Hey I'm trying to tune my first kit and am still super confused about each head. I had made a drumeo account several months ago and never got to actually use my free trial. Is there advice you can give?

How to tune your toms? First: Get a good drums! Me: 😥

[@jahkmusic5729]

Its not about what kind if kit you have ! I use to have groove percussion kits with evans heads on them and tune em up and they sound amazing. All you have to do is throw on brand heads to your liking evans,remo,aquarian etc and tune em up you'll surprise yourself

[@alreygella6302]

[@doesntmatter9098]

Go to zzounds.com Or American musical supply online.. Both of those websites give musicians an opportunity to buy all the gear they need for monthly payments. I bought my pdp dw 7 piece kit with all new batters and resonate heads, cymbal packs, throne, stands, and fee other for under 2grand paying 100+ a month for 8 months and zzounds in 2015 I Just received 3 packages yesterday from AMS with new sabian cymbal pack, all new drums heads, gopro camera etc etc for 200 for the next 5 months. They even do no credit checks. It can happen if u want it to

[@e.p.5075]

Out of tune pra caralho! Kkkk

[@dalestokes2789]

NO worries man, thats why those drums are priced as high as they are. A good drum will have a good tone from the shell as well as the head, where as with a cheaper set, most of the good tones will be coming from the head itself! There are plenty of great videos for making cheaper drumsets sound really good through getting good heads, some dampening, and a little tuning!

[@ImTheDrummer115]

Quick tip! If you want lower tom pitches, start with the lowest floor tom, and work your way up!

[@chris_bern]

I'mTheDrummer Great advice thanks!

[@jasonevans5480]

Question does mics affect the sound of toms

[@St_Mindless]

@@jasonevans5480 suppose they could if the mic is directly clamped on.

[@Ben802]

Ok, I just want to point out, I notice when you put your drum heads on, you should equally tension each tension rod across from one another instead of clockwise around the drum shell. This is going to allow your drum head to sit better on the shell instead of having an uneven amount of pressure going down on one side of the drum head. It's ultimately going to mess with the full optimal amount of resonance of your drums, over all tone, and sound of them too. I'm not saying the drums sound bad and if your ears agree, then by all means tune them they way you'd like, but generally speaking, I don't think it's the best thing to be demonstrating what is generally considered to be an improper drum tuning technique by most drummers. Cheers!

[@vinayg7523]

Jared says: "I remember when I was 15 or 16...I remember struggling with tom sound." Hey Jared! Clue train! It couldn't have anything to do with the fact that you're now tuning/playing DW's top of the line series could it???

[@thdrknight]

Good job! And for everyone, you dont need to spent 10k on a set for amazing drum sounds. I just tuned my Yamaha stage custom, using his tips and it sounds way better now.

Cold Sleep, We could call Jared, Jared Baker in honor of the Ginger Man, Gingher Baker - he was adept at Tom playing which introduced some African influences with being a Master of Syncopation in his playing. Watch some Ginger's solos from the past and /or watch Beware Mr. Baker documentary. A very Cranky person, but a Helluva Drummer who took Rock Drumming to the Forefront. May he RIP.

[@forestkincaid704]

I have played around with the drums for as long as I can remember. My dad is an amazing drummer but until recently I haven't taken it seriously. As a surprise My dad bought me a Pearl Vision 5 piece drum set to replace the the badly used and damaged one I have been playing on at my church. Your videos on tuning have helped me soooo much! I have also watched a lot of your videos on keeping time and downloaded the metronome app. It all has helped immensely, especially because I don't have any other drummer friends who can help me and my dad is in another state so I was at a complete loss on how to tune and I have to have a decent sounding set by Wednesday. I just watched the video on how to tune the kick and it already sounds SSSOOOO much better. Its funny, a lot of people think that playing the drums is just a sort of Neanderthal act of beating on something with a stick and so when I would try to explain to people how much trouble I was having no one really understood that there is ACTUAL thought that goes into it! But thanks so much for your help!!!

[@trevorborgfjord5837]

Forest Morrell I also have a pearl vision kit!

