Sound characteristics.
A snare drum has a very complex frequency signature. This makes it very difficult to get the desired sound. The Z-drums floating snare eliminates a few of the design flaws that hinder a conventional snare from sounding the best it can. Because this floating snare design has nothing attached to the wooden shell, not even an airhole grommet, the airflow inside the shell is unrestricted, and therefore the heads can resonate freely. Because the hoops are connected to each other, and not to the shell, each head only has one tension instead of 8 or 10, depending on the snare’s lug count.
Expect a powerful, articulate attack with a balanced sustain and a wide dynamic range. Perfect for drummers who seek a unique voice in their kit.
