In order to make the drum kit sound better, is it a good way to change the drum skin?

The drum skin is only one aspect, the biggest problem of the low-grade drum sleeve is actually that the workmanship of the drum cavity is too inferior, and the entire circumferential edge is often not on a plane at all, resulting in the vibration of the drum skin can not be well transmitted to the drum cavity, and the air in the drum cavity also has the problem of "air leakage".

You polish the drum cavity well, and find a way to fill in the uneven areas with some epoxy resin and other things, and polish them well, so that the drum cavity and the drum skin are in perfect contact state, so that the tone can be improved a lot.

With other hardware, there's not much you can do unless it's changing drums.

Changing the drum skin can improve the timbre of the drum itself, but the premise is that changing the drum skin is not a new drum skin can be solved, and the sound of the drum is very related to the drum cavity itself, as well as the manufacturing process There are also some other methods that may improve the timbre of the drum Hehe, long research I believe you can succeed

If you want to improve your tone, the first thing is to change the drums (nonsense). The second is to take good care of your drums and cymbals. The third is to return some small parts such as drum skins, bottom springs, drum rods, and hammers.

The fourth is to add some small things, such as putting a little medical bandage on the drum skin, and the bandage is ...... M-shapedI really don't know. It's a bandage with a few protrusions on the drum skin. This will make the tremolo of the drum smaller.

The inside should be smooth and free of clutter.

It sounds good with a good drum skin.

The drum skin can't change the timbre at all, it's just a trick to the ear.

I'll list the most important sounding hardware in a row.

1.Tympanic cavity. 2。Drum skin.

3.Drum sticks. 4.Pressing rings.

5.Suspension system.

6.Screws and screw holders.

The material of the drum cavity and the craftsmanship make it all the difference. If your drum is very average, don't use a drum skin that is too good, it can't be reflected. We recommend two of the most versatile and common drum skin models.

1.Brand remo model watherking

2.Brand Evans model G1

1. Cowhide: The drum skin is the skin on the drum surface of percussion instruments, such as waist drums, ethnic drums, Latin percussion instruments Conga drums, and bongo drums, all of which are made of cowhide;

2. Sheepskin: The treble drum requires a thick cowhide and thick soil, and the thick soil of the drum skin directly affects the sound of the drum skin.

3. Plastic polyester film material: DuPont Chemical Company of the United States has developed a polyester film, which is an ultra-high tension and strength film, which is not afraid of dry or humid climate.

The drum kit is a very important percussion instrument in a jazz band, which usually consists of a bass drum, a snare drum, two or more toms, one or two hi-hats, a rhythm cymbal, and a cymbal with pedals. Of course, sometimes due to the need for performance, some such as cowbells, wooden fish, shakers, triangles, and hanging bells will be added, no matter how many devices are added, they are all played by one person. The drummer hits the parts with a drumstick to make it sound.

Commonly used drumsticks in jazz include wooden drum sticks, drum brushes made of steel wire, and bundle sticks made of thin wooden strips.

1. It can be divided into three parts: removing the old drum skin, replacing it with a new drum skin and debugging.

2. Demolition part: Use the drum keys at the inner four corners (below), rotate the screw rod on the bone surface counterclockwise, and unscrew the pressure ring on the outermost edge of the rear drum to take it down. After going down to press the ring, the drum skin can be taken off.

3. After removing all the screw rods of the drum surface, put the corresponding drum skin on the line, and then install and restore the screw rod, and the screw rod can not be fully tightened at this time.

4. The last step is to debug: put the drum skin well, press the pressure ring, one by one screw first slightly bring it on, choose a screw as the starting point, first set you as the starting point of the screw twist half a circle, then adjust the starting point diagonal screw, then adjust the diagonal right, then to the diagonal, then to the right, in this order a little bit of adjustment (the principle is the symmetry point), and then make sure that the drum skin is tightened, at a distance of about an inch from the pressure ring (Figure 1 below) with the hammer head of your drumstick, Tap the edge of the drum at each screw position in a clockwise direction to hear if the sound is the same, if the pitch is high, relax a little, and if the pitch is low, tighten a little until the tone is the same. It should be noted that the drum skin needs to be suspended and adjusted when tuning, and cannot be placed on the table or ground for tuning, because it will affect the vibration of the lower drum skin and drum cavity (Figure 2 below).

Drum keys you can use hose keys instead, hardware stores should have, one for a dollar.

4.Debugging: Put the drum skin well, press the pressure ring, screw it one by one, choose a screw as the starting point, first set the starting point of the screw to twist half a circle, and then adjust the starting point diagonal base screw, and then adjust the diagonal right, and then to the diagonal, and then to the right, in this order a little bit of adjustment, and then make sure that the drum skin is tight, about an inch away from the pressure ring, with a drumstick hammer head, according to the clockwise direction to hit the edge of the drum surface of each screw position, listen to whether the sound is the same, the pitch is high, just relax a little, the pitch is low, tighten it until the sound is the same, indicating that the drum skin has been changed.
