POW snare reverb
Hi all!
Hate to do this to you...but I'm having some trouble. I'm mixing this band that requested a "POOOW" snare. I guess what they are getting at is a really long snare. I can't get my reverb to do this for me with out it sounding "too much room". Can you guys point me in the right direction? What settings would you go for? Decay, Predelays..etc etc All my best

Re: POW snare reverb
You can try a re-snare... put the snare drum on the bathroom floor on it's side, loosen the snares a little and put a speaker on the floor pointed at the top of the snare and send a super gated version of the snare drum (you just want the attack) through the speaker and mic the snare side of the drum and record that. Then you mix your original (ungated) snare in w/ the "re-snare" track and you've got a nice full snare w/ more decay than normal. It works really well plus you can still add more reverb or bus out to an aux fader w/ extra compression, if need be. Not sure if this gives you the "POOOW" you're wanting or not but it does add decay and sounds really good.

Wow, sound cool but a bit of a hassle. Well I guess it's worth a try...

Re: POW snare reverb
The fun part is when you have everything set up and you hit record and sit outside the bathroom door and listen to those snares rattling away!! It always makes me smile
