Big Fat Snare Drum Steve's Donut and original 14" Snare combo Pack
Add Depth and Dynamics to Your Snare Drum
Turn your modern snare drum sound into massive vintage-style tone with Steve's Donut from Big Fat Snare Drum. Steve's Donut is a slightly expanded take on Big Fat Snare Drum's original Donut design, contracting the center opening to just 5" and providing a broader deadened playing surface. Not only does this drop the pitch and focus the attack, but drummers were delighted to discover a massive range of extra tone for playing subtle ghost notes. What's more, adding or removing a Steve's Donut is so fast that you can comfortably do it in the middle of a song if desired, and it's such a handy tool in the studio that every session drummer ought to keep at least one Big Fat Snare Drum Donut handy all the time.
Big Fat Snare Drum Steve's Donut Features:
- An easy way to transform your snare drum's sound
- Drops the pitch and timbre of your snare drum for a dry vintage crack
- Reduced resonance, beefs up your attack and delivers a dry yet penetrating tone with low sustain
- Broad off-center playing surface dampens ghost notes but provides you with expanded dynamics
- A great way to simulate classic 1960s and 1970s snare drum tones
- Installs instantly and is easy to remove, thanks to the handy finger cutout
Beef Up Your Snare in Seconds
The fat, dry '70s snare sound is one of few constants in rock 'n' roll. Your favorite drummers had to resort to taping T-shirts and tea towels to their heads for those now-iconic tones. Today you can beef up any snare in seconds, professionally and cleanly, with the original Big Fat Snare Drum Auto-Tone. This rubber/plastic damper actually lowers the pitch of your snare about a whole tone, eliminating overtones in the process. The resulting snare sound is punchier, smoother, and much more cooperative with live mixes and studio productions.Drummers have been impressed with the results in our own studios; a feature we particularly like is the thumb-sized cutout, which facilitates quick removals with a hand or stick mid-song.
Big Fat Snare Drum: professional looks, professional results
Wallet, tape, gels, rings — Big Fat Snare Drum know the drill when it comes to head damping. BFSD tone shapers have a sound all their own. The rubberized outer gaskets add weight to snare heads, much like a wallet or brass weight, for a deeper tone and a snug fit. Even better, they look professional and won't mark up drumheads. Today you can spot Big Fat Snare Drums on Shawn Pelton's kit on Saturday Night Live and in recording studios across America.
Big Fat Snare Drum Auto-Tone 14" Snare Damper Features:
- Re-creates that '70s snare drum sound: fat, dry, and smooth
- Helps with close-miking onstage and in the studio
- More effective than wallets and weights alone
- Cleaner than tape and gel
- Installs and removes in seconds
- Rubber gasket lowers pitch for a heartier punch
- Plastic film eliminates unwanted overtones
- Thumb cutout for quick removal
- Made in the USA
