[QUOTE="John Roberts, post: 98033, member: 126"] Re: Why did I piss off the headline drummer? I won't argue about what it sounds like, but to discuss the mechanics of what is going on with drum head edge damping, the lower the resonances the less head movement is occurring near the rim edge. The maximum fundamental (thump sound) movement occurs at the mid point of the drum head. The higher order the resonance the closer to the rim edge that major anti-nodes (local peaks in head movement) occur. While the higher resonances occur all across the drumhead damping them around the rim edge damps them all. So a damping ring will preferentially damp the higher resonances more than lower resonances because there is more head movement from them bumping into the damping ring and losing energy. Do what sounds good to you... I just try to make sense of why things do what they do. JR [/QUOTE]
