Tuning Toms To Exact Notes - Is It Necessary?

[@RobBeatdownBrown]

*Let me just say for the record that I DO NOT condone trollin’ of any sort ✋🏾😑 But I kinda had fun doing this one 😏 Enjoy the video!*

[@Tekkerue]

Drums don't care about your tuning, change my mind. 😏😂

[@dtsdigitalden5023]

It's an OCD thing. COVID had me doing some repainting, ergo removing light switch covers. Putting them back, I turned all the screws vertically. Just a little touch nobody (but me) would notice. It's a difference that doesn't make a difference. I hear you brother, and I also "get" tuning drums to a particular chord. Cymbals too; I'm always amazed when cymbals match the key of the song! Does it need it? Nah. It's the playing that matters anyway.

@Rob Brown 6'28'' Laughed my ass off!!

[@jantorsteinklaussen6158]

I totally agree with you. But I have to say I wish you would tune your rack toms just a tad higher, but that's just me. Btw Still wondering about how you hooked up the ninth mic to the mixer, if you don't mind 👍👍👍

Rob, that intro just about killed me. I was laughing so hard , I missed the first 2 mins. of the video. I have a D.W. kit and I've never tuned it to the notes on the inside of the shell. I got a new Gretsch USA Custom kit last weekend. No notes on the inside of the shell, just the gray sealer. I've been tuning my drums using the finger in the middle of the head, and tightening the tension rods until the wrinkles are gone. like you show in a previous video. Works great every time. Thanks Rob for all your great videos!!!

[@marniewalinga]

The note on the inside of a DW shell is there to tune the resonant head to that note for the best shell resonance. So its not about tuning the note of the drum to the note thats on the inside of the shell.

[@toebee1952]

Sadly doesn't work with thicker coated heads like Aquarian texture coated, because you don't see the wrinkles.

I’m fifty years old and I’ve been playing drums most of my life. This is one of the best channels on KZbin. I really enjoy Rob’s playing, teaching, input, and enthusiasm. Another quality video. Thank you.

[@finglasvillage]

I’m 50 years old and I just started playing a year ago. This lad is the only one I tune my drums too so ya your right?? I spent nearly 48 hrs solid trying to tune my drums on KZbin, then I found this lad, ffs 48 hrs I was bolloxed and me drums sounded like arse.

[@pyromaestro]

I'm 39 (not a drummer) bought my 10yr old son a gently used Ludwig element kit & put new batter heads on it & spent days going from video to video getting conflicting info on this subject, downloaded tuning apps & drove myself mad just wanting the kit to b right so it would be good for him to learn on & exciting to play. Found this channel from recommendations on Reddit & within an hour had everything sorted & sounding great, the snare was my biggest hurdle but now it's good just a touch of unwanted ring that a single moongel took care of. If not for this channel I'd still be pulling my hair out & my son wouldn't be enjoying his new kit. 🙏

"I don't care what your grandmom told you, SHE WAS WRONG! " Lol You craked me up with that one... 🤣

[@SkillensMusic]

“Nobody cares!” - My all time favorite reason of them all!! Love it! It is absolutely the truth!! I love the dig on DW too. Having toured the factory and talked to John Good and a few of the folks who build them, the purpose of that stamp is so you know the primary pitch of the drum shell without anything added. You know when your tuning a Tom and you hit that “sweet spot” where the shell just comes alive and sings? You are near that core note and the frequencies are just working better than the rest of the range. That so called “sweet spot” and the core note of the shell are somewhat related. But that’s all there is to it. As you said; there’s a range. And it is absolutely true that nobody cares!! Lol... Keep it focused on rhythm!!

[@MikeBritton138]

[@queenpurple8433]

I care though

[@DG-sf9ei]

Agreed, get em tuned in the sweet spot so they all sound good amongst another and play. Nothing will improve your sound more than working on yourself and with others, instead of an object.

