With the depth and body one would expect from a wood-shell snare drum, it also has the high-end ring that's more typical of a metal-shell drum --- and that helps the sound project.

The Steel Snare Drum
The drums response was instant, crisp, and clean. It also prossessd an exceptional dynamic range, from extremely loud to incredibly quiet. Its tone was open yet controlled, metallic but warm, and pleasantly dry. The drum's capacity for a cracking backbeat would make it ideal for playing chatter. Yet with its outstanding sensitivity it would also do well in orchestral settings. (It would be ideal for executing Ravel's "Bolero".)

The Maple Snare Drum
The maple snare really sang. Somewhat surprisingly,it boasted a slightly longer decay than its metal counterparts. This decay combined with a wide range of pleasant harmonics to create the drum's resonant sound. Yet the drum remained clear, without any loss of articulation in playing. The warm, throaty crack that come forth is everything you'd expect from a good wood snare. And building up the roar of a triple-forte buzz roll with this drum was something I could happily do all day.

Oil Finished Snare Drum

MO -1465 (6.5"x14")
Color : Walnut Oil Finish (Photo)
CANOPUS's oil finish snare drum has an additional layer in place of the covering. The sound of the drum is the best described as a crisp and sharp attack, but totally different from covered or lacquer finish snare drums. We use thicker ply American maple. Without sacrificing the quality, we have achieved a remarkably affordable price due to omission of the covering and lacquering process.

MFP Snare Drum (Oiled Maple w/Wrapping)
The MFP snare begins by applying oil to the base shell before attaching the covering material. This process controls unwanted high-pitched overtones to produce a deep wet sound ideal for rock drummers.

Mel Taylor Snare Drum
This is our tribute to the life of Mel Taylor. Mel Taylor snare drums are widely used and appreciated by many drummers as well as the Ventures fans. With an eight-hole die-casting hoop, you will have impeccable rim shot. Mel was well known for his unique snare drum sound and this drum was built with that sound in mind.
Mel-SN01.jpg It is the best snare drum that I have ever used. The tone quality is great, the hardware is excellent. Not only is the tone great, but it has a lot of volume, and is clean & clear. I used it for the first time this month in the studio, and everyone remarked how great it sounded.

  The guarantee card of snare drum is signed by Mel (copy) and his wife Fiona (original).

Lightweight hardware often gives impression that it is cheap and not functional and not durable enough. Canopus would present lightweight hardware with enough function and durability for professional use. This is an antithesis from Canopus that good hardware is always heavy-duty and multi-function.

Vintage Snare Wire

Needless to say, you would agree that a snare drum is the most important component in drum sounds, and the determinant factor of the snare drum is snare-wire.

However, this fact has not been fairly recognized until very recently except a few drummers.

In 1960, Ludwig and Slingerland manufactured what has now become the standard for good vintage wire.
Several manufacturers have tried to re-produce the sound .

After years of research, we have replicated the Slingerland wire taking into several factors into account such as material, spiral diameter and pitch.

We finally decided a core thickness of 0.5 mm and a spiral diameter of 1.35mm and a pitch of 3.4 mm.

2 types for your choice, Dry (DR) and Chrome plated (NP).
DR : Without plating (dry and crisp sound)
NP : Chrome-plated (reduced unwanted high pitch overtone,
yet rich and mild sound)
ZL : For Zelkova snare drum
