How does the sound of the snare drum prouced?
The snare drum is different to normal drums, as it has two skins. Under the bottom on are a series of chain-like-things. (Sorry for not being more specific). When you hit the top skin, the bottom one vibrates making the chains rattle. The snare is the "chain-like-thing" referenced above and it really isn't chain-like at all. A snare is several long, thin, metal strands with a very tight spiral pattern. They are stretched along the resonant head (bottom head) of the snare drum. The vibrations of the snare against the head produces the snare drum's signature sound. The snare can be tightened or loosened to change this sound from a sharp crack to a soft fizzle.

It really depends on the type fo snare drum. For example parade drums are meant to be loud, but piccolo is a quieter drum due to its size. In the drum family, yes it probably is the loudest in perspective, but depending on how hard you hit it, it could be the bass drum as well.

It can be played in different ways, marching style which is more rudimental (look up the "26 Standard Snare Drum Rudiments"), clave style which the terms would be called "rim knocks", "rim taps", or "cross rim" depending on where/who you learned from, drum kit style which is where it is primarily used to strenghthen the back beats, and in the fashion of a tom when flipping the snare switch off. The list aboves shows how snare drum is often played but really the snare drum as well as any other drum or cymbal can be played however you want it to be, no one can set the limit on your creativity but you.