[@BuddyMJake]

I love the lessons .and I dont mind saying that I'm 47 yrs old .ive always loved drums .I can't sing so I tried drums .When I was younger I always wanted a drum set .but mom and dad couldn't afford them .so I let my dream to play with peter criss the best drummer in my eyes .next to everyone who pick up a drum stick I love you guys and gals. I finally have a set of my owni have to say its amazing I wish I could have done this all my life .but when I would go to concerts I would always watched the drummers first show was Kiss , peter criss a rock god in my eyes .I know I will never be as good as peter criss ., or the ones who play daily. Part because getting older not as lumber .but I will always say a prayer for you .the drummer so god keeps you well please I think everyone in the band are great and with out there be no shows .but the drummer in my eyes are talented. I wish I could have followed my dream to be a drummer. God bless you all who play every night .now go rock the hell out of those drums. ..................♡

[@bryanharrison3889]

Its late, I live in an apartment, I'm watching this with the volume super low and STILL could immediately hear the slightest variations on the tom lugs as you tuned. lol. It ain't rocket science to those who have problems with tuning drums, if you're having trouble its because you're over thinking it and you're not trusting your ears or your gut... just relax. let the tuning happen, follow this wise young man's instructions, and your kit will sound fantastic.

[@philenns6797]

I like to use two keys and use graduated tightening at opposing lugs in a rotational progression. This saves a lot of time and benefits the head as it cross tensions to final preferred tuning. Yet and in short, whatever works for you, well, works!

[@demisemedia]

I just bought a Tama Silverstar (birch). Changed the stock heads to Remo Coated Emperor and they sound BEAUTIFUL! Nice & warm with medium resonance and sustain. I like the bottom head being a little more loose as well!

[@bergerdrum]

Bear in mind that a half-turn on a DW drum, which has really fine threaded tension rods, isn't going to be the same as a half-turn on a Ludwig, or Gretsch, or Pearl, or Tama, which all have larger/coarser threads on their rods.

[@fieldsoftorment1]

Thanks for the tips, Been really trying to use my ears to help dial in the perfect sound on my kit, after watching your video I tuned my resonant heads and got the best tom sound Ive ever had. Made last nights show a blast!!

[@timothycroke5307]

I think this type of video is amazing in how simple it’s presented. Thank you again Jared,

[@DrumeoOfficial]

I always found them harder to tune but that is my personal opinion. I'd recommend trying different heads to find your own sound.

[@anthonyhewitt9397]

Yeah man u have done more than your fair share of helpful videos. you taught me alot and made me secure with the stuff I did know. I love the sound u go for, sounds great, and exactly what I try n get out of my set ,dry thud with warm, tone. A good teacher separates his personal habits and simplifys the subject matter, a fine job. I make all my wanna be drummer freinds watch your videos. anywhere from hitting the drum to tuning and muting. love it. Haha these vids, have saved me hours of explaining time.!! can't wait for another

Old school tuning....almost exactly how I tune. And I love Evan's Coated G2s....and Jared can play any Evan's head he wants. Awesome. My challenge in tuning the toms....the 12" tom....my main Tom.

[@jeremieturner3911]

WOW! Those mics are awesome! You can barely hear all the bad tuning

[@rongarza9488]

Wow, very good. Rotating the first tom to get to its resonant head was a great extra. I'm new to drums and see that the higher notes are at my left (with the lower notes to my right), which is totally the opposite from a keyboard or a guitar. That is going to take some time getting used to. Also, a ledger sheet showing which space is which drum/hat/cymbal/etc. would be nice (maybe in a separate lesson).

The high pitch overtones in my floor tom almost overpower the rumble, it's awful. I cam to this video for help but he literally just puts on his heads and it sounds amazing. He could take a shit on his floor tom and it would sound great

[@NarrowIsThePath]

TYVM! Very help for me! IMO one of the most helpful tuning videos I've seen to date! Much appreciated!

[@SeverinoSE]

I think those 14" and 16" toms are hanging on a double tom stand. And they seem to be holding pretty well. I was looking into converting mine into floor toms but I think it's worth giving this a try seeing that it worked for you. Legs and brackets reduce the resonance quite a bit when compared to rack toms.

[@morten1]

Always tune UP after down. Like on a guitar.. down, and then slightly up. That way the screw stays better in tension

I learned many years ago to start with the lowest drum first. This is for the purpose of ‘relationship’ between the toms. You may tune the smaller ones too high by the time you get to the floors, and then the whole set is too high. Start with the floors and go up.

Gotta say, as a music educator, this is an issue that continues to come up. I don't consider myself a "hater", but I do have an issue with you even saying that people hate when they suggest that you may not be teaching this in the most successful way. Again, you make a good point in that there isn't only one way to do it, but I do recommend tuning the lugs across from eachother for clarity and maintaining integrity of the heads as well. It just seems like you saying that they just sound amazing allows you do convey it isn't worth doing things thoroughly

[@danielvanhorssen1325]

Exactly

[@THREADSXO]

"DRUM MINIONS.....ASSIST ME!!"

