I have a yamaha shellpack of all maple, which includes the matching snare. In playing this kit, the snare is sooo loud that it overwhelms the volume of the
toms. So, after hearing sound samples on youtube, I bought a Yamaha birch snare.
The birch snare sounds like heaven, but here is my observation: When I transition
from striking the snare, over to striking the toms for a break, it sounds 'wrong'. The sonic character of hitting the birch, to hitting the maple, seems dissonant and askew. If I go back to using the maple snare, the sonic transition
from snare-maple to toms-maple is consonant and sounds 'correct'.
So my question is: Is there some tuning technique that you guys and gals
use, such to help a snare blend in to a shellpack of a different material ?
Do you maybe tune the snare to an interval of one of the toms ? or . . . ?
