Is it Even a Problem? | Overtones in Context
There’s a good chance that you spend quite a bit of time practicing alone and, as a result, listening to your drums on their own without musical context. Certain overtones may stick out to you and drive you to muffle the drums to “fix” the problem. But how does this impact sound within a musical performance? We’ve got a whole collection of demonstrations for you to illustrate how context molds our perception of drum sounds.
