Jupiter low tuning for the tone, S.C. low tuning also sounds pretty good. Tha Dynasonic was my least favourite sounding but I like it for the hassle free snare wires. Soooo, all three?
I still don’t know how to change the door handles on my Toyota Tacoma, but congrats David, I watched your video. TH-cam suggestions for the win...again...
@@patrickstaak501 It also has a really thick shell compared to most metal drums. I've experimented with hoops on mine and it retains that same character regardless of what hoops are on it. It rings a bit more and sounds more open with triple flanged hoops but it retains that fat -somewhere between brass and wood- pop regardless of hoops. Its tone is unique to the drum in my experience.... and most of that is down the shell.
Tama just makes the best hardware, so naturally their ability to make metal snares is second to none. I got the hand hammered vintage snare and its so fuking sweet
All three sounded cool in their own way. Liked the rogers best as it sounded really good in all tunings as you said, and just so well balanced. The Tama felt very snappy and had a bit more modern sound to it. The Pearl had some crazy low end and felt way to boomy tuned down. But if you wanted a fat snare tuned high the pearl is a real winner!
Darn right! I'd put my 1979 Rogers X-P8 USA maple kit up against just about anything made today. BTW, I own two of the snares in the vid, Heh heh heh.......Have to find one of those Pearl's next time I allow myself a present!!
I would choose the"Snare if Mysterious Providence." As Stewart Copeland would quote about his diecast battered, Pearl Jupiter. Yes, all Police recordings featured one snare drum; a Pearl Jupiter with a diecast batter side rim and a triple flange snare side rim. Hence the configuration of the signature Tama.
I think the main difference is the die cast hoop. If you swap out the batter hoop on that Tama I don’t think the sound would differ much from the other two.
Yeah I tend to dislike the die cast hoops on all Tama snares cause they sound so choked. It’s like there’s a high and low pass on the drum that’s not letting it breathe
Well I liked the Rogers the best out of those three, but I love my Ludwig Black Beauty even more. Thanks for putting in the effort to make the video, I know that takes a lot of time!
S.C. signature is a BEAST. Sounded excellent in all tunings. 2nd is Pearl Jupiter, which the S.C. signature is based on, weirdly enough. Just have a clean record worthy sound.
Love the video for me the Rogers, I have a Slingerland sound king and I think it’s brilliant, if you have not already tried one, this would be a great choice
Not just because I've owned a Dynasonic (6.5x14) for about 45 years but I feel it is really hard to beat for precise articulation to good solid back beat.
Can I add that I really love the way your room came out so far? It’s so organized and neat. Hell, it even looks bigger (but that might be the lens you’re using.) keep up the awesome content! (PS. I see you doing your thang on other channels and I dig that too haha. Keep the collars coming as well!)
They all sounded great David.I don't use a metal snare anymore but when I did I used a pearl brass 6_1/2x14 free floater.should of never got rid of that one. My favorite here is the Rogers tunned hi.Beautiful sound.Thanks for the video.!!!
Great video. I prefer the SC145 at the high and mid tuning. I couldn’t pick between the Tama and Roger’s at the low tuning. I was surprised I actually didn’t like the Pearl as I thought I preferred a dryer sound.
Watched this video and suddenly ran over to my closet dusted off an old ten lug pearl jupiter(Gladstone throw off) and found a magnet after some looking and lo and behold I got one of those. And yes it is LOUD at any tuning. Totally forgot about that drum until five minutes ago.
My first kit was Slingerland Weather King. Then an early 70's Roger's kit. Then I had a late 70's big R kit. After that came a few cheaper kits, and a really great set of Peavey RBS 1's. I would trade my house for the first three! What a dumb ass I was in my younger years!!
Liked them all. I have the Tama and it's literally ear piercing. It cuts through. I feel like I have to be more precise when playing it because it's less forgiving, not much decay. I feel ghost notes are harder because it's so sensitive.
That's very groovy playing, Dave! High tuning - ++++++++ for both Rogers and Tama. Medium tuning - Rogers didn't sound so good, Tama sounded godly to me. Low tuning - Rogers sounded excellent and explosive, while Tama had some weird overtones, so +1 for Rogers. Pearl Jupiter, on the other hand, sounded very strange in all three examples.
Ah, the irony with the Stewart Copeland Tama Signature Snare, as his #1 that was used on all of the Police records and helped give him his unique sound is actually a...Pearl. A mid 70s model. Heavily gated.
Why do so many people post this comment? First, we know this info already... but that's not the issue. The issue is that when it comes up, it's always worded in a patronizing tone, with a dash of pomposity & grandiosity mixed in... as if the person is educating all of us ignorant serfs and peasants. You're not, dude. ...and even if you were, I don't understand why so many drummers think this is such a rare piece of knowledge that every time they mention it, they act as if they've discovered the holy grail.
