  • Well most of us are fascinated by music specially the hard core beats from a professional Drummer can't be forgotten by any of us

    Well I recently found that Drum kits made by different makers use different wood and has some change in tones and the sustain they provide

    Any particular reason for that

    Birch wood Has very light weight and the sustain harmonics were really low
    Another drum had heavier wood set and that had greater depth But lesser sustain in it

    Is there any relationship between the type of wood and the wave reflection (Sound) by them

    Different types of woods may have different densities.

    i am not an expert at sound engineering and stuff, but from what i feel, that when a sound wave hits the wood, some part of it is absorbed by the wood and some part of it is reflected back.

    the amount of absorption and reflection ma depend on the densities, of the different types of wood.

    I think the malleabilitiy of wood makes the manufacturers to select particular wood.

    Most of the drums have standard sizes and I am not sure about this property playing any role

    Cos mostly the wood is compressed from inside to the outside while making a drum So I am not sure about this

    #-Link-Snipped-# too many "may" in your answer Is there a realationship between the density of material and intensity they absorb
