Not that I have the crackliest snares ever, but I'm learning.

My icon was neutral. I didn't come at you sarcastically.

Starting from scratch, hurray, but you didn't say that at the beginning and the op would have never know that

So if I take a snare off a break from some record from the 60s, that's compressed already?
