[@kjeason6508]

One of the best realistic tuning videos I’ve seen. And I’ve watched a lot. Very practical

[@colesisler582]

Every single drum, drummer and front of house dude is different and learning to tune by ear is the way to go. Trial and error is often the best way to get the “perfect” tone.

[@Jayplaysdrums_]

Those room mics though! MASSIVE!

[@morganl2629]

Nice video I loved that gospel sounds!!

[@timothyshibu3098]

Yessirrr issa bout to start

[@davidhudspeth10]

great video fam! can you show us how you tuned that “secondary” snare

[@ARDrummer]

Great upload/info! Nice sounding snares!

[@abrahamramirez1487]

Can you do a video of you tuning the toms

[@guitaristbiker]

that black widow is where it's at.....CRACKIN'

[@Nicooooo21]

The black widow is an all-maple shell. It doesn't have walnut in it. Just wanted to point that out. Awesome video though, bro!

[@abrahamiturralde2927]

More how to videos or tricks and tips

[@firsttakepodcast4932]

Can you make a video explaining different types of drumsticks and also your preferences and recommendations.

[@brandonphillips3711]

Drum sticks are 100% player preference. Every player likes different ones, Find the ones you like and use them

[@TiktokersPh]

Godbless You

[@breakthroughworshipmusicmi8530]

Don't think tweaker is a bad thing lol

[@sebas.zgdrums]

Dani, por favor incluye subtítulos español en tus videos, no soy muy experto con el ingles :(

How to fix snare wire buzzing

[@joegeronda]

❤️🥁🇵🇭

[@ronaldflores2427]

How can I improve the speed on my right foot ?

[@samcompton1493]

lots of practice and playing faster songs and staying in the same rhythm of the song

[@ronaldflores2427]

Sam Compton , thanks for that ! 👌

[@thatguy4643]

Hey, there a lot of great videos about this on Drumeo on KZbin

[@AP-nm1ek]

KkRL pattern over the toms helped me a lot. Play it to a metronome and steadily increase the speed.

[@stevemendez3169]

LMFAOO

[@MrE1981]

Do you have to constantly wave your hands about. Man you just don't stop. I'm out.
