tuning made easy
Drum tuning is an esoteric art that can be difficult for even the most experienced of players. But: the importance of tuning cannot be overstated. Even the lowest-quality drums can sound 100% better with new heads that are well-tuned and dampened.
~ It's so much more satisfying to play a drumset that sounds amazing.
~ Tuning your drums will make you want to play them more.
After struggling with tuning for much of my career, I honed in on a virtually fail-safe method. I've now tuned ancient heads on the cheapest of drumsets, and pro-level backline kits at music festivals -- both sound fantastic using this technique.
