View Full Version : Why do my snares give off an odd noise?

I have recently noticed something about my snare drum that did not used to happen. Whenever I hit the snare drum, the snare wires give off this ugly and annoying vibrating sound. Almost like that are vibrating really fast against the snareside head. It is NOT a ringing noise, I have moongel on my snare anyways. It definitely has something to do with the snare wires. I took them off and put them back on to see if it would help but it just keeps making this noise.

Also, the noise is reduced when I put my snare lever thing(the thing that changes the snare to the conga) at half way or so with a folded up piece of paper to hold it there, but even then it still makes the vibrating noise, just not as bad.

Any suggestions?

and learn how to tune.

snare drums are not plug-n-play.
