first, have him tune the drum without the snares on. try to go for something with a good amount of resonance. once he's liking the initial tone of the drum, have him gradually tighten the snares on the bottom. a lot of people to go overboard with tightening their snares, which then "chokes" the drum...

i'll always try to get around full-on sound replacement, as i don't even own any software for it. my curiosity wondered what EA's take on it is. had they been all for it, i would have really considered obtaining drumagog or something of that sort for touch ups. i'll just stick to getting good natura...
