    You can make a bass drum very resonant, but most drummers keep a kit bass fairly staccato. Especially with a double bass. Otherwise you’re going to sound like you’re doing a roll on a timpani.

      I’ve usually seen “double bass” used to refer to the string instrument, also called the contrabass, upright bass, or just a bass.
