Tune-bot snare drum tuned to notes with settings 

That’s a very good sounding snare. Wow.

Great clip, thx alot

Subscribed! I can't thank you enough, this video helped me finally get my '65 Acrolite to sound right.

Would you consider your tuning 4D / 4G, as a high snare tuning? Most times its always only talked about low / med / high....but where starts or ends these categories more or less?

I wouldn't think 11 Hz would make that much of a difference! I've usually done very similar to what you're doing, 400/300 batter. I've also done 400/316. I will definitely try 390/300, and I'm also going to try 376/266. Thanks for the info man, and great sounding snare!

Dude. You nailed it. I have been playing around with different tuning for several months, and up until now I couldnt get the sound that I wanted. I will continue to tune my drums exacty at these frequencies. Thank you man!!!

probably the best tune bot video! THANK YOU FOR MIC'ING THE SNARE! YOU THE F**KIN MAN! Also actually, it would be epic if you could do a video showcasing a before and after on toms (so tuned and untuned)

👏😏 that snare sound good, thanks

Dude thank you for posting this, I was using the tunebot suggestions for the snare and it wanted the reso head at 398 for a perfect 5th. This may work for lower notes idk the but when I hit the drum it wasn't making the right note I was going for probably because it was being choked. I like a nice medium high note produced probably a little lower than what you're going for. I looked up the fundamental note setting of a tom that produces a g (3rd octave). And just tweaked the reso and batter tension frequencies to find a perfect fourth. I came up with 291 batter and 388 reso head. 388/291=1.33, which is what you should be going for in a snare not really a specific note just a perfect interval instead although these frequencies do produce a fundamental g which is nice.

My comment was actually meant for the video where you tuned all of the toms. However, this video was very helpful as well.

Whats with the snare wire? Complete tight?

Nice video man, just got a tune bot and have been working with it a bit.

This is an awesome video. Any suggestions/settings for kick drum?

This was pretty awesome man. Thats pretty clever

What note do you use in the Snare ? G or C ? D ? Regards from Portugal

I have a pearl free floating snare its 14x6.5 and its shell is Maple / mahogany .it has a beautiful tone to the shell..The bottom snare side head sounds best at 380-385 to me that is tight and sounds better than whan its at 390-400 that just seems to diminish the warmth and tone of that drum..when i bring it down to the 380's range its much nicer and still has Increadabel crack to it. Anything over 388 just seems to much.

Hi mate just got a new tune bot studio and can’t get batter to read over 290. After 290 tightening it doesn’t give a higher reading. Am I dumb here or?

So in the table/chart is the batter head on the left?!

How would this compare to a 6.5x14 maple snare drum? I’m going to try it tomorrow.

Can you please suggest what for snare 13x7 sonor maple...your recomendation...thanks a lot man Great video btw

Thanks for a great video. Your toms sound great also! Did you use the perfect 4th on them as well?

Awesome video! Great explaining on how the different intervals affect the sound. I usually don't experiment too much with tuning and just tune the same all the time(Usually a perfect 4th) but now I know what a fifth would be like and I might try it as well if I need to cut through even more. Btw what snare are you using, how would a steel snare affect the sound(Like in the video compared to ex a wooden snare)?

First of all, thank you for a good video. I'm using a tunebot to tune my bottom lugs but no matter how tight I tighten it up What is the problem?

thing cant show 4d and freq at same time huh

What happens when you hit the Center of the drum? Different note I bet

What numbers would you suggest for a power piccolo?

Nice sounding snare! What make and model is it?

I keep getting wrong readings when tuning the reso head. Do you know what the problem could be?

thank you! Does the same tuning (fourths) work for the entire drum kit? (toms and kick)

Good video. One note, you can have a major 3rd or minor. No perfect 3rd.

I feel like It takes forever when cranking my res head past 220hz on the lugs... am I suppose to keep turning them all the way to almost 400? It just seems like its outrageously tight and not okay...

Sorry. To these exact frequencies.

Could the reso of a 13 snare go higher than a 14 snare?

You should forget about all that stuff and just tension your drums to where they sound good, and feel good to play. It really doesn't matter what notes you believe your heads are tuned to. Nobody knows, or cares what the notes are that you think you have dialled in. The truth is, you don't tune drums, you tension them, but this is just my way of thinking. You're free to do whatever works for you.
