Hey guys, love the videos. Full time TH-camr here, and drummer, Just a tip I think it would be more interesting as a piece of content if you did your edits side-by-side per drum rather than playing several different Tom sounds of one head and then changing the entire drum set and doing all of those sounds. I think it would just be easier if you hit one Tom and crescendo and decrescendo and then changed heads in your edit so I could hear that same Tom with a different head before moving onto the next drum. By the time you switch sets I’ve already forgotten what the other set sounded like. It’s essentially the same thing you guys are already doing but the order of your edits make it a little difficult to understand the difference in sound and I’ve watched several of your drum head/shell videos. Each time I keep saying to myself “guys stop playing tons of stuff on one set then changing sets, give me one Tom, and flip back and forth between heads, then move on to the snare, bass, etc and do the comparison” - Just a suggestion, I think you guys are going places with your channel, keep up the great work 👌
I prefer the Evans! The 10inch tom just sounds so much smoother to me… now that 12 inch Remo smackin tho! But altogether more controlled sound with Evans to my ear. Remo has more overtones but with a drum dot def smackin.
There is a very clear difference between these two lines of drum heads. I have always found the Evans a bit muted or "plastic" sounding. The Remo is more open, natural and alive. However, I believe that the Evans are more consistent from head to head. I get more "dead' heads from Remo than any other company.
Great video, appreciate your efforts, my Yamaha Absolute Beech response best with G1 heads and thinker heads on the floor toms, while on my other kit I have ambassador and emperor , all coated heads, I used to be a big fan of the Remo on my snare drums but my best sound for the snare drums is the Evans 300 and Evans Genera HD, my piccolo snare top head is Genera Dry with the holes. Love the EMAD2 Clear and EQ3 or EQ4 hazy, front head either the Black look or Evans 56 calf skin. Also noting Remo Heads the same on the bottom for the Rezo head and The Evens I'm using the Evans Rezo 7 with the G1's again this is with the Yamaha Absolute Beech Kit. Presently trying a Evans G1 on my vintage Ludwig snare 14x5.5 (1970), this actually works very well, nice and sharp, snare react well, hold its tuning, one moon gel on it, These are all coated heads. Trial and error, you must find the drum head that works best with your drum kit, you are hoping to find the head that tunes well and make the drum come alive which makes you want to play it. Cheers and have an awesome drumming day. Bruce from Canada
Great vid chaps,Thank you,Im a drummer in essex england,Remo emps more open,but you can allways stick a tad of mj on edge,i use remo emps,amb bottom,tad of mj half a mj cut them in half,remo emps more choice of sound,i think the ec2 last a tad longer if you a megga hitter,Happy drumming to all,Iv just started to do a few gigs,With some real good friends,KEEP MUSIC LIVE..
After testing hundreds ( bought them ) of drum heads & tuninig methods this what i observed > 1) Remos mylar is different from Evans / Aquarian / Premier / Attack / etc Remo has the strongest mylar ( try & tune a 6" bongo with Remo then others to reference sound quality ) only Remo can do it with its exceptional strength without breaking ! 2) Remo Ambassador coated is the best for snare batter / no collar is best for snare side ( sound quality / pop / feel / crisp snarewire ) 3) for toms Evans Clear G2 batters are louder for pitch bend tuning than Remo Emperor Coated 4) however the best sound when tuned optimally still goes to Remo Clear Emperor 5) For bass drum batter Evans EMAD Onyx sounds best Most drummers dont know how to tune their drums to get the best sound quality out of their drumkit ( perpetual struggle ) If you observed carefully most people are tuning them wrongly ( tensioning then listen instead of listening while tensioning each lug to obtain the best sound / eveness ) ❌Pressing the drumhead in pretuning actually destroys the drum head ( distort the mylar evenness making them into used heads ) ACR research into drum tuning enables one to Play & Sound Better with less Effort !
