Great video! It's nice to hear toms that actually have tone in a worship setting and arent just triggered. Love it!
Thank you so much! Appreciate your kind words
One of the main reasons drummers don’t have success with a Tune Bot is they don’t use the filter feature. Definitely use the filter for best results. Also, dampen the head between hits for more accurate lug to lug results. Allowing the tone to continue as you tap at the next lug could give a false reading. One potential downside to tuning for max resonance is that it generally means your batter will be tuned higher than it would be using a lower resonance setting. I like my floor toms to be softer under the stick. Did I mention to always use the Filter Button??!? 😅
Couldn’t agree more! The filter feature is awesome. Great call out!
What do you mean when you say use the filter button? I have the tune bot gig version, so where is the filter feature on this one? Thanks for your help.
@@ChrisHunterSavesTheDay Jey Chris. The Tune Bot Gig uses the same button for multiple functions. Start the process like normal ring the tension rods to the desired frequency. Once the first rod hits the goal number, hit the button to switch to filter mode. It will lock in the number you chose and then as you tune subsequent rods, it gives you the +/- compared to the target. This also filters out confusing harmonics. Have fun!
Thanks. I just started using my tune bot. Good to hear about it. I will try those pointers.
You are a life saver. This is so much better than what the tune bot calculator was giving me!!
Happy to help! When it comes to tuning the times, you kind of have to get your hands dirty, it just takes some time to dial in the sound that you specifically want! So glad that this video helped you
Brother you are the best im gonna have my drums set up tuned really great with these tips and tunes. Thank you so much! i did a comment in one of your reels you are awesome. God bless you a lot !! Regards from Argentina
You are more than welcome so glad to help you
Great video, i have a 2 rack 2 floor Ludwig kit setup and the tune bot looks like an excellent investment, definitely want to pick up one soon, appreciate your video 🥁
Sounds Great!
I don’t have a tune-bot so I’ll have to memorize the sound with my ears
Thanks so much! Yes, you can always listen to the video when I’m showing the result of the tunings
Love your videos! I like the A2 calculation. Could you please recommend a tuning for a 10”, 12” 14” and 20” bass for a PDP Maple?
6.5 x 14 aluminum vertical snare drum. Huge fan of low thudy / big fat snare drum sound
Really good
Glad you think so!
Hey Ryan great video! Getting into worship drumming. What would you recommend for a 14 snare, 10,12 rack tom & 16-floor tom? Also, how do you find out the best note and hz for the toms? Is is based off of drum theory or something lol.
Fantastic sounding toms. What numbers would you tune an 18” floor tom, if you were to incorporate it into the tuning of the two toms you just showed us? Thanks!
Muito bom.. Obrigado, ajudou muito
I’m so glad to hear that!
Evans makes uv2 tom heads they are amazing tune up easy and last try them some day
I’ve heard nothing but good things about them!
Hi mister! Mi idol is Roger Taylor from Queen. I like his drum sound :) I have a modest Queen tribute band. What would you recommend for 10", 14" toms, 16" 18" floor toms? Thanks
Hey man! Nice video any recomendation for a my kit 10 & 12 and 16 floor tom? Thnks
Of course!
10 A 189hz top and bottom lugs
12 E 142hz top and bottom lugs
16 B 106hz top and bottom lugs
10/12/16 setup for toms. Recs for tuning settings w/ tunebot? Thank you
thanks for posting this, i just bought the tune bot and i feel like im starting from scratch learning what all of this stuff means. i have a question, i really like to hit my toms at the same time (12, 16) and like you i like a nice boom but i want them to compliment each other rather than conflict when hit, maybe even harmonize? any suggestions?
Use the tunings that I show in the video as I use a 12&16
Tune the rack Tom to an A2 and the floor Tom to an A1
I have a 12/14/16 setup. Considering perfect fourths between the toms, do you have a preferred top/bottom interval or tuning with Tunebot? Thanks!
Try these out and use a moon gel on each batter head

