    Hi greg54,

    It definitely sounds like a sample you could A. Capture the intro and make it a sample from the YouTube song or B. If you have the electronics kit or any snare possibly you might be able to tune it way up and add some reverse reverb. Or even scan the internet for ’80s snare samples.. hope that helps (-: Jeff

    The snare is going through a gated reverb. Put the snare (can just be a Ludwig Supraphonic) through the 80’s Reverb plug-in followed with a Noise Gate. You will probably want a compressor to level the dynamics and shape the transients as well.

    I just used the Ludwig Supraphonic, and that pretty much gets me what I’m looking for.  Thanks again!

    That was pretty much the snare drum of the 80’s. 🙂

    Add some compession, reverb and noise gate and you should have your desired sound.

    Ok ok – we’re seeing a lot of questions/video’s regarding snare drum sound and tone.
    My question is – what’s your favourite snare sound on a recording? Studio or Live.

    For me, this all depends on the song, the drummer, and the producer/engineer.