Totally agree. Like you, i've always thought that evans heads tend to sound more plastic, with a very sharp attack instead of a focused tone. Nevertheless i do love evans reso heads, found them to give me the right tone for my tom toms in combination with a clear emperor on top. Also, i totally agree on the fact that pushing the head on pre tunning does affect the head and, not only gives it the sound of a used head but also decreases its life. I've stoped doing that over a decade now and i found my heads last longer and with great tone. Yes, you do have to be retuning them during a couple of days but the results are amazing.
You're incorrect about them being different mylar. Mylar is a patented material only available through DuPont. The difference is in the collar and the fastening of the film to the collar. Some use a pressed-on collar and others use a glue-on. The raw mylar film is the same material. Anything used to join the plies or any substance that's placed in between them would differ from one company to the next.
Is there a difference between the Emad and the Emad Onyx?? On the website the specs are the same. I use the EMAD clear, myself. Never tried the Onyx -Actually, never knew it was even a thing until now!! Also -What is "pitch bend tuning" and ACR??
Awesome vids guys. Thanks a lot for doing this. Can definitely hear the difference. I will stick with Emperors but those G2s will have me thinking twice about Emperors now hey.
I actually just put remos emporor clears on my kit going from evans uv2s and I am very happy with that move! I also went from evans emad2 to the remo powerstroke 3 for my bass drum. Between all these moves my kit feels like it became more alive. More open, and even louder. I actually also found tuning them to be alot easier. The only head I'm struggling with is the snare head but I will get that straight. But I have no hate for the evans, and I been a evans, promark, daddarrio guy for years. But trying out these remos I am more than surprised and happy! I never really cared for remos in the past so I am happy I went out of my comfort zone and tried the remos again.
@@matthewgonano636 I honestly haven't even thought about changing them out ever since I did the initial change to remos. They are louder, more open, they punch, and just sound killer!!
Nice comparison video, thanks for posting! I’ve gone back and forth between Remo and Evans for years. There are some pros and cons to both but I see the value of both companies: Remo can have more overtones but sound more live and have more attack, Evans can be a little more boxy but have great warmth/low end. I think one important thing I’ve learned more recently is understanding your own drums and what kind of heads work best for the type of shells you have. I used to have a Tama Starclassic Performer, and it was great with Evans G2’s but when I switched to Remo, the drums sounded thinner. I’m finding with my DW kit, they have a little more personality with Remo.
Remo does a lot better of a job at allowing you to hear the natural sound of the kit with a bit extra where as Evans (I find at least) messes around with the normal tones, resonance and sustain
Thanks a lot, that's exactly what I was looking for! I keep doing blind comparisons to see if my taste in sound has changed. After playing your video only listening, not watching, I found out I still like Remo better than Evans (at least these two series).
Remos have more sustain because the flat part of the head is floating. They actually market it as a plus that they don't sit flag like Evans and Aquarian. They say it's acts like a trampoline. It's a sound for sure, but personally I actually don't like that much attack and sustain. To each their own
Opposite for me. I always use coated snare batters so I can use brushes, and Remo's coating doesn't last long enough, despite being noticeably coarser out of the box. Remo seems to sing a bit more on toms compared to Evans. All my resos are Remo as well. And I prefer EMAD over PS3. I have coated Ambassadors on my less-used snares though.
I love Remo and Evans they both produce good sounds but I must admit that one of the advantages that Evans has over Remo is that they don’t have as much of taht ringing sound Remo tend to have a lot of that ringing sound so really have to use gels,plastic rings, or gaffer tape to get rid of it
