Dave Pauli, an HSUS senior director for wildlife response, calls control or catch poles "the most misused animal handling tool in the industry." One of my pet peeves is walking into a music store and finding all of the snare wire tension really high, so that if you attemped a closed roll, it sounds like a tight tom - no buzz at all! But I don't usually like really loose wires either. It's hard to say what my favorite sound is, it's always governed by the music I'm playing. That's what I've done, although I'll admit to using only 7 or 8 snares in regular rotation. Those who can afford multiple snares are able to easily get multiple sounds. Consider the effects that edges, shell thickness, shell material, shell depth & diameter, hammering, head types, hoop weight and material, number of lugs, lug mass, the number of wire strands and their material, the tension of those wires, weight of the stick, where on the head we hit the drum, how we strike it (sometimes catching some hoop), and the amount of muffling can have on a snare! The snare has the most potential variations on its sound, and the one drum that drummers and engineers tend to focus on the most regarding those variations.
