    Snare ringing?

    o rings always get messed up or something....try that moon gel stuff it works great(if its the same thing i'm thinking of) you just put it on the drum, any drum and it'll just stick there. I've also seen people put them on cymbals to control volume and tone control.

    cymbal cracking...they all do it...all the time. how do i stop it?

    also, its not how HARD you hit the cymbal, it's how fast. Try getting better technique from your wrist and fingers and you'll be amazed at how loud you play without lifting your arm up. If you're going for "emotion" then just look like you're playing hard....give them a hard core face or...

    Blood Sugar Sex Magic

    seems like a lot of good bands are turning pop....to a certain extent....i feel that bssm was definately rhcp greatest album and shows just how great they can play and was a step away from their other albums...when californication came out, i figured it was their way of showing all those "pop"...

    What's a good, crisp slash cymbal?

    another way is just listen to some of your favorite drummers, if there is a particular splash sound you hear, go check out the ones they have. I particularly like the 8" A Custom Splash From zildjian and the Avedis 10"

    cymbal cracking...they all do it...all the time. how do i stop it?

    i second that.....cymbals are not meant to be broken.....if you've breaking them for this long....and keep buying new ones....well you have to learn how to hit them. I've broken one splash before....and since then i've worked really hard on stick placement and crash motion. Just "smacking" the...
