This paper studied how the volume, tone, and envelop change according to the change in the size and mass of the vibration control device used in the snare drum among the musical instruments composing the drum set. The purpose is to provide information on the snare tone to be expressed by providing the characteristics of the sound derived according to the change of the vibration control device to drummers and sound engineers who play using the snare drum. Improving the ability to use music can have a positive effect on improving the expressive ability of performers and sound engineer depending on the genre and style of music. As a result of the experiment, there was no change in loudness in the environment where the area and mass were changed using the vibration control device, the change in frequency response was insignificant, and the length of the envelope was greatly changed. In the course of the experiment, the tone of the snare drum actually heard was very large. In particular, there was a large tone change in the experimental environment due to the change in area rather than mass. As a result, the vibration control device is substantially only involved in the envelope, and the snare drum has a short envelope, so unlike some perceptions that the tone generated in the front part of the envelope is more important, the back part of the envelope also has a great influence on the tone perceived by humans.