[@sbiegs3885]

That sweet spot depends on the natural frequency of the room too.

It goes back to what you said in another video. "It's not the drums that sound good. It's me." 100% true! I could sit on your set and still sound like an amateur, because that's exactly what I am. And you could sit on my set and sound like a professional, because that's what you are. Great video and thank you very much...

[@rong8280]

So, you're telling me all the time I've spent developing the C flat infrared helical signature from my 13" rack tom was in vain? And all I really had to do was relax, have fun experimenting and use a little common sense (with a little guidance from BeatDown)? Joking aside, I did try pitch tuning many years ago and learned quickly that it was not worth the effort. What a pain in the keester for such an insignificant result. Not to mention that I had no clue what notes to even try tuning them to. Thanks for another great vid!

Rob - My first introduction to you was your video, "TUNE YOUR TOMS QUICK & EASY!! - TOM TUNING 2018 WORKSHOP". More than removing my frustration as a new drummer not knowing how to to tune my kit and the science lesson a well meaning drummer friend extended, it gave me lasting confidence to tune all my drums and the ability to relate to the excellent points you make here. Great job.

Dude, I SO ENJOYED your take on that whole thing! Not only were you SPOT ON, but very entertaining as well. I got the biggest kick out of some of your analogies.

[@barrybebenek8691]

Agree with ya brother. It just doesn’t matter. Early in my playing ‘life’, I tuned to notes for a few years. Man it takes a long time. Then realized that a drum shell has a resonant-sweet spot. THAT is where that thing will sing, regardless of note. (Which can be quite a large range). Make them sound good from one tom to the next, and in turn your kit will sound kick-ass on its own. 🇨🇦👍🏼

[@abheceshabemuskk3531]

This

[@Samos12]

I 100% agree with you. The only thing that confuses me, is... Why does my set sound so good when they are tuned to set frequencies (220 Hz, 330 Hz) and intervals (4ths, 5ths, etc)? I totally agree with your logic, but for an ordinary person like me, tuning to tensions/pitches with a drum tuner, really does make it generally easier to get a consistent sound...

[@jwebby85]

100% correct. Especially about the "Nobody Cares". Tune according to what you like to hear, and in the way that's going to get you there the fastest. i recently changed the heads on the church kit last week for service recording. Took me about 20 minutes to remove all 3 old heads, place the new heads, give them a little stretch, and tune them up to my desired pitches. 20 minutes to reskin the entire kit (minus the kick drum. That one is still sounding amazing) and my sound guy, who also happens to do sound semi-professionally and does recordings all the time, said "The drums sound amazing. I can't wait to record them". Tuning drums is not rocket science. Make sure you're getting a clear tone, and simply your 10 inch tom should be a higher pitch than your 12 and 16.

[@raybennett8399]

Well said I had a moment of insanity I was thinking of buying a tuning toolbut I thought to myself I'm just tuning for my room not for a gig.I found your tutorials for tuning snare Tom Tom's floor Tom's and kick drums are absolutely what I needed. Thank you for the video.

[@geraldm7435]

I totally agree! And really laughed out loud in several spots in this video... totally loved the tuning intro to the video! 🤣😂😅😆🤣

[@musicmatty67]

