I come from guitar-land and I changed my strings monthly and / or before every show. Old strings on a guitar = dull, dead sound. Now, they are $5.40 a pack.
So, drum heads last soo much longer. I definitely would change mine before a recording session and since I have a standard setup the cost is cheap:
$26 for 3 tom batters:
http://www.amazon.com/Evans-Tompack-Coated-Standard-inch/dp/B000MFORYS
$30 for 3 tom resos:
http://www.amazon.com/Evans-Tompack-Clear-Standard-inch/dp/B000XTJJSW
Even with reso changes, it's still cheaper than my guitar string outlays (considering I was in a real active band). Let's not bring amp tubs into the picture @ $110 a year..
Drums aren't as bad as I thought.
I use the Meinl Cymbals version of them
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B079BSXDSD/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_m80wDb4N6RBDQ
They're round in shape just like the Onzow.
I don't know the specific contents that makes up the Onzow however both that and the drum dampeners are considered "soft gelatinous plastic". They both feel exactly the same and you can clean/reuse them. Both do the job with no harm to the stylus whatsoever👍🏻
I didn't learn anything until the end. At the end he tuned his snare another half-turn. I like it. I like really tight snares all the way around. I have a cheap snare: http://www.amazon.com/Mapex-Steel-Piccolo-Snare-13X3-5/dp/B004WBOA68/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1427605276&sr=8-3&keywords=steel+snare+drum
However, I made it tight as hell with this as the top snare head: http://www.amazon.com/Evans-Genera-Drum-Head-Inch/dp/B0002RZZCE/ref=sr_1_fkmr1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1427605346&sr=8-3-fkmr1&keywords=mapex+dry+snare+head
It does NOT sound like a pop...but it sounds aggressive as fuck. A flam sounds like a gunshot and anything else sounds awesome...to me. Let me know what you shredding metaldrummits think!
Before I order them (this might be a stupid question) they don't need to be tom specific heads do they? Would [this] (http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B0006UGERM/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=A3P5ROKL5A1OLE) work on a tom?
Batter and snare side
Admittedly, I'm playing in an 1800's era mill re-purposed for rehearsal rooms in the chilly Northeast. It gets as cold as Siberia in the winter during the days we're not there to put the space heaters on, and it gets as humid as a tropical forest in the summer. So.... yeah, I realize that's pretty bad (or maybe not necessarily?). But the snare has no cracks in it, and no obvious signs of warping. But of course, I'm no expert and I could be missing something.
