Punchy DnB Snare Sound Design | Using Addictive Drums, Serum, Kick 2 & Operator
In this video we walk through all of the stages of sound design when synthesising a snare drum in DnB. Drum and Bass snares are punchy, high energy, short and full of character. You really need to get your snare to punch through in the mix. I'm using Addictive Drums, Serum, Kick 2, Operator, Trash 2, JST Clip and Valhalla Room in this tutorial, as well as Ableton stock plugins.

Nice! I was just wanting to learn more about DnB-style snares, so this is perfect timing. As always, very clearly presented, and the info can be applied to other VSTs and DAWs. Also, nice cactus.

Really informative tutorial, def one of the best I've seen. Can I ask, would you then add reverb to the whole snare after that, or is what you've added sufficient. Thanks
Awesome tutorial! 😁

Awesome as always, Thank you. Btw Trash plugin is discontinued, just 10 days trial available with no option to buy it
hmm, using a sample or making your own. Making your own sounds very good :D Awesome tutorial. AGAIN!

Samples, Vital, Serum, Operator.. depends for which bit but all of those will also do the job 💖
Genius do most DNB producers use Ableton ? or is it a mixture Programe's and why do you choose ableton to say Logic is it cause you know it better.

If I understand what you've written... a lot of people use Ableton as it is the most advanced and user friendly DAW on the market presently. It has the newest update with the launch of Live 11 earlier this year. It is great not only for arrangement production but also for live performance. It's an incredibly powerful DAW.

@@BeckySaifMusic Ok seems you see ableton as the best daw for this modern age and genre very interesting what are your views of logic? excellent content please keep it coming?.
This is a very good tutorial! I only have 2 nitpicks though, even though they are subjective. Since about 2019 or so, the body of snares has gotten significantly shorter with a more pronounced pitch drop and related envelope, for a tighter sound that has still has body especially when mixed with a tuned acoustic snare. That way it takes up less space in the frequency and time realm, allowing the other instruments to have more space, since we will commonly sidechain the snare to the mid-range basses and other synth sounds. The other thing that sounds a bit off to me is that the transient was way too loud compared to the other elements. It can be lower in volume, especially if you add a transient shaper at the end of the processing chain.
