"Our second rim click example is going to play a straight four on the snare drum except instead of playing it on the head we are going to play it as a rim click and that sounds like this.

If you are in the right spot it really should sound good. I'm playing really really softly here with my hand. I'm using almost no strength but the quality of the sound is good."
