Hi, I've recently been getting into tapping. I have a simple question, when I tap are the rest of the strings supposed to ring out or am I hitting the fretboard too hard? When I hit it more lightly the rest of the strings don't start ringing. Is this a sound that would be covered up by a band?

Do I tap hard or do I tap lightly and turn my volume up for it?
