Well, for those of you who don't have the money to dish out for a pad that has some snare sound to it you might like this. I was hacking around last night and i saw a wal-mart plastic bag and decided to see what would happen if I put the pad in the bag. Well I put the pad in the walmart bag and then put in another walmart bag inside on top the pad and tadaaaaa! Might not be the best way, but hey it gives it a snare sound to it. FYI I only tried this with my vicfirth double sided pad. Happy bag drumming! oh yeah and the looser the bag the more snarey it sounds so don't put it tight against the pad.

How interesting. I never would have thought Wal-Mart would come in handy in terms of playing music... Good Job!

And why would you want your pad to sound like a snare?

Does it have to be a Wal-Mart bag. I have a Target bag, but I don't think it will work.

Just an update on this new pit instrument, I know for a fact that Target, Kohls, and grocery bags will work also. You need to experiment to find the sound your looking for. I am now taking a big plastic shopping bag and working on tuning the bag to resemble a bass drum.............to be continued.
