No way! The 2nd main snare and the first 2 toms sound great, but the last tom and the floor tom are not tuned well, ESPECIALLY the floor Tom. Flat , loose and a bad overtone.
I lucked across a mini set with Keller shells like old DW kits ( do DW still use Keller ? ) it’s a 20x8 12x6 14x8 and these drums sing and can sound huge tuned right ¡
@@albiewitz2686ah it’s the trend now to have nice intervals between the rack toms and to have the floor Tom act as a second bass drum… I’m not sure why.
I'll never be a drummer, and I'll never be in a band, but I am fascinated by the variables. The floor Tom sounding like a second bass drum may be the trend, but I've always liked it. However, I prefer less overtones. Some people will tune their drums individually. Others will tune their drums to a specific cord. This is subject to your preference and capability (acustics is art). After that, it depends on what type of drums, electrons, the band as a whole, the song, acoustics, and technician? I copy what I can not hear. After deveolping my ear, I choose. I like both heads with the same note and all edges tuned as closely as possible. B key major mode like churchill downs. My Question as a beginner: Do you select drums for each song, or (crazy ?) do you tune your drums to each song(😳)? I'm assuming you select certain drums to play for certain songs, then flip preset switches per key change. The other question is, can (pro/ amateurs)a gig be played in one key?
I don’t look at it that deep. When I tune I try to achieve 3 things, I tune to where I think the drum is comfortable, feels good for me, and sounds good for whatever genre I am playing. I tune different for different songs if I am recording. But when I am playing a live gig, most times I’m not playing a bunch of different genres on one gig, and if I am… then I’ll tune a to happy medium that fits all songs for that gig
Listen kid… you don’t know what you’re talking about. This guy knows what he’s doing. And what you said is so wrong. There’s a perfect amount of buzz and loosening only certain lugs is so bad for the rim. You try again loser
Man .. What Hz have your main snare and 2nd (top-bottom) it's amazing. Maybe if you want give me all setup Hz i will pay You. I subscribe for now. why haven't I seen you before you are greath.
Your idea of perfection and mine are different. The second/main snare sounds great, but I just hate that kind of tom sound. I like the redonant head tuned a third higher than the batter.
