Crossbreed snare?

Post by Davi_Jo »

Hello :)
It's few weeks I gave a try to produce Crossbreed and it really involved me :omg:
Just I have still lot to do with the snare… I achieved one enough metallic but not so punchy :sick:
What I'm wondering it's if anybody of you knows some tricks to make this typical snare or if there is a website where I can download a sample of it?

Look up N-Vitral's video in which he shows how he did the Kling Klong snare :) The key part of those types of snares is using an acoustic recording of a snare drum and distort that, as that gives that metallic sound. Making it punchy is mostly a matter of EQ'ing and perhaps some compression.

Hey guys,
didn't now precisely where put it, thought pointless opening a new topic so here I am bumping this one. :naughty:
So, I adjusted the snare, pretty satisfied but not definitively convinced.
Do you think could it work for a crossbreed/hard dnb track? Is there something to fix? :?

for the thuddy snare, mix a 909 with a real snare and peak out 200hz then distort it a bit. when you're eqing the snare automate the 200hz to drop every 1/4 note. for the more metalish sound, use the same snare but forget the 200hz and add more highs

as far as your preview. the snare is lost in the mix and the whole thing just sounds filtered

So here an attempt of the metalish snare, hope it's better :)

I didn't understand at all the passage of dropping the 200Hz each 1/4 notes about the punchy snare :?

automate 200 to be really high at the attack of the snare then drop back to zero quickly over the length of the snare

Oh ok, that's clear. Anyway, is ok that one in the sample as metalish snare or does it require any changement?
thanks
