre immer noch preringing.. zumindest an den single sample hits..
War am Ende einfach der normale Modus. Da sollte nix mehr ringen 🤘
Give me Bell Brass or give me DEATH!
Good call!
Kohleham Lincoln?? is that you? lol
😎
it is quiet cold in your studio
Yeah! Freezing. Too many black metal productions! 😎😜
250 hrz on top...but on Bottom?
Rather high! Just crank it. That usually works.
Snares no longer in the folder.
Same prob here!
@@eazyhiro9689 Really? How is that possible. Let me check.
Should be fixed now! Please try again!

Nope, still not there @@KohleAudioKult
