Snare Tuning Hack! Amazing snare sounds quickly  

I will be sure to try this out! Awesome idea!

That snare sounds so good tuned up

Going through drum heads so easily it’s RIDICULOUS

Masshoff talked about this years ago and I believe he deserves credit. Additionally DO NOT TRY on a stave snare, the uneven tension will destroy your drum

I've been using this technique for probably over a decade now, works really well, but one thing to keep in mind is when they get really loose, they will rattle, so some cotton or something to stop the two lugs from rattling will help 👍🏼 happy music making

The hack works well if you’re okay with getting new heads more often, seeing as how the rim would bend

Yeah I'll definitely check this shit out next time I go in the garage

Thank you I was trying to tune my snare for school today

this snare sounds so good

You could bend the hoop or even warp the drum maybe crack it if its wood. I would try it on crappy snare.

I love the last sound before you loosened the bolts. 🥁

Bro thank you so much man my snare drum was sou ding a little bad and you helped me fix it thank you so much man

I'm an Evans user but this makes remo look cool

Wow! Now that is cool!

This is an evans thing. Remo heads used to be on the brittle side and i could see someone with diecast rims destroying a lug case if it was tabletop tight. Gotta distribute the tension evenly. But on a lower tuning, it's totally safe.

Oh my god! The end snare. Is... pure bliss! 👏👏👏🥹

benny is a goat for sure great tip

Thank you!

🔥🔥🔥🔥

Thanks.

secrets of the Universe REVEALED! Super snare sound. Thanks

Damn, that’s dope son. How can I get the top end to ring out a little more? Like a longer lasting sizzle

Try doing the two lugs across from eachother. Less wrinkle

haha great!! 💪🏼🤩

I tried it, and i prefer using a kerchief way more. It does destroy both the head rim and the drum rim.

I've seen this method applied mostly on 10 lugs snare but not 8...Does this method apply to 8 lugs snare too?

what snare is this ?

I've seen this hack before but I've read you can't leave the head like that because it may cause the shell to warp. Is that true?

Likely won't work with die cast hoops...but I'll give it try.

Nice but does having it so unevenly tuned affect its longevity?

I'd think different parts of the head being under different tensions would be bad for the head though. I'd be nervous of trying this, As someone that cant replace heads too often

🔥🔥🔥👍🏻

Ok, So i've seen this before, on a tutorial video of sorts on RU-vid. I've tried it and it is slick. I had a bunch of folks diss it over on reddit, stating that it warps rims etc. Does this work as well on cast hoops as rolled hoops?

❤

Does this work on toms?

Could the uneven tension damage the drum? I really want to try it out, but not if I risk damage.

How to instantly warp your batter head tutorial

Yo how do you get the snare to sound like that?

When you hear someone say * want me to show you a trick* dont do it bro walk away😂 dont bent your drums

I can't afford to bend another rim lol

Won’t that bend the drum hoop?

He is unloosing it I’m not dumb

wouldnt that be cool if we could have robot AI tuners on all our drums, with the press of a selection on your phone, they all go to work and tune perfectly how you want either to factory presets or user presets. like the robot tuner gibsons.

will this not bend the hoop?

My ocd

This would jusk kill everything about your snaredrum: you are warping the head, deforming your rim, putting insane amounts of strain on the other lugs,... Just never do this on an actualy expensive snaredrum, tune it properly using the right paterns for the snare you are using! (You can find these online)

Yo what!

Did I see wavy snare head?

Você desarmonizou a pele do corpo (desintegrou), qualquer outro tambor de diâmetro menor somado a esse soará mais grave ou mais agudo se maior! Afinação de tambores é muito mais do que se agradar com eles! Estude" porque não é só isso, o jogo ainda nem começou! 👉 👽

Personally I wouldn’t have my snare tuned that high and drop two lugs on the same side that low. Uneven pressure like that can warp your drum or cause damage to the bearing edge.

Benny...Benny...Benny...why?

May not be the best thing for your hoops. Die cast might be ok 2.3 mm triple flange could start to warp, maybe, maybe not. But thinner triple flange hoops I would not recommend doing this.

I feel like this would fuck up my snare drum....

Hello Remo. I think it sounded better before loosening ,but, was ringy. Everything I learn about tuning says don't do that.

He's only hitting rim shots as well.

What head is that?

Nothing new. We've (drummers) been doing this all along. Sometimes in between songs so i dont have to change snares for a different sound.

Yeah, putting all the pressure on one side of the rim is bad for the drum, thats why it's always a star motion.

it damages the head

I wouldn't do this with die-cast hoops...😲

Great way to ruin a drum if you're not careful

So you spend hours and hours and hours mastering your craft. But now your getting hung up on the 2 minutes it takes to turn the other 8 lugs.

Why trick? why not technique? I'll try for sure

Don't do this...just tune your snare properly and use muffling techniques on the snare.

Great way to damage your heads, rims, and drums

Idk about this man, I feel like I'll ruin my snare doing this

This isn’t a “hack”. This is common knowledge and there’s a thousand video on it. Stop using clickbait titles

All those tones sounded terrible tho

Makes no sense