@@Theryanprim Thanks! They sound a little choked compared to what the Mapex can handle. I'm wondering if I need to do 2-3 semitones lower.
@@msgdob86 yeah I would lower all drums but 2 semitones and it should be sounding really nice and thuddy for you!
Your Tom sound really good. Did you upgrade the drum hoops?
I didn’t, these are the standard rims
Are the tunings you recommend good for heavy rock/alt stuff? I want some powerful toms that have some 'thunk' and cut through loud guitars (think like nirvana/alice in chains style stuff)
Yeah I would recommend these tunings for that genre too!
I have a 10”, 13”, and a 14” Toms. What would you recommend
awesome tutorial!
What do you recommend for 10” 12” and 14” toms I love the sounds really much
Hi! I would suggest these settings:
10 A 189hz top and bottom lugs
12 F# 159hz top and bottom lugs
14 D 126hz top and bottom lugs
Drums sound great. I have 13,16,18. What would you recommend for this?
Thanks so much!! Here’s what I would recommend for those sizes
18” G# (1st Octave) 89Hz top and bottom lugs
16" C (2nd Octave) 112 Hz Top and bottom lugs
13" E (2nd Octave) 142Hz top and bottom lugs
@@Theryanprim thank you!
@@Kevshaw you are most welcome! Thank you for watching the video.
I got pearl roadshow 14' Snare, 10' & 12' Rack toms,16' Floor Tom, 22' Bass. What would you recommend sir? Thanks.
Hi Ray! Thank you for watching!
For the snare drum I would do this
235 hz top lugs / 400hz bottom lugs
10 A Top and Bottom Lugs 189 hz
12 E Top and Bottom Lugs 142 hz
16 B Top and Bottom Lugs 106 hz
@@Theryanprimdo the top and bottom lugs have the same Hz for the toms ? I have the same drum set and am using the tune bot Studio
Those toms in the intro video sound uniquely dry and beefy. Nice!
Glad you like them!
Hey brother I had your recommended configuration for my PDP Concept Maple . My set up is 8 , 10 , 12 ,14 and 16 toms with a Pearl Maple Freefloat snare drum. Could you please share your recommended your configuration for this set up. I have to tune my kit before October 27th 2023 for our church event An Evening With Mother Mary . If you can help out it would be greatly appreciated. Our church is big seats up to 800 people .
I need to reset and save the configuration on my tunebot app.
I would download the Tunebot app and put in all of those drum sizes and it will tell you how to tune all of them
What would you use on a 13 and 16? Kick is a 24 if that matters.
13 top and bottom lugs 159hz F#
16 too and bottom lugs 106hz B
Hi Brother, Greetings from Sri Lanka. I've been Tuning my kit for the church according to your settings, and got to say, man I love its tone and feel. Can you Kindly tell me your Settings for your Snare also I have a 13-inch rack tom. What Settings would you suggest to me for that??
Thank You in Advance
That’s so cool! Be sure to check out the brand new snare tuning video that I just published. Here are the settings for my 13 inch rack Tom top 163hz
Bottom 174hz

Dude you are the one…
I got a 12,14, set up New catalina club… and im getting mad with the tunning can’t find a mid tone sound… what would you say ?
12 I would tune both the top and bottom lugs to an A2
189 hz each lug
14 tune it to a D2
126 hz each lug
What snare tuning do you tune to? What snare heads do you use?

Great video thank you ! I cant find the tunebot app tho !
What kind of mobile phone do you have? I’m not sure what devices are supported
I have samsung galaxy s22 ultra an s20 ultra and an s7...mainly use s22u
@@veesoho93 I’m not sure if they have an android app
hey man do u think i could tune my 13 inch tom with the same settings as the 12 inch
Of course! You can try it out and see if it vibes with your 13’. I’ll send you another option for a 13’ 16’ that I also use:

Thanks!
Would be happy to help!

@@Theryanprim thanks for your fast response! Blessings!
Blessings in which notes can I tune a pearl export snare 14 tom 12 tom 13 floor tom 16 and bass drum 22 in worship?
250 hz top lugs on snare and one moon gel
400 hz bottom lugs on snare
12 Tom 169 hz top and botto lugs
13 Tom 134 hz top and bottom lugs
16 Tom 106 hz top and bottom lugs
22 batter lug 66 hz
22 reso lugs 76 hz
In the case of tom and floor tom on both sides the Hz are the same?
@@deyvibaquinofernandez8834 yes they are the same
If you don’t know notes but you know the sound you want is this tool still useful?
Absolutely! It’s all about dialing in the frequency regardless of the notes, you can learn which numbers you like the most
At least you're using a Tunebot! There IS no substitute! You neglected to show the fundamental note after the lugs were done, unless I missed it. The app settings are only an approximation, as I'm sure you know, and the final numbers vary slightly based on your own individual drum size and head choices.
The fundamental note is in the description.

@@Theryanprim thanks for the settings. I play top Remo Emperor and bottom Remo Ambassador.
My Bassdrum Sonor 22x17/5 with Remo Powerstroke 3 Batter 70Hz Bottom 92Hz. Sounds good, but do you have another tip?
Hey Ryan, I tried this HZ since I have a 10,12,13,16 configuration. The thing though is I’m not liking what the 13 tom is set at bc it makes it sound more like a 14 floor tom and the 12 is just like a little higher rack tom. I want the 13 to be the main rack tom sound where when I go to the 16, it should sound good. Do you have another HZ setting recommendation for that?
Basically I don’t like my 13 sounding that low. Would I shoot it up to like a 155hz both top and bottom? 12 tom would be at around 185-190?
I have a 13 in tom at my church. Hate it, its what I got. What do you recommend for tuning that?
