"Drummers Only" Bob Gatzen Tuning Tip #5 Snare Drum

I love your video's because they are all very clear!!!

That's a very nice compliment... thank you Riccardo!

Hey Bob, where do these videos come from?, I don't think they're from your 1994 video, or are they in the bonus videos in that dvd or something like that?, cheers.

i opened up my YT channel by posting clips from the 1994 & 2003 "Tuning, Sound & Design" videos and DVD. Then decided to shoot vids in my studio.

I'm looking forward to 2010 as plan on shooting new, innovative videos on rhythm & sound DVD package that I will share with on YT

Mr. Gatzen.. ( i guess in away im continuing my short story) anyway, i for one greatly appreiciate all the videos you have posted and enjoy watching them to help keep your ideas fresh in my mind because all of which are necessary. i too am a firm believer in drum experimentation, my thumbs are up... take it easy

Great comment.... experimentation.. .hear that guys!?

Thanks W! and please call me Bob... no formalities on my channel!

Mr. Gatzen (continuing my original post). i have tried the cliping method with Metrix black coated wires. i currently own 2 different puresound wires, the equalizer 16 strand and the twisted both of which i enjoy the sound they produce but i prefer the twisted more. i guess my point being that i wish that puresound (and im not trying to knock them) would put a little bit more effort and patience into there perduction resulting in perfect alined wires. ive being dying to try grover snare cables..

I decided to use Gibraltor snares due to there popularity. Puresound was acquired by Evans last year so we are working very hard on quality control and innovation. Soon, you'll see a new snare design that will knock your pants off!

Mr. Gatzen... i understand where your coming from in the brief topic (in this video) about perfect alinement of the snare wires. But (altho and correct me if im wrong i dont think that those are puresound wires) every time i get puresound wire there always 1-4 wires that are some what longer than one another (i have seen your video about cliping them) and if desiding not to clip the wires this causes slight tweeking to get them all perfectly alined.

Thanks Daniel appreciate it!