Timbales1979 you honestly think everyone knows? You come across as sounding all “high and mighty” with that comment. Maybe want to bring it down a notch.
Die Hard Rogers player but this particular grouping I noticed a high end ring just after the attack. The jupiter I also have in 6.5 ". Overall I like the Tama S.C, solid performer cross the board.
The Jupiter and the Tama are basically the same minus the die cast hoop on top. Copeland had Tama model his snare after the Pearl model which he had used for years.
Dyna-Sonic... I have an original COB 6 1/2 x 14 and a reissue wood WMP also 6 1/2.... great snares. Nice job on the compare... you could really hear a difference.
Little late but 200th ain't bad. Ever since I finally got a Black Beauty I can't see going back to wood for a main snare (I need like 12 snares, though). Brass really is just amazing sounding for everything! I would love to see how a ridiculously large brass snare (16x10 maybe?) would sound. Keep being awesome, David!
That Tama sounded good with all three tunings. Next, the Rogers had a nice low tuning. Finally, that Pearl sounded like garbage all around. Thanks for playing.
Funny how the Rogers Dynasonic drops in tuning while you are playing. I got this same thing happening on my vintage Pearl 14x8 brass. Especially on low tunings...
I have the Tama. Almost went for the Jupiter and put a die cast hoop to do the Copeland thing but thought it would be easier to just get the Tama. Thanks for doing this demo.
Howard Evans Hey a while back a got the Pearl and I think the technical term for it is it’s the model B4514-what you’re talking about. It has the Gladstone and the hole placement identical to Stewart’s.
As a beginner drummer, I have a couple of questions: about what head tension on the Drum Dial constitutes a low tuning? And do these chrome-over-brass snare drums accept a low tuning better than other ones? I absolutely loved the way all of these sounded in their low tuning (especially the Rodgers and Tama), and my 5.5" snares don't seem to get that awesome sound when I try and tune them low.
Loved the Rogers .. I have a 60's COB which is incredible. On the high tuning, the Tama had a bit of an off ring to it and the Pearl was good but a little flatter in energy than the Rogers. On the medium tuning the Tama and Pearl didn't sound very good from a ring perspective. On low tuning the Rogers was still a bit punchier but the Tama and Pearl got closer. The Pearl on low had a lovely decay. If I had to pick one .. it would be the Rogers.
I have a 6.5 by 14 rogers dynasonic.have had it for years.still my favorite snare i own.it will take your head off when tuned high and playing rim shots.and very sensitive played at low volumes.
The tama is easily the best. The Rogers has a nice warm series of overtones while the pearl sounds cold and closed off, with more confused overtones. I'm surprised people like this sound

Hello👋👋
Tama SC sig .. really stands out to me .. makes the others sound bad
I’d choose the Tama. The high tuning especially was my cup of tea.
Jupiter low tuning for the tone, S.C. low tuning also sounds pretty good. Tha Dynasonic was my least favourite sounding but I like it for the hassle free snare wires. Soooo, all three?
Pearl Medium Tuning sounds much better for me.
I still don’t know how to change the door handles on my Toyota Tacoma, but congrats David, I watched your video. TH-cam suggestions for the win...again...
Should of gotten a Ford 🤷🏻♀️
Yoyota needs more cowbell
@@rdavidr hahaha
The Tama sounded the best all around, to my ears. The tama tuned high is probably my favourite sound of the group.
The tama sounded that way because of the die cast hoop. Difference in sound between triple flange and die cast is HUGE.
I liked it the best as well. But my Dad's set that I have been playing for years is a Tama so maybe I am biased. 😆
@@patrickstaak501 It also has a really thick shell compared to most metal drums. I've experimented with hoops on mine and it retains that same character regardless of what hoops are on it. It rings a bit more and sounds more open with triple flanged hoops but it retains that fat -somewhere between brass and wood- pop regardless of hoops.
Its tone is unique to the drum in my experience.... and most of that is down the shell.
Tama just makes the best hardware, so naturally their ability to make metal snares is second to none. I got the hand hammered vintage snare and its so fuking sweet
Too dry/dull sounding for me.
I know the video is about the snare drums, but i just want to highlight how good the bassdrum sounds
All three sounded cool in their own way. Liked the rogers best as it sounded really good in all tunings as you said, and just so well balanced. The Tama felt very snappy and had a bit more modern sound to it. The Pearl had some crazy low end and felt way to boomy tuned down. But if you wanted a fat snare tuned high the pearl is a real winner!
Wow that Rogers was pretty much built for anything wasn't it?
its super versatile!
Rogers is so underrated and I'm not just talking about the snare here I'm talking about their complete line of drums...
Darn right! I'd put my 1979 Rogers X-P8 USA maple kit up against just about anything made today. BTW, I own two of the snares in the vid, Heh heh heh.......Have to find one of those Pearl's next time I allow myself a present!!