[@katanatac]

Good video. When I change out my drum heads, I check the rim for burrs and clean the rim. Before I put the new head on, I'll take an old candle or paraffin block and run it around the rim of the drum. This helps lubricate the head so I don't have to seat the head. Been playing since 1974, keep on rockin!

[@bio-mech8906]

It tends to sound better for me if the reso is actually a little tighter than the batter. I learned that from Russ Miller's tuning video. It also makes a great deal of difference what type of head you use as well as the size of the drum regarding the tension difference between the top and bottom head. for deeper drums I almost always have to have the reso tighter.

What about the unsung hero's called THE BOTTOM HEADS..

[@rpetersky]

Hi, to be honest, this is the first video from Jared what makes me question whether this was a good investment of 23 minutes of my life. I think in this time you could actually say much more about the options and other ways how to tune. Perhaps even different tunings for a few distinctive music genres. I know it is a matter of taste, but honestly - by saying "Get yourself a good drums and drumheads and it will be very easy to tune and get good sound" I am not so sure this will satisfy the most of the drummers watching this. For instance - I have always struggled to get nice sustain - not so long but kind of live. And there are a lot of ways to achieve this even without dampening - like tuning the reso head higher. Equal tune on both heads = the longest tone and that is not always desired. Otherwise I am very fond of what you are doing and I think it is very beneficial for the drumming community. Peace

It depends on your preference if you want the low thump sounds on your toms,use Remo pinestripe heads,the heads are 2ply 7 mil. I personally have pinestripe on my ludwig rocker elite and it sounds great

[@WorldWidedog0]

If you have questions rely to this account this is the account I use morw

[@hsakaayrtsim6750]

Thanks gonna try find one on eBay or Amazon

[@TotalEvo7]

It is personal preference. If you do choose to use Evans drum heads, then for the top heads, and for a dark tone, you would opt to try out the Black Chrome, EC2 Frosted or Clear, Hydraulics, or Onyx. For brighter tones, go for the G14, G12, or G1. The G2 heads are the mid range tone. Then again, that's based on personal preference, and also depends on what sound you're trying to achieve.

Zack Mester Have you replaced the heads? Just keep trying. It takes time to get that perfect sound. With enough patience you can make a terrible drumset sound pro.

[@ZackMester]

Haha I've gotten my set to sound good for how cheap it is but there is just simply no way I can match a custom dw kit like in this video

Zack Mester Ludwig accent series wasn't bad those are deep drums. I think one thing that they failed to discuss was the role of each drum head, reso and batter, and more or less that idea of a perfect step down much like when a guitar is tuned and the strings all have the same sequential drop thats what you can almost imagine for your drums. Keep your batter head as your pitch control and your reso head as the depth control also watch Bob Gatzens tuning method he goes more into the cross tuning and how the lugs affect one another

For how old this is Jared is playing DAMN well. with the restraint of only having toms he's creative, melodic, and musical:) Give the drummer some.

I have a accent combo power tone from 20004 and the tom’s are deep and the snare is 6x5x14 and I had some remo clear pinstripes and changed it to Aquarian preforments 2 clear with black rings on the edges and thay sound great perfect for rock

Hello from the future. In two years you may not be active on this account. You may have a new job. Maybe a new house. Possibly a family. You may look back at this comment and get a wave of nostalgia. Or you may not see it at all.

[@pvpsound]

I sat for ever trying to tune my drums and they sound like absolute crap, it's probably just because they're old af

rocketscrub try new head I like Evans for the level 360 and get a 2 ply head it will help a lot and moongel

[@kickback73]

been struggling with snare tuning for years cause I kinda suck and this just clicked for me. old batter head went from a $2.35 sounding head to a big $10 for sure. my band mates will be happy. cheers from YUMA Collective.

great vid iam going to tune my kit tomorrow its been awhile i have the exact same kit in a redwood burl finish though whats funny is my kit had some wild over tones i could not get rid of until i had my edges checked out to find that even a top of the line dw the edges on mine were just a hair un even when put on the ultra flat laser level surface i had some light shinng through when they were alk checked out so after i got those edges sanded it fixed my issue it was a night and day fix and now i can tune super low or high with no wild overtones its perfect now and no i did not change my edges at all we just made sure i had a perfectly level edge and my drum guy that did it for me told me that yes even the best drums on the market this can happen and he sees it all the time but for anyone out there who has their dream kit but has not been able to get the desired sound they have always wanted get your bering edges checked by a pro it does not cost alot to fix and you will never think about buying another kit again
