Snare Rattle (drum, bass, rock, amp, effect)

Our band had this problem and my Bass man knew little about sound.
So here's the secret find out using an eq, what tone is causing the rattle from the bass and drop that tone.
But here's a better idea.
Bass guys know very little about sound they just want the bass to pound the beat hard. What I did was try to balance his bass to get a very clear defined sound.
A great bass has a clear almost wood sound but electrified. You should be able to hear every string clear and clean, no muddy sounds. Bass doesn't have to be muddy, clean and perfect tone will help defeat about 75 % of your rattle.