I am a Rogers Super fan! I have about 12 Rogers kits
I would choose the"Snare if Mysterious Providence."
As Stewart Copeland would quote about his diecast battered, Pearl Jupiter.
Yes, all Police recordings featured one snare drum; a Pearl Jupiter with a diecast batter side rim and a triple flange snare side rim.
Hence the configuration of the signature Tama.
Wow that's interesting! I know on the Sounds Like A Drum channel they done some comparisons with die cast and triple flanged which got me interested.
Problem is that his (Copeland) Pearl snare drum was not technically a "Jupiter". Was a Deluxe Custom. A.K.A "Gladstone" (Jupiter's sibling).
Yeah...
We know.
Thanks.
Copeland used a Custom model snare. Not a Jupiter. It's the one with a Gladstone strainer, not the Jupiter's parallel action strainer
Thought he also played a Tama Kingbeat
LORD that Pearl sounds good.
that rogers dynasonic sounds badass!!
Rogers all the way!
The Rogers is amazing in High & Low Tuning
Tama SC Medium Tuning (The rogers is pretty close)
Agreed
Forget the snares... that kick sounds great man!!
Thank you for presentation
Rogers is Best from my Point of View
VT
Love that Pearl...just has a bonk that the other 2 are missing
Bro! Idk what you changed, but this mix sounds GREAT!! Your others didn’t sound bad at all, but this is....better!
I felt the same. I think it's because he usually records in a more open part of the room.
Thanks for doing this brother. That Rogers has some serious thud!
Love em all, they all sound great, I'd rather go with the Rogers or Pearl because they have those cool snare mechanisms :))
dynosonic with the bridge is one of my go toos i love it
I think the main difference is the die cast hoop. If you swap out the batter hoop on that Tama I don’t think the sound would differ much from the other two.
Yeah I tend to dislike the die cast hoops on all Tama snares cause they sound so choked. It’s like there’s a high and low pass on the drum that’s not letting it breathe
would probably (and hopefully) sound almost identical to the Pearl since it's based on it lol
I’m late to this but I have a pearl Jupiter with a Tama die cast hoop, it sounds almost identical
The Tama is like .3mm thicker so it projects a little more
The tama sounded better than I thought it would. However, that Big-R dynasonic was the best. Thanks for the review.
Agree. Much better than the others, to my ears.
Well I liked the Rogers the best out of those three, but I love my Ludwig Black Beauty even more. Thanks for putting in the effort to make the video, I know that takes a lot of time!
I would use the Rodgers Dynasonic
Thanks for the throwback David!! I sold my Rogers in the 80's. I have the Tama now? They are both good drums, but I do prefer the Rogers..
S.C. signature is a BEAST. Sounded excellent in all tunings. 2nd is Pearl Jupiter, which the S.C. signature is based on, weirdly enough. Just have a clean record worthy sound.
Didn't stew use a Gladstone? Idk how nitpicky that is but idk if he used the Jupiter
I thought the Rodgers sounds best in all 3 tuning levels.
Totally agree
As he dropped the tuning the Rogers really shined.
You were correct!
that stage amp behind you .. same exact one I've had in my house since I was a baby lol
I found it at goodwill for like $20. I wasnt going to get it until I saw it had a giant orange paiste 2002 sticker on it lol.
I have a Dnyasonic and love it, but all these snares are incredible! I'd happily play either
That Rogers Dynasonic is smooth. Doesn’t pinch down on the resonance like the other two. Great snares across the board.
Love the video for me the Rogers, I have a Slingerland sound king and I think it’s brilliant, if you have not already tried one, this would be a great choice
This is exactly what I decided to look into 2 days ago! Thanks man! 👍🏽👍🏽
The sound of Tama's SC Signature are super sexy for me, especially in high tuning... DAMN!
My favorite sound was the dynasonic high tuning. But my overall favorite snare was the Tama because I liked the sound in all tunings.
I have about 30 prized snare drums and one of my favourites is my 60s COB Dynnasonic, because it sounds amazing in any setting
Not just because I've owned a Dynasonic (6.5x14) for about 45 years but I feel it is really hard to beat for precise articulation to good solid back beat.
I like the Tama and that is the one if I had to play one forever . Great video
I personally like the Pearl. I'm a fan of the more dry sound
AmazingCheetos me too! Dry, clean and tight
The Pearl sounds a lot thicker and dry. I liked it best as well. Tama coming in 2nd.
I like the dry sound of the Pearl too!
Can I add that I really love the way your room came out so far? It’s so organized and neat. Hell, it even looks bigger (but that might be the lens you’re using.) keep up the awesome content! (PS. I see you doing your thang on other channels and I dig that too haha. Keep the collars coming as well!)

Gretsch COBs are definitely up to these, but on high tuning.
