Super easy to understand and follow along. Basically this took the decades of experience of his playing and tuning and made it simple to understand for any level of player.
Hi, I've been tuning my kit with notes for several years now and I haven't had any issues to begin with. I just wanted to change it up a bit. I think everyone should experience with their kit just like you mentioned on the video. I understand that many drummers are super picky about it too.. 😆. I'm just sharing a thought and hopefully I can make new friends here as well. Happy Drumming to y'all.
Glad you enojed it! It's definitely an art, but these days you can really get scientific about it. People love to get tweaky about tuning and writing their settings down with TuneBots and Drum Dials but they're not a necessity and takes the art out of it a little.
@@westcoastdrumshop Please look at my Post on The Snare drum Tuning video - about a "weird" thing I encountered when placing my DW Brass snare on top of my 16 inch Floor Tom!! Created a great Ludwig Supraphonic sound that I unable to get. THX
Going to try this on my old 3 ply Ludwigs. Have gotten them pretty good sounding trying “wrinkle tuning” method but with that divebomb sound that isn’t quite as pleasant to the ears. Great video!
Great tutorial! First time someone tells me to mute the center! I'm still learning after 18 years :) Unfortunately the gate settings for the recording seems to be weirded out by the tom hits, there's a noticeable cut before the we hear the final decay of the last tom hit in particular. And the background music I'm not too sure about!
Nice video, but the floor tom keeps sounding weird, I'll try to loosen a bit the reso skin. Also, I don't like the impact of the battent skin, I can feel it's loose when i punch it with the stick and it's weird. Do you have any advice? Maybe tightening the battent skin and loosening the reso skin more than the battent may help to have a nice impact while maintaining a low pitch?
Honestly, this is the best and most comprehensive tutorial I have seen so far.

My god! Absolute best tuning vid! My toms finally sing like a tub choir! Thank you! 🤘
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks for this cool video presentation.
🐐
Watched several tutorials, and this is the first to end up with a great sounding tom. Great job. And you made it look simple.
thank you!!

Great tuning tutorial, thanks! I really like the real time tuning and the full process going on.
This was a great tutorial and very helpful thank you!
Will, nice simple Tuning Info. THX for the video. I'm learning how much Tuning is an Art.

Sounds good!

Were you able to hear the difference in pitches between lugs? Background music is super quiet on all of our systems.
music in the backround is distracting
To me a little distracting but not quite.
It’s hard to hear the subtle things going on with the decay with the music.

The background music does not allow listening…
Were you using your phone or speakers?
The music in the background isn’t distracting whatsoever
Turn off the bg tune!
It's pretty quiet. Were you listening on a phone or speakers?
@@westcoastdrumshop It is but still unnecessary IMHO. I was able to hear everything tho!
The background music is annoying AF.
why play music that makes it hard for us to hear the tuning of the drums? its distracting and annoying.
It's mostly listening & trusting your ear's. After you've done it correctly a few times, it a breeze. It's not rocket science.
