Power Drill + Snare Drum = Tone??? Testing out Vented Shells & Heads
Ever wanted to get that iconic late 90's/early 00's Vented Snare sound? Today I drill down (pun intended) into how you can capture the vibe of those vented heavy ply shells popularised by OCDP back in the day. We make our own DIY version of an Evans Dry head to see whether you can get the same sound without drilling into a drum shell, and of course - we attack a poor Dixon snare with a power drill.
Some interesting results! Let me know what you think in the comments!
