How can I get my snare to not sound so... dead?
I don't think it is my snare. I have a stewart copeland signature snare. I want it to sound like this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VezA8XDBf4E
Instead, mine sounds very dead. I had the remo emperor head (sounded dead), and now the evans powercenter reverse dot. I have evans hazy 300 as the resonant. I've experimented with different tunings, but that just changes the tone. It still sounds FLAT!
How can I make it sound more lively? Which heads do you recommend, how to tune the batter/resonant, etc.
Thanks in advance!
another examples of what I am trying to achieve:
