i just bought a new tom to go with my set. i like the toms sound. but the thing is, is that it makes my snare rattle like crazy. i have tried multiple things to fix it. replace the head because it had stock heads. moved it farther from the snare. turned the snare drum so the snares werent right next to its resonator head. it still rattles. what should i do?

TUNE ONE OR THE OTHER UP OR DOWN AND THIS SHOULD FIX YOUR ISSUE. KEEP THE TOMS TOP AND RESO HEADS CLOSE, AND TIGHTER ON THE SNARE BOTTOM

The tom might be tuned the same pitch as the snare?

Yea, the tom resonates at the same frequency as the snare. What i did to fix this is put a thicker resonate head on the bottom of the tom. It makes it have a deeper sound but it makes the rattle stop. Personally I replaced all my resonate heads with 2ply heads. I like the deeper sounding toms anyways.
