The Adder.mov

The Adder is my new accessory for drums (Patent Applied for) which has two modes of use: Passive and Active.

In Passive mode it is held on to the top drum head with an elastic cord with 2 hooks which attach to the drum's tension rods. This eliminates ring and adds a crisper "snarier" tone. When you turn off the bottom snares, leaving the Adder secured to the top head, you get a muted and quieter sound similar to gut snares, which is useful for quieter playing.

In Active mode it is held in one hand so it can be tapped or slid on the drum head to give a variety of rhythmic and tonal effects, and to provide instant changes from the "snares on" to snares off" sound.