Beautiful drums and great playing. I do disagree somewhat with what you’re saying. First off, I would say any instrument is melodic in it’s own way. A French horn, a guitar and a piano are all melodic but very different. Whether or not the sound of the Tom rings out for two seconds or just a fraction of a second, it’s still striking a pitch frequency from the initial attack. I think it just comes down to a matter of taste and preference. Once the toms opens up and starts to resonate, there is a variance of notes to be had in there before it starts to be over tightened and choke out. I’ve tried tuning both ways with one being just where the Tom starts to resonate and the other with finding an exact pitch note. It seems like you’re never more than just a quarter turn at most from landing on an exact pitch note… So why not? I have found that once the Tom starts to open and resonate, it’s very easy to find the pitch note of E, Ed, and F’. I experimented with this and I tuned my snare to E, then my 10 inch Tom to A, my 12 inch Tom to E, and my 14 inch Tom to B, with my kick drum at E. When I did this, what I noticed immediately was, that striking two Toms together they sounded very musical and evenly spaced. I pose this question to everyone who reads this… If it’s important to tune a Tom to itself and that all the lugs are evenly tensioned so they produce the same tone at all corners, How much better would the whole kit sound if all the toms were tuned to a corresponding pitch with one another regardless of how long the initial tone lingers ? If drums aren’t musical, then why is it important to find the same pitch at all corners of a Tom with the lugs? Toms can still resonate even if the lugs are unevenly pitched….yet, Everyone strives to get the same pitch tone at every lug.

[@theghostofsw6276]

Of course tunings matter. There's NO argument. These room temp IQ arguments get me everytime...lol. Guaranteed....the sound engineer, who muffled this guy's drums in the studio, did it because he doesn't know how to tune properly.

[@larkstonguesinaspic4814]

I always have a clear idea of what toms should sound like compared to eachother based on thousands of records and live shows that I heard and I just tune until I reach those notes.

[@therev9866]

Thats what I like about your videos. You dont make a rocket science out of everything when it can be done much more the simpler way with the same endproduct. Just like your drum tuning videos, nice and simple with the result the most are looking for not like other complicated videos that make you wanna just leave haha.

Your last reason was perfect. I used similar response when ask if I tune my toms to specific note. I was a CB keek back in the day and like using CB codes to reply to questions the were dubious at best. When ask if I tuned to exact note I would respond " that's a big 10/28 on that good buddy" which translate..." obviously you've mistaken me for someone who gives a s..t"😉🎼🎶😎

[@RobBeatdownBrown]

It’ll always be a ridiculous idea to me, man. Regardless of who’s tryin to sell it

[@JamieDrumz]

Another superb video! Couldn’t agree more. Once I started using your tuning method I’ve never looked back

[@MrConfo]

Thanks for this relevant approach that demistify drum tuning, it really helps to turn the keys without mind complications and more than everything, it goes straight to the point. I'm sure this kind of mindset is also a huge source of freedom and happinness when playing, which certainly makes us sound better or at least feel true authentic good vibes, kind of essence of drumming. Your snare sounds so good.

[@derrickfulton7116]

I do use a tunebot and tune to a specific resonance on each tom and a set interval. I do this to eliminate competing frequencies and minimize sympathetic snare buzz and to have systematic way to keep the interval range between Tom's consistent. It is kind of pain staking, but I like the tone I get. I completely agree that it is silly to think that it is melodic or that it has to be a set note. You are absolutely right about range within each tom and I liked the fact that you lead with the snare and work around that, not the the other way around. Love your videos.

[@eddiekidd1760]

Yes this helps isolate different frequencies, but I have found that it has never worked, "in studio"...

[@patrickfarley8036]

This was dead on! After years of tuning experimentation early on in drumming, at some point I found drums had sweet spots and just about any kit will sound good if you find the sweet spot of the lowest tom and tune the rest of the kit to "First Call" (the trumpet call that lines up horses before a horse race.) all the drums will just sound great! I never play more than a 2 up 2 down kit, usually 1 up 2 down so, with my snares off I tune my snare to the highest tone but when playing with 2 floor and 2 rack I tune them to First Call and the bass and snare to something that just feels right! This way, as you say, you're tuning the drums not to a specific key but to themselves instead. This has worked for me for over 40 years of drumming.

[@HankNinja]

This intro is the funniest thing I’ve seen in a while.

[@pete11970]

A tune-bot is great for helping you determine the tuning for each head of your kit and saving those frequencies in the tuner so you can check and retune your drums that same way (especially in a recording studio) every time. The end game is remembering those tones so you can tune them by ear, which of course is much more efficient.

