## Overview

The SNAREWEIGHT M80 is a premium, USA-made snare drum tone control dampener featuring four magnetic dampening settings from mild to heavy, a patented clip for secure attachment to most metal hoops, and genuine leather construction. Designed to reduce unwanted resonance while preserving brightness, it offers quick adjustability and fits a wide range of snare sizes, making it the go-to choice for drummers seeking professional sound control without sacrificing tone.

## Description

After years of continuous development with the patented solid brass Snareweight #1, 2, 3, 4 and 5, we are now proud to present the NEW Snareweight M80 (medium to heavy dampening), the perfect "starter" damper and the newest member of the Snareweight family. The M80 is engineered to control the resonance without sacrificing the brightness of the drum. One M80 has 4 different dampening settings: mild, medium, , heavy and off. Remember the M80 fits any snare drum size;(8",9,10,12,13,14 etc.) It also presents some weight on the head (more than tape, plastic etc) which helps shorten the low frequency decay while keeping the drum bright and real. Dampen in a snap or disengage even faster with the on/off feature. If you want a dead drum, this one is NOT for you. Works with triple flange hoops, die cast, angel hoops, true hoops, brass hoops, 1/4" wood, and sound arc hoops. NOT RECOMMENDED FOR S-HOOPS or Tama Arc Hoops. Leather thickness does vary between 1.5mm to 2mm. For help with this product please contact us anytime at info@SnareWeight.com.

Review: Works well! - I purchased one which sounded good on snare so I tried it on the floor tom. Sounded good there too so I bought two more! Magnet tabs allow for adjustable dampening at four levels: full, 2/3, 1/3, or off.
Review: It does work quite well - I was initially hesitant due to the price but I saw quite a few people rave about this. I have been using the remo tone control rings for my snare for decades. They are cheap, guaranteed to work and you can even make them from an old drum head to save money. The issue is they can sometimes dampen a bit too much if you like a little ring. Also you have to tape them to your head in case you accidentally fling it off with your stick. The snare weight seems to have just enough dampening and it clips on the head. You can reduce dampening by folding the sides to the center with magnets, but I find that it's perfect (for me) open. My snare is a Ludwig Universal 6.5 x 14 black nickel over brass, so I want a taste of that brass ring without the overtone and the snare weight really worked for me.

## Features

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can i attach it to my timbales?? Or is it only for snares??**
A: These are pretty much for any drums, although the M80 is probably best on a snare drum. They have smaller versions that work great on toms and would probably be great for timbales, too.

**Q: Does this work on die-cast hoops?**
A: Yeah, it’s pretty adjustable. It can “grab” the hoop edge a few ways.

**Q: Can this be mounted to a snare resonant/side head? Or just the batter?**
A: Due to the design it kind of relies on gravity to keep the muffler working correctly and it attaches itself to the rim. I would say that it is best suited for “batter side” only.

**Q: Has anyone tried using 2 (two) of these on a snare drum? At church, we're trying to lower snare volume significantly & turn up the other mic'd items.**
A: I think using a Big Phat Snare Drum Ring would accomplish this much better. It is a simple heavy "zero ring" type of thing which lowers and focuses the volume and attack of the drum. You can even get the Big Phat Snare Drum rings in 12", 13" & 14" and some have no center hole if you really need volume reduced significantly.
