Curious if a Pork Pie or DW snare has a better recording sound anyone know? Sent from my DROID2 using Gearslutz.com App |

DW in a heartbeat! I have worked with Pork Pie (acrylic) snares a couple of times and have been very underwhelmed. Last drummer I recorded used a DW copper snare and it blew me away. Even the undersnare mic sounded great,warm and rich. I am also a big fan of the Tama Starclassic snare drums |

DW,on and off record. The two Pork pie snares I have encountered have been two of my least favorite drums |

Honestly, each of those brands has such a wide range of instruments it would be impossible to say one is 'better'. DW and Pork Pie both make some fantastic drums.
