Your problem is bolded. Replace your heads with better ones and you should start to see your problem disappear. _________________ "To recap, we've learned that Billy Cobham practices on water and Thomas Lang walks on it...I might have to bring this information to the local seminary to get their opinion..."

Tune the reso head higher or lower until you get a desired tone. _________________ Bish

| since it is not 1986, i would suggest not muffling your drums at all. i guess in all it's personal opinion, but i don't want them to thud and sound dead. i want them to have some overtones. i currently play an accent cs custom elite. i have evans hd on the snare, and ec2's on the tome. they take away alot of the overtones, but still leave some. all personal opinion. |

When you swap heads you can get some thicker type heads (2ply) that will have some "built in" muffling capabilities towards the higher freq. More mass in the head moves slower producing lower freq= less ring. |
