Get That Sound: Matt Halpern Snare Drum Tone

This particular tuning was so much fun because of the unique approach Matt has to creating his sound.

Let’s get into it.

This tuning is built on a well-tuned snare side head and properly tensioned snare wires.

With that said, the snare side head is tight but has some give to it. The snare wires have an appropriate amount of tension that is not too tight or loose and allows the snare wires to breathe and not sound choked!

This process allows the snare drum to have sensitivity and articulation while in this higher tuning.

The batter-side tuning is a little more involved.

For starters, I equally “finger-tighten” the tension rods as tight as possible until I can’t turn them anymore with the nub of these two drum keys.

After the figure-tightening, I use quarter turns to add more tension to the drum.

This technique provides enough tension on the drum head and ensures you hear the shell and drum head working together.

The secret sauce for this process is the drum head choice, batter die-cast hoop, the Brass Shell, dampening, and the drum key technique.

The drum key technique allows me to know where I am tension-wise and know how much more I need to go when getting to a desired sound.

The Evans Heavyweight Dry snare drumhead is designed to have excellent durability and a compressed attack. The UV-coating and precision-drilled dry vents really help with that.

This 14” x 6.5” brass shell allows for a lot of versatility while still providing the depth needed to deliver a full and precise sound.

What do you guys think? How would you achieve this snare sound? Does the process look similar to this? Leave a comment. Let’s talk about it!

Love you, guys!! Okay. Byeeeee. ????????❤️
