Күн бұрын

Don’t just reach for the tape/gel/muffling of choice. If you’re constantly frustrated by tom sounds then there’s a very real possibility that it’s due to the lack of love your resonant heads are receiving. This is more common than you might think- even with the top professionals and studios alike, and the first thing people reach for is some sort of muffling rather than a drum key. In this episode we demonstrate how to diagnose choked toms and fix the issue with tuning rather than tape.

Glad you enjoyed it. That said, muffled or or shortened sustain is just as valid as anything else given the right context and we’ll meet anyone outside on the alley way if they disagree. 😉 You’ll never catch us preaching a one-way approach to drum sounds here- that’s like walking into a conversation and only talking about yourself and ignoring the context of the discussion.

Absolutely the best video on the importance of the reso head tuned properly. Minor third above the batter captures the essence of the whole video which you had mentioned it within a few minutes. Well done as the precise pitch min 3rd statement made me realize you knew the physics of wave functions. You deserve the respect of any musicians you engage with on this point alone. To quote “A good drummer can make an average band sound much better, a bad drummer can destroy a band overall sound. It all starts with the drummer listening closely not only to his drum kit but as well as each other player in the band continuously interweaving the bands overall sound.

9:50: my strategy recently is to remove the batter head and hoop entirely, tune the reso so it’s maximizing the resonance of the drum itself, and only after that’s been executed correctly add the batter. It really helps with the coated batter heads that work best with brushes.

Great to have my suspicions confirmed. I always tune reso heads slightly higher than batter side, except on snares where I tune the reso head even more and then adjust the snare wires and top head to suit whatever I’m playing. But I’ve always had some trouble tuning rack toms especially 8-12 inch toms. They either ring out far too much or don’t ring out nearly enough. There’s a very distinct sweet spot somewhere in between, but with the reso head still being tighter than batter. Great video, great production, great playing and engineering, and all around very helpful and well made. Cheers from Texas!

Really well done! I decided to watch the video because over the past few years I've gone from the extra tape and muffling to playing (pretty much) wide open. It is an absolute joy to play "clean" drums with no tape...and better rebound. I have a moon gel on a few toms, but that's it. I was also frustrated that my O-ring dampeners would get kinked during packing and travel (if not lost altogether), so now I don't have to deal with that either. Your video confirms a lot of things for me. Again, well done. I think a lot of other players will benefit from your wisdom!

Great video! Very helpful information. I've been playing for about 13 years, and I've found that I prefer tuning the batter heads based on what kind of attack they give me. I love a "slappy" sort of attack on a low-tuned (but not too low) single-ply coated head. Then I tune the resos a perfect fourth above the batters. I used to tune each drum to specific notes, but these days I go completely based on feel and natural tone of each drum.

Awesome job you included just the right amount of topics didn't get too deep into either one. I restore drum kits and other musical antiquities, knowing the correct tuning, the correct head, and the correct differential between heads cannot be overstated. iT. I tune Tom's top to bottom with either the native shell tone or more often call to the Post. I like mine the same if I want a shorter tone I use studio rings, this gives me both options without having to re tune. I played around with reso heads on snares only to return to standard Remo res. You articulated extremely intelligent and spot on correct information. Cheers

My drums are 1961 Oaklawn Camco Ambassadors in the rare Burgundy sparkle colour, I’ve owned them since 1990. 12”, 14”, 20”. My method is simple: coated Remo Emperors on top and bottom, tuned to the natural note of the shell. Done. I’ve had countless drummers say to me “if you ever want to sell these, call me first!” They just sound that good. I attribute the sound to the old school 30 degree bearing edges, and the fact that the wood is 60 years old. I love my old kit.

I've always struggled with tuning the heads just right, never even thinking about at what pitch range they have a clear line of communication. When I do get the right sound, I go so long without tuning them again that I forget what I did to achieve that sound the first time, lol. This was super helpful, thank you! I only recently learned about how different the drums sound when you're sitting at them vs across the room. So you touching on that subject really helped paste it into my conscious when i try to tune. I use a Tascam to record about 5' away, so that would explain why my toms sometimes can't reach it.

I LOVED this video!!! I have been searching for an in-depth tom-tuning video FOREVER, including in Drumeo's member's area, and this is by far the best I have ever watched, My toms have been bothering me a lot lately, so what do I do? Avoid playing them? Does that make any sense? Nope. I am super excited to get to work! Thanks!

Another excellent video. This might make me boring, but I always tune the batters and resonant heads to the same note. I like hearing that single note, with a rich fundamental, rather than any kind of harmony from each drum. I’ve experimented, but over the last 30 years or so of playing double-headed toms (I used Rotos when I was young), I just always come back to the same thing. To me, that’s also the maximum resonance you can get-which is generally what I’m after.

Excellent video guys! My floor tom would ring & ring... ended up placing an old Evans EC-2, with the internal rings, and that helped tremendously. This video has me re-thinking if that is just a band-aid and I should start from scratch to correct the work around.

Great info as usual! Just put Reso7s + UV2s on the kit. Small adjustments on either can change the tone and or ruin the tone. Love the tip to start with the batter tone and feel you desire then match the reso. From there stop or adjust up and or down! Another top notch video!

The biggest difference between my second and third kit was the tom sound. Went from a Prestige Session Select kit to a maple Gretsch kit. The tom sounds were SO different. I was blown away at the tones the Gretsch toms could provide.

Man with just the g1s in the beginning, that floor tom sounds GREAT, especially when you put a bit more force into your hit!

I appreciate what is being demonstrated here. I am always looking for that best ear sound, and frequently I'm tuning my toms to get a John Bonham sound using recommended frequency differences between the batter and reso heads. It definitely is frustrating trying to find that sound. You did a great job explaining why I may not be able to get the sound from my particular drums versus another one's drums.