I keep going back to Remo every time. I recently tried Aquarian again. They sounded great but just don't have the dynamic range. Very "quiet" heads. Evans and Remo seem similar but the Remo has that certain "something" that I've gotten used to over the years. I did use Evans in the 90's but when D'Addario bought them in 1995 I switched back to Remo.
You can make any Remo head sound like an Evans head if you dampen it. IMO you should buy Evans if you want the convenience of the head being less "live" to begin with, as long as you always want it to sound like that.
There is a difference between Remo and Evans heads and it’s mainly due to the films each company uses. Remo heads have more tone when not mounted and that translates to the main difference that’s heard on the kit. The word on the street is that the film that’s supplied to Remo by DuPont isn’t available to any other customers.
Joe Rico, I believe you are right. For anyone who doesn't believe that just put the heads next to each other. You can actually see with your eyes that the films are different.
@tonymilone5458 The other day Iwas using Titebond III glue and pulled the dried plug under the cap. I checked the ring of dried glue the next day and while it was more firm it still had flexibility. 2 days later it was rock hard but could still be stretched out. Evans heads go DEAD from one day to the next. Remo heads do not. My theory is there's a flex agent that's used in the Dupont made mylar films that give Remo their unique characteristics. Also Remo films have more surface texture even when they FEEL smooth.
Remo says that with the Emps they stack the plies in a way that causes them to resonate together. Perhaps the G2's plies counter each other slightly, causing a thuddier attack and significantly shorter sustain
Finally got some G2s coated and I LOVE them. I was always told don’t go coated Tom’s… I’m glad I did. Or it just pairs well with birch shells. Thinking of changing my reso heads any suggestions?
JMHO - if tuning both brands at the "mid/medium" tension, they sound the same. But if you prefer a higher pitch, the G2s sound better at the mid-high to high tension (the Remos sound choked to me). Conversely, if you want a lower pitch for that classic rock sound, the Emperors excel at that point (the Evans are flat sounding to me when tuned low)
The big difference is the Evans 360° technology. More contact between the head and shell equals more control, less sustain and easier tuning. If you want the Remo’s to do that, you have to one, either seat them first and crank them down and let them stretch overnight, two, buy Mapex drums that have the Soniclear bearing edges so that any head you use sits nice and flat on the bearing edge!
It's the film. Although the films may have the same specs - the two companies are starting out with different mylar. Same specs, but a different recipe. It's the same thing when you compare an Ebony head to a Clear head. They can both have the same thickness and weight, but somehow they sound different from each other. Remo has the superior film in my opinion. It has more tone that the Evans film. The Evans film usually sounds plasticky to me (although the G2's sounded great on the floor tom for some reason).
The clear 2 ply heads are exactly identical down to the raw materials used. They're both 2 plies of the exact same thickness mylar film. If they didn't tune these drums with a drum dial to the exact same tension then this whole video is moot anyway. The real difference between Remo and Evans heads is the coating they use on their coated heads. Evans coating is more durable but Remo's coated heads have tons more tone and resonance. Evans coated have a very sharp, plastic-y attack note.
As you've said, Remos less attack but longer sustain and more tone.Evans,same characteristics over all, but less sustain much more attack and the tone is there but much quieter is how I hear it.I'd use the Evans on an extreme metal album that you need less sustain and more attack and the Remo on let's say a classic rock album that you have much more space to let them ring.The other question is!!!Which can last longer?????
That’s because the remo heads looked brand new, compared to the evans heads that clearly have been used for quite a while. As drumheads get worn overtime they will eventually lose more and more sustain. That’s common sense guys lol. That being said, if you get both brand new emperors and brand new g2. They will sound exactly the same.

