Assuming you're a normal player, and playing a full trap set, extremely noisy! Not only will you have the high frequencies to deal with (cymbals and snare) but, even worse the toms and kick drums will actually travel farther through the buildings structural members.

A band I used to be in sound proofed the walls of a garage (single family homes not an apartment). We even had people walk around the exterior to check for noise while we were playing. Nothing. The neighbors almost lynched us one night because the bass and drums traveled through the concrete floor!

Is a marching snare drum the same as a snare drum in a full drum kit?

Yes, except for size. Marching drums are larger (deeper) so they will move more air and make more noise since they are used outdoors.


What is best size of a snare drum and who would be best drum company?

I personally have a 14" Pearl Philharmonic Snare drum and I love it. It isn't as expensive as some of the other competing brands, and, if tuned correctly, it can sound just as good as any "higher-end" snare drum. Black Swamp is making beautiful snare drums right now, but they are pretty pricey. I believe 75% of the quality of a snare drum lies in the tuning of the drum. If you spend a decent amount of time tuning your snare, you can make lower cost drums sound just as good as expensive models. In general, however, if price is not the issue and you are looking for a quality orchestral snare, I would buy a 14" Black Swamp Snare Drum with a Di-Cast rim and a Sterns Calf Skin head!


What makes the snare drum sound?

It sounds like another person hitting a different person.


How do you make a drum make noise?

To make a sound with a drum, you beat it, tap it, strike it, hit it, pound it, or brush it. Drums consist of stretched membranes over an open cavity, such that striking the membrane causes a resonance. Drums can be struck with the hands, with drumsticks, or with brushes (as on a snare drum). The largest bass drums use either handheld mallets or mechanical beaters, which are activated by pedals.


What happens when you strike a drum pad?

It will make a noise. The pitch will depend on the type of drum.

How has the snare drum changed?

Well it has evolved from being only used as a marching snare in war to make its way in to music, spearheaded by jazz, the snare drum is now a necessary of every drum kit and concert band. Little known fact: before the snares of the snare drum were made of metal, drum makers used dried cats' intestines for the snares.


How does a Electronic Drum pad work?

You hit the pad and the electronics sense the impact, usually with an impact force sensor for different volumes, and the signal is sent to the soundboard via wire. On the soundboard there are multiple plug inputs. One for snare, bass drum, cymbols, etc. The "drum" itself doesn't make the noise but rather the input. You could plug a cymbol into the snare input and you would still get a snare sound. The soundboard just senses the initial impact and amplifies it as a drum piece.
