As we all know when it comes to drums, it’s the little things that can make life a little easier. Consistently positioning your snare drum is one of those things. Most drummers don’t have the luxury of setting up a kit once and being able to leave it up for long periods. The majority of drummers are setting up and tearing down a kit several nights a week. Even if you don’t, you are at least swapping out snare drums on your kit or at specific gigs. What if I told you with a simple strip of gaffer tape you can eliminate the guesswork of positioning your snare drum perfectly the way you like it every time? That’s what this drum hack does. After you have positioned your snare drum the way you like it, take a small strip of gaffer tape and put it on one of the rubber sleeves on the basket. Then take a small piece of gaffer tape and stick it on the shell lined up with the piece on the rubber sleeves you just put on. That it!! Now you can consistently place your snare drum to the perfect spot at every gig without ever having to fidget with it. Give it a try. You might be surprised at how well it works. What do you guys think? Do you have a specific way you position your snare drum? Have you ever thought to use this hack? Leave a comment. Let’s talk about it! Stay creative, and have a great rest of the week. Love you, guys!! Okay. Byeeeee. 🥁🤓👊🏻❤️🙏🏻 — #testabeatdrums #thedrumsultant #drumtuning #snaredrum #snare #drummer #vibe #geartok #drumtok #process #technique #fixxerupper #tuning #sound #CapCut #techtiptuesday #snaredrum #tipsandtricks #drumhacks #drumsultant #techtip #maintenance

As we all know, when it comes to drums, the sounds we create are not just limited to the traditional tools. The snare drum sound is one of those things. You would be surprised at what you can get to sound like a snare drum without even using the snare wires. I saw this hack in a video on social media, and I had to try it. In the example, they put coffee beans in a snare drum with only one head on it and shook it up and down to get this interesting groosh sound. That got me thinking about what type of sound I would get if I put both drum heads on a snare drum while having coffee beans inside and played it like normal. The sound created was quite interesting! The only way I can describe it is a snappy yet gooshy sound. In hindsight, I would have gotten a more traditional sound if I had used a coated drumhead, but I wanted to do this with a clear drumhead. I'm so glad I gave this a try because now it adds another tool in the mental toolbox to help create. Give it a try. You might be surprised at how well it works. What do you guys think? Have you ever experimented with uniquely getting snare sounds? Have you ever thought to use this hack? Leave a comment. Let’s talk about it! Stay creative, and have a great rest of the week.

Tech Tip: How to easily remember your last drumhead change. . . . We all know with drums, the little things can always make life easier or more difficult. With so many things going on, the last thing we tend to remember is when we last changed our drum heads. Well, with this drum hack, this is no longer a problem. When you have finished dialing in your batter side or resonant drum head, grab a sharpie and write the date just above the logo of the drum head. It could be small or it could be big, but it must be written where you can see it. THATS IT!!! It's that easy. It’s so easy a caveman can do it… 😏🤣 But for real, this helps you track when you changed your drum heads last and when it's the right time to change them again. It's little things like this, that make life that much easier with all the things we need to keep track of as drummers and professionals. Stay creative, and have a great rest of the week. Love you, guys!! Okay. Byeeeee. 🥁🤓👊🏻❤️🙏🏻 — #t#testabeatdrumst#thedrumsultantd#drumtunings#snaredrums#snared#drummerv#vibeg#geartokd#drumtokp#processt#techniquef#fixxeruppert#tunings#soundC#CapCut#techtiptuesday#doityourself #tipsandtricks #drumhacks #drumsultant #techtip #maintenance #sharpie

When it comes to drums, the simplest thing can make a difference in the sound. The tightness of our snare drum basket is one of those things. This drum hack is simple and can affect the drum in a big way, depending on the tuning. The idea is the tighter the snare basket is, the shorter the snare sound sounds, and as you loosen it you add the sustain and sizzle back to the sound. With this tuning, the difference is not astronomical, but it provides enough to give you something a little different. In the past, I would have come out and said how bad over-tightening your snare basket is. Although, this act can help to create a snare sound that serves a specific style of music. In the end, it all comes down to intentionality with this kind of drum hack. Have a reason why you do something “wrong” and it will never be wrong to do. Give it a try. You might be surprised at how well it works. What do you guys think? How tight do you have your snare basket? Have you ever experimented with the tightness of your snare basket? Leave a comment.

I have done a video like this before, but I don’t think I have explained this concept enough in the other ones. When cleaning a drum head with some water and a magic eraser, doesn’t give any tonal advantage to the drum or drum head whatsoever. It’s just an aesthetic thing. If you record videos, like clean-looking drum heads, or you resell drums and want the head to look clean for the buyer, this hack is for you. If you love having the marks on your drum heads and don’t want to clean them, that’s perfectly okay. This drum hack is just a tool you have the availability to use if the situation makes sense to utilize it. 🥁🤓😉 What do you guys think? Have you ever used this hack before? Did it work? Leave a comment and let me know! PS: I did use the @telefunken_mics m80 to record the voiceover. I love the versatility of this microphone! Okay. Byeeeee! 🥁🤓❤️💪🏻 — #testabeatdrums #thedrumsultant #drumtuning #snaredrum #snare #drummer #vibe #geartok #drumtok #process #technique #fixxerupper #tuning #sound #CapCut #tipsandtricks #snaredrum #aesthetic #drumsultant #maintenance #drumhacks
