Hi !

Im new here i just have a question about recording snare .
Because the guys that i record ..ever use hard rimshots on snare and everytime i end with a little attack snare with poor body in the mix !
My question is :
On this days of modern rock is common to play and record the snare with clean shots and still gettin good attack ??
Or its have to be the with rimshots ?

Thanks

sadly, today it's more common to replace or add a sampled snare using drumagog or sound replacer.

i personaly don't like it but hey, if it does the job....

another thing is trying to change the way the drummer hits the snare and get a fuller sound on tape.

depense on the style, the song and the arrangement.

useally a rim shot comes at a place you want to accent like the end of a musical sentance or on a breake. but some aggresive styles use only rim shots all the way.
there are no rules here.

do what feels right for the music.
