Add some snap to your snare with upgraded wires! Nick D. walks us through the install 🥁

Changing snare wires is one of the most mundane things in the world for me; I'm genuinely impressed with Nick just for keeping his cool haha.

I could listen and learn with Nick all day.

Nick is by far the BEST investment sweetwater could’ve ever made.

Can't believe I wasted 1,5 hours of my life that I'll never get back, trying to get figure it out and get this right, for whatever reason. Yet, this video helped me do it in under ten minutes. Thanks so much!

I just had to replace the wires on my snare for the first time. And this video helped me out tremendously. Thank you so much to whoever you are.

I've been playing drums for 16 years and didn't know I needed this video ... thank you Nick!

An important detail to add, the snares have two sides , the snare bracket soldered side, and snare bracket unsoldered, or smooth side Typically the soldered side is against the head, however, some bracket manufacturers, have a slight pitch, some are flat

I love that classic Jon Lovitz is teaching us how to repair drums :D

very good!

Thank you so much

Never knew snare drums had wires

thatßs why snare drums are called snare drums

How about Dyna-sonic snare wires?

I have this very specific problem, the tensión rod of the wire doesnt work, it doesnt spin

Is there a top and bottom of the wire? What side goes up? Not showing someone who never did properly.

Thanks for this! I have a ludwig acrolite with P85 strainer and the plastic ribbon slips/moves at the butt end (screws are as tight as can be). So I can't put the snares on as tight as I'd like. Known issue? fixes for it?

The metal piece that the screws tighten into might be bent, that was the cause on my sonar force 3000 snare from the 80s

Do one with the wires version please. 🙏

Have you ever heard of the close up shot?? Can’t see the important details that I was seeking

Wondering what that piece of fabric/cloth was between the snare wires & bottom head?

That was most likely there to negate the buzz from the wires in general as this was a shelf stored snare, which you don't want buzzing in case anything happens in the room

I'm having a problem when I switch off the snares ther is a buzz when I hit the drum. Is that supposed to happen?

In my experience, it usually means that you have the wires angled too tight to the drum. You DON'T need to take the wires off, but there should be a knob next to the throw-off instead. Find whichever way 'loosen' is on your drum, and adjust it to your liking. (Hope this still helps, I see this is a few months old :)

My favourite wires aren't Canopus, puresounds are just too dark sounding for me.

When you say “make your tweak” I wish you would have explained what you are trying to accomplish .

this guy looks like a dollar store john lovitz..

Uh...snare wires have a top and a bottom...this should have been shown.
