Floor tom ringing after snare hit.
Also my snare has a more of marching band sound when i hit it i want it to have less of the crackling sound more like linkin park s drummer so any suggestions.
Only the front head is on the kick.
And they buzz horribly with my toms but im not too worried about that.
I have heard the tape method but how exactly do you do it and were do you put the tape.
You can loosen it a bit but that would effect the sound of your snare when hitting it you can barely hear it if you re playing it though so just leave it.
I have the toms tuned to where i like open and resonant and the kick is a very tight punch.
I have a ridiculous snare ring after i hit it the snare are centered on the reso head they arent wore out.
Drop 5 or 6 cotton balls in a 16 or larger floor tom with droning issues and your set.
On my mounted toms and floor tom i have this horrible long lasting over ring and i know some drummers like it but i dont how do you make it stop.
I bought an 18 floor tom duration.
The tom on it s own snare stand might offset the tom a little more from the kik but usually sounds best to me.
Make sure that the toms and snare are sufficiently damped before you start recording.
This is something i got from my gigs and live performances and i want to share as most of the tuning questions are directed to how to get rid of the ringy sound in a snare drum.
Ok i have a typical setup with two rack toms and a floor tom rack toms are mounted on the kick.
First all snare drums are supposed to ring a very muffled snare with no ring sounds to the audience like a piece of wood being hit no life no tone no projection.
When you hit your tom the snare wires will sound if they are too close or touching the snare drum.
Every kick hit is complimented by an undercurrent of floor tom ring.
Real time snare side.
Remove the ringing from a drum tom quickly if you are at a show and getting ready to go on stage.
When i hit the kick snare the two rack toms ring resonate through the overheads to the point of driving me nuts.
I did my best to cure the problem at source but now some is on the recording.
Listen to the beginning of weezer s el scorcho for some really tasty floor tom ring.
I need some help please.
What s the best way to get rid of tom ring a ringing noise after the tom is hit picked up by the tom mics on a recording of a drum kit.
