Clickbait? Maybe, but we're not kidding. It may seem crazy but there really are some potentially harmful side effects to muffling your snare drum. In fact, a lot of drummers muffle their snare drums for what we would generally consider to be the “wrong” reasons. We’ll explain and demonstrate why.
In the interludes today, we’ve used muffling as a creative choice rather than a bandaid.
