  • it's not the snare that is horrible, it's the reverb effect that has been added to the video's audio

  • LOL, i'm absolut beginner but these snare is a joke ;-)))

    ... but your education is great !

    THX.

  • @masonnomo2 its the camera

  • @masonnomo2 its the camera

  • @RalleSZ its the camera

  • dude learn to tape your shit and dont talk like a pedophile

  • moon gel dude! tape! somethin cause it sounds like shit

  • Right Right Left Left Right Right Left Left. Funny how he said it.

  • Toss that snare in the trash bro !!

  • ummm.. this guy in the video is funny

    you cant define the word by using the word....lol

  • cant you use a little bit more reverb? its way too dry i think! what do YOU think?

  • Any way you could post some sort of guide on doing this, only in Traditional Stick form? I'm having quite a bit of trouble with this, and unless i can pick it up, I'll be kicked off the snare and put in the pit. :-(

  • the rudiments of drumming are the rudiments.

  • first thing: the snare (i think this single word is explaining itself, if you don't think so, read the other comments on this vid, you have a 99% chance to encounter a comment concerning this snare

    second thing: if everyone would be "learning" the double stroke by doing 2 single strokes (no, this isn't a double stroke!)in super slowmo and getting faster, they would piteously fail and stop playing drums

    nonetheless, i hope my comment was helpful for you and your further videos.

    Peace!

  • lol.. the tipping point how to improove the speed and how the technique actually works you didn't explain -.- fortunately im a drummer myself and know it. this video is first of all bad recorded and second totally unuseful for beginners. low~

  • HOly shit your snare sounds like my dead cat MEOWING

  • He could definitely stand to put an O-ring or other muffler on that snare and adjust the strainer. That snare sounded absolutely AWEFUL.

  • hahahahahahahahahahah. i laughed so hard reading this.

  • mine is signifigantly more, dikeface jones

  • Tune your snare drum

  • your fingers are probably blocking the way back- try to hit once and immediately open your hand so the stick flies back just by itself- then try with a grip but position your hand so that there's some space between your thumb and pointing finger, also make sure to loose other fingers so that they move together with the stick as it rebounds, check Dave Weckl's videos about that on youtube

  • its not distorting, it just sounds like ass.

  • Whats up with that snare,you want to be as professional as possible but you record ur snare WAYYY to hot...Dude learn recording levels before you start teaching.Makes you look like a noob ass begin'r

  • well also when someone has a snare like that that has that sort of trashy overtone then its usually a problem within the snares themselves. it sounds to me like a snare or two is bent and is vibrating against the drum weirdly after he hits it.
