i appreciate you bringing the fact that you tune higher than most people think, and a lot of the sound has to do with the foh guys. new drummers usually learn that the hard way
Wow man! This is simply WOW! Thanks so much for this tutorial. Sounds so amazing! 😍 I recently purchased a new snare. It's a Dixon Cornerstone 14x6.5" Red Gum and yesterday I also purchased an Evans Heavyweight for it. Just matched both bad boys, tuned it extremely high and man, I just love it. I really love that there's no need of muffling in my snare, so you get the natural and juicy snare tone. But after seeing this... I'm really considering tuning it your way. Can't wait to return and taste it in church with good mics and the full band. 🙌🏼 God please hurry churches return in Guatemala! Haha
I'm 52, been playing drums and tuning them a while, i haven't played in an age! But do still keep up on my snare drum rudiments (practice pad) Most days, playing singles, doubles, paradiddles, odd number rolls and of course tripletise everything that's taught generically as a straight time rudiment. Like I say i have a lot of gigging experience but not so much lately, basically I'm saying your tuning method's are pretty solid. 10/10. Yes engineers will mess with the front of house sound mix for the audience but it's very important that you're happy with your sounds in the near field. Obviously you have to like what you're hearing while you play, you are the source of the sound in essence after all.
I love tuning drums. I can't explain it. I've played a little bit, but not anymore. I'm just not good at playing a kit and I accepted this and moved on 😄 I still just love the calming feeling of finding what the drum wants to be tuned at. I've said multiple times, "ummm, hey. Do you... Do you mind if I tune your drums?" 😂
The 'CHEATCODES' to the 'fat' snare sound are: 1. Having a tune bot (amzn.to/2rWOFJ1) ⚡️ 2. Tune the batter Head to 235 hz ⚡️ 3. CRANK the resonant head ⚡️ 4. Always use your ear ⚡️
I use this App called Drumtune Pro. Do you think its Accurate? play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.exaltd.DRUM_TUNER_DrumtunePRO_Drums_Percussion_Tuning&hl=ko
Looking back on your videos Noah ! 😒 I’m so sorry for what you are going through in life. I Miss your video so much and I hope you can get back on a drum kit one day
Gut erklärt: Resohead maximum high, guter Teppich und das Schlagfell auch bei 230-240hz justieren. Beim Dämpfer sollte man experimentieren: Bei inverted (S-) hoops sind Ringe toll, denn sie bleiben sicher unter dem Spannreifen hängen. Snare Weights , Moongel etc haben auch ihren Reiz. Letztlich ist auch ein gezieltes Detuning klasse: Zum Bespiel die eine Stimmschraube beim Snarestrainer ganz lose drehen und schon wird es "fat" - ohne weitere Anbauteile 😊
I've learned not to over tension the snare wires..used to tighten them too much to the point that they were choking the sound. For worship band purposes I use either a 5 x 14" wood shell snare drum with an Evans '56 Calftone batter head and Ambassador hazy snare side head, or a Ludwig Carl Palmer Signature 3.7 x 14" brass shell snare drum with Emperor coated white batter head and hazy Ambassador snare side head (believe it or not it does tune down to a nice 'fat' tone). I tune the batter heads to an approximate 'E' and the resonant head a step above that (about an 'F'). If dampening is required I use a small folded piece of duct tape on the batter side head. I bring a roll of duct tape with me to dampen according to the acoustics of the venue. I use brushes often so good brush response is a must. My tuning generally works well for most applications. Good info thanks for posting.
other stuff that worked for me for getting the "bethel snare sound" was getting the Big Fat Snare Drum that you put on top of your snare, and hitting the snare with the butt of the stick. My whole snare kit: - 14x8 pork pie snare - 42 snare strand - evans st dry (2 x 7mil ply) - big fat snare drum - tuned low (personal preference, you have to experiment between low to mid)
love this; this would've helped me a couple years ago. I would tune my snare low to get that "fat" sound, till I heard someone else play it from across the room and it sounded boxy and dead. I hated it and after that I just kept messing with it till I figured it out and I essentially do the same thing but w/o a tune bot. Also use the luckerz myself and I love them but they are a painnnnn when changing heads haha
Nice... Great tips, great video. Well done explained an details. I wish like to see with the other components of the drum. 🤩🤩 If you can, please do it. 🙏🏼
Wow. Thank you so much for this. Very much needed. Been looking for other similar videos and you really made it simple and it helped me out a lot!! Thanks again🙌🏼🙌🏼 #AllForJesus

@@DeBoltDrumming Next month I'll be part of it. As the dollar is very high, it makes it difficult for us here in Brazil. But let's learn more and improve !!
Bro! thank you ⚡️❤️ I do something close to this! Just using different frequencies and approaching it differently. I have tuning videos for all of my drums on my academy :)
@@DeBoltDrumming Wow AWESOME !!! You can not go wrong with a Ludwig Classic Maple. As a matter of fact, I've been checking up on those drums for myself. This kit is the one I will be getting. Great drums brother !👍👍
Do you play rimshots much or just in the center of the drum with no rimshot. I’ve found that playing in the center with no rimshot makes for a beefier sounding snare. Curious how you approach playing?
Hey man, I have a question I only have a 14 by 5.5 but good quality pearl snare, works for all my gigs and sounds always great but for worship. Would you go different about tuning it then your deeper snare?
hmmmm. If you tuned it to the same frequency of mine it might sound a bit higher than we would want (but honestly I am not sure). I would experiment and see where it starts to sit really nice without being flabby. ⚡️
Hey bro! It is not, I had to buy a separate attachment to get mine to fit on the Black Beauty ⚡️❤️ I got mine from here: dominoretroplate.com/ludwig/black-beauty/
Why my drumstick shoulder is always worn out? When I play slow song, it doesn't worn out that much but when I play fast song it just worn out. Like I used a brand-new drumstick and after like 2-3 songs, the shoulder is just like worn out.
I thought you and the other drummers touring with modern worship bands just use drum samples with Roland RT30's triggers. Is that not the case? And If it is, as long as the drum doesn't sound horrible, everything will sound just fine. Or am I completely wrong here?
A real blessing this video, I pray you may release videos like this again.

I never used samples live! I think the main thing is making sure the source (i.e the snare) sounds good. So good tuning is a must.