Rogers is my pick of these three.
I like them all but I am a COB freak!! My bestest is Rogers Powertone believe it or not! Great video!!
The funny thing is Stewart Copeland’s snare was apparently a Pearl Jupiter with a die cast batter hoop and a Gladstone throw off.
Great video. I prefer the SC145 at the high and mid tuning. I couldn’t pick between the Tama and Roger’s at the low tuning. I was surprised I actually didn’t like the Pearl as I thought I preferred a dryer sound.
Digging that Chrome Fibes kit in the background!
I love the snappiness of the Tama, especially on the high tuning. I think I would reach for a Jupiter, though.
I love my Slinglerland chrome over brass Buddy Rich model😏
I have a gene krupa slingerland soundking swapped strainer to a trick and it sounds immense with Tama diecasts on
That Pearl is shockingly good. Blows the other out of the water.
High: Rogers
Medium: Pearl
Low: Tama
Pearl overall but all 3 sounded very good.
Love that kick drum tone too, nice and punchy but with some nice boom.
This just gave me the great idea for an indestructible snare drum
Watched this video and suddenly ran over to my closet dusted off an old ten lug pearl jupiter(Gladstone throw off) and found a magnet after some looking and lo and behold I got one of those. And yes it is LOUD at any tuning. Totally forgot about that drum until five minutes ago.
Dude, the sound quality and video quality has gone up exponentially! I started watching at 70,000 at your channel has taken off! Keep it up! 👍
My first kit was Slingerland Weather King. Then an early 70's Roger's kit. Then I had a late 70's big R kit. After that came a few cheaper kits, and a really great set of Peavey RBS 1's. I would trade my house for the first three! What a dumb ass I was in my younger years!!
yes, finally new video,
I love all your videos, and I like all of your project!!
keep going man...😉
Rogers & Tama sound great. Pearl is not even in the same class. Great video!
They all sound good. Kick sounds good as well. So does your playing. Nice.
That pearl is sweeeet. I am buying one tomorrow for $75
Great video, great snares! Loving my vintage Gretsch Chrome over brass. Tuned high is an absolute delight.
The Rogers is my pick, I love mine
The funny thing is that the Tama Stewart Copeland is based on a Pearl snaredrum! The one Copeland used for a long time! 😁
The Pearl Jupiter and the Rogers sounded similar, but that Rogers sings
Liked them all. I have the Tama and it's literally ear piercing. It cuts through. I feel like I have to be more precise when playing it because it's less forgiving, not much decay. I feel ghost notes are harder because it's so sensitive.
I have an old 6.5x14 80's Pearl Export Chrome snare drum and its sound fairly similar to the Jupiter. But it lack features that the Jupiter had.
That's very groovy playing, Dave!
High tuning - ++++++++ for both Rogers and Tama.
Medium tuning - Rogers didn't sound so good, Tama sounded godly to me.

Yes I know. I began using Tama because of Copeland who was and still is one of my favorite players and all this time he was playing a pearl.

I'd like to know as well.

Where you at David? Starting to miss your videos!
Sounds great
I've got a Big R Dynosonic so Im biased, as the tuning got lower I thought it came into it's own. Rogers was ahead of their time.
I think the Tama sounded the cleanest . I favor that in this comparison
I own the jupiter and lovin’it🥁🥁🥁🇨🇦🇨🇦
Rogers, Slingerland, Ludwig. Early 60's heyday for brass. That's why they are climbing in value.
I have a really nice rogers dynasonic snare . I guess I am lucky to own one.
That Tama sounded good with all three tunings. Next, the Rogers had a nice low tuning. Finally, that Pearl sounded like garbage all around. Thanks for playing.
this
that stewart copeland snare sounds 🔥 and so does that jupiter
The Rogers for me.
Funny how the Rogers Dynasonic drops in tuning while you are playing. I got this same thing happening on my vintage Pearl 14x8 brass. Especially on low tunings...
14x8 brass Pearl? If its giving you that much trouble ill gladly take it off your hands. Is it a free floater?
I liked the Dynasonic at low tuning
I own three Tama snares. They are very nice, but I would go with the Rogers because it has a slower decay and sounds great.
I have the Tama. Almost went for the Jupiter and put a die cast hoop to do the Copeland thing but thought it would be easier to just get the Tama. Thanks for doing this demo.
Copeland never used the Jupiter, he used a Custom, with the Gladstone strainer - not a parallel strainer as the Jupiter has
Howard Evans Hey a while back a got the Pearl and I think the technical term for it is it’s the model B4514-what you’re talking about. It has the Gladstone and the hole placement identical to Stewart’s.
I’m a huge pearl fan but I like the Tama
2 weeks and this is what we get? Dammit David I demand more content
Stuart Copeland used the pearl one (with a diecast hoop on top) on all the police records

I'd go with the rogers.