Years ago, i tried G2s and found them to be, as my bass player put it, "sacky" sounding. Went back to Emperors and the sound was just there.

The Emperors seem to have a more defined tone while keeping overtones under control. Impressive. I made the right choice...for me.
Prefer the sound of the Remo Emperors, though the difference isn’t huge. A little more attack and not as much “boing” as the Evans.
There is a very clear difference between these two lines of drum heads.
I have always found the Evans a bit muted or "plastic" sounding. The Remo is more open, natural and alive.
However, I believe that the Evans are more consistent from head to head. I get more "dead' heads from Remo than any other company.

3) for toms Evans Clear G2 batters are louder for pitch bend tuning than Remo Emperor Coated
4) however the best sound when tuned optimally still goes to Remo Clear Emperor
5) For bass drum batter Evans EMAD Onyx sounds best
Most drummers dont know how to tune their drums to get the best sound quality out of their drumkit ( perpetual struggle )
If you observed carefully most people are tuning them wrongly ( tensioning then listen instead of listening while tensioning each lug to obtain the best sound / eveness )
❌Pressing the drumhead in pretuning actually destroys the drum head ( distort the mylar evenness making them into used heads )

Same with me. And Evans for bass drum too, they tune up quite different.

I love Emporer, sounds dark and warm. Great for heavy music!
Thank you, I will try G2's on my Yam oak custom
Great kits, love an Oak Custom 🙂👌
I have a strange feeling when both options really like and are also demonstrated in the most delicious Starclassic cuisine!
Remo says that with the Emps they stack the plies in a way that causes them to resonate together. Perhaps the G2's plies counter each other slightly, causing a thuddier attack and significantly shorter sustain
Evans!!
Your content is great!
Remo are better
Finally got some G2s coated and I LOVE them. I was always told don’t go coated Tom’s… I’m glad I did. Or it just pairs well with birch shells. Thinking of changing my reso heads any suggestions?
can I ask why no go on coated toms? (newer drummer over here)

question - what kind of resonator heads are used in this demo?
G1 Clears for reso heads 🙂
You can't un-dampen G2's though.
Ran G2 clear, then coated. My next experience will either be clear ambassadors or Emperors. Decisions!
Check out our Ambassador Vs Emperor Clear video to help you make the right decision for you 😁
Are the evans used or brand new? Maybe that has something to do with it? They're a little bit worn in?
We'd used them for our previous G2 vs. EC2 video, they were still good as new 🙂
It's the film.
Although the films may have the same specs - the two companies are starting out with different mylar.

I love Evans, I play Evans, but I'm here just to watch that bearded dude - comedy-ready character ))
I enjoy the remo emperors, coated. Remo has the lowest stick noise. More of the full shell sound, Ludwig Classic Maple shells.
They both good. Just buy two kits and use both sets of heads. Easy to find cheap kits used
Remo is way better. Soundwise and feelingwise
Remo uses their mylar formula that no one else can use.
That’s because the remo heads looked brand new, compared to the evans heads that clearly have been used for quite a while. As drumheads get worn overtime they will eventually lose more and more sustain. That’s common sense guys lol. That being said, if you get both brand new emperors and brand new g2. They will sound exactly the same.
Depends how hard you hit the drums. Dave Weckl explained that he don't change drum heads often just re-tuning them.
The Evans G2's sounded a little more musical to me which surprised me.
When did Hawkeye started testing out drum skins
😂😂😂
The G2s sound like the Emperors after a year of heavy beating...
Emperors but very close
Evans all the way 😃
Remo for me
Evans sounded much better I think
G2 all day long!
The Evans on the floor tom sounded absolutely dead. I thought the Remos were the most consistent sounding from one drum to the next
I like the Evans heads, because they have less sustain than the Remo heads.
Sustain just means more tunability.
Evans sound like flat shit
Remo
Prefer the Evans
To me the Emperors had more tone.
G2s coated over g1 clears
Just installed this combo on my PDP Concept Maple kit. It sounds awesome.
G2 all day
REMO
REMO for the win ..Evans always have a plasticky attack, especially on their clear heads ..
remo is way better
Huge difference between remo and evans.... Get your ears checked. REMO always has more tone.....
Tuning is not bad, drumheads are just too controlled and not lively at all.
Change drum heads.
I can't hear a difference.
remo is fatter. evans is more focused
Emperors are the best.
Evans heads are for guys who can't tune a drum.