[@jonathanbormann5077]

This is great. I've always done it by ear, use the "crinkle" method and then dial it in from there. Always gotten compliments since I started doing it that way. I try to keep the intervals between toms appropriate but again, it's all by ear

I 100% agree with your points. but you would totally rock Mary Had A Little Lamb, just saying. My first book on drums in high school. Basic for the Untuned Percussion. The only "drum" instrument that I can think of that is tuned is the timpani/kettle drum, but that makes sense because they really resonate and hold the note.

[@videocast3655]

Im glad I listened till the end. this tuning farce goes all the way back to around 1975 give or take a few years, when a drum store salesman advised me to tune my drums in thirds starting with the bass drum at "G". I used a piano to acomplish this task and when I showed up at my next gig, not one other guy in the band noticed any difference in the drum sounds. so # 11 Rob, if you dont tell anybody, they absolutely wont know. lol good video..

I used to obsess about tuning until I watched your 'wrinkly head/not wrinkly head' tuning vid a couple years back.You lifted a heavy weight off my shoulders back then and I never looked back or worried anymore about it.

[@bartoszdolewski4915]

I simply love your bullshit-free content and really "sober" way of thinking about drums and music. The first video of yours that I saw a billion years ago was just about tuning the toms. While this is not always working for me in a studio (some sound engineers decide to tune my drums themself to their liking - I have no issues with that), it is working 99% at live gigs when there is little to none time and space to tune any drums, especially some backline drums shared by everyone.

[@Brewkowsky07]

Great video! Tuning by ear is the best way to do things. You'll learn a lot that way. I do own a Drum Dial and a Tune Bot, but they normally sit dormant in a box. Both can be tools to help you along the way, but should be used as tools. I find it helpful most times to tune by ear, and then check tensions with a Drum Dial and use that to fine tune anything that might be off.

[@RazeTheWeak]

I use a tunebot for tom and snare tuning. Learned to do it by ear first, but was introduced to the bot later by a studio engineer I worked with. He was a stickler for maintaining tom and snare tuning thorough the recordings so that the drums sounded the exact same in every song. It’s something that I utilize at all times now because it is easy, consistent, and reliable.

[@Tagger0325]

And you tuned to notes ?

[@LEOsoulMonarch]

First, I wanna say thank you for the insightful video. It's really got me thinking about things. Can't lie. Second, that was one of the best intros I've ever seen in my whole life. And that's saying a lot because I've seen the MTR intro (the song is awesome). Third, and this is the most important..........what you said about what my grandma told me, you take that back........😤😤😤😤😤 The third one is only 30% a joke. The other 70% I mean. Bonus fourth, I agree that drums are rhythmic instruments, but we do kinda gotta leave the door open for melodic imo. I respect your experience and perspective, but I gotta throw that in there. Hot take: Terry Bozzio is a great example this. He was OD as shit, and doing no less than the _absolute_ most, but he knew what he was doing. I thought man's was out of his friggin mind until I heard him play. (I still think he's insane because his kit ain't practical; I'll take my 5-piece gladly. But he's an insane genius.) Plus, when I was in marching band in college, we played P.I.M.P. by 50 cent on the bass drums, and one of our directors recognized it and gave us props for it. So I'm just saying, the possibilities are endless! 😆 EDIT: Forgot to mention that regarding what you mentioned about being able to bang out Mary Had a Little Lamb not making the drums melodic, you may have a point. But that might be a matter of perspective. Because now we have to ask whether the drums are a rhythmic instrument with melodic capabilities, or if the drums _are_ a rhythmic _and_ melodic instrument _because_ it has melodic capabilities? That gets tough to noodle out. 😅 Sorry for being long winded.

Good video, Rob! I would say the Interval between drums does matter. If two toms are only a half step apart they will sound "the same". I've been taught that the smallest interval between any combination of toms should be a Minor Third. Start with the Floor Tom and works UP from there. The wider, the better. Rock on, Bro.
