I found your tuning videos and just downloaded a free tuner app on my phone and used the frequencies from the tunebot website. Wow what a difference. My kit sounds so much better than just tuning by ear. Never would have tried tuning by frequencies if I didn’t find your videos and I don’t think I will ever go back now. Thank you!

Thats exactly the tone im looking for...i struggle with my 13 tom......

thanks finally found someone that makes sense and easy to follow

Two key tuning makes this even easier ;)

4:23 Top Head 130hz
6:21 Bottom Head 260hz

Perfect video! Thank you. Just tried rack and floor toms based off your videos and they sound better than ever!

Thanks so much for this- I have had maple drums in 13x9 and 16x16 since 1967- Ludwig Super Classics in my case- I have always tuned them a bit up (mostly Jazz Fusion) with a 4th interval between the heads- I needed a bit more "thwak" for a recording this week and having the reso head an octave up seemed odd at first but I dialed the 13x9 in on a  "C" (about 130)and the octave up on the bottom- sounds great- really sings and jumps out in the mix.

I always tune my tom heads the same, the reso maybe a hair more, but I love it, and in studio, especially if you're using heads with reinforcement rings, or moon gels, I don't find it's crazy ringy at all, you just might need to control it a bit sometimes, like I say a moon gel, maybe a little tape on the bottom, or some cotton balls in a floor tom for instance. I just almost always prefer it to a cranked reso, because with a tight reso you really get that weird diving sound. All I'm saying is, tuning them the same doesn't make the tom like a gong, or as crazy ringy as people say, it's usually super manageable.

I wish you would have played it some more. Barely got to hear it and sounds like its really good.

I have a 13” C&C Tom that I couldn’t get to sound the way I wanted. Threw a new Remo coated ambassador on it today and watched your video. It now sounds amazing!

great content!

Recently I have loved 22-13-16 set!!!
Additionally, their best heads: ONYX and EQ3 Clear (just my opinion)

For my 13” I like on the batter 175 (F), and the resonant 220 (A); major 3rd apart.  
You can play around with raising the batter to an 185 (F#) for a minor third interval, or lowering the resonant to a G# for the same internal but a different tonality.

I download the app and it was impressive but yesterday it stops working :( hope they can fix it

Hi Jared! Great video! I got two 13" toms in my kit. How can i get a nice tuning (frequencies or notes) for better balance between them ? Recently i got the Drumtune Pro app but without success on my tuning efforts. Thanx in advance. 👏😎🥁

Just wanted to say, your tuning on your drums is awesome! I've tried using Elevation Worship settings and another one and the drums just sound terrible for what we have. Tuning the top and bottom with different Hz has made our toms sound incredible!

1:40 “surprisingly you can tune the bottom head low, crank the top head up.” But then you tune the TOP head low and crank the bottom up. I think you said it backwards at 1:40

Hi Jared, I have a 13" tom and a 16" floor tom. I've been struggling for centuries to tune the 13" (tried all the techniques found on the net). And then, I saw your video.
130 Hz and 260 Hz worked like magic, it never sounded this good before!
🙂  Oh by the way, what frequencies would you recommend for a 16" floor tom?
Thank you so much.

Hi Jared! Thanks for everything!!
Any hints for 12 TOM?

Maybe B - 162
R - 324 ?

Hey man, your tuning for 13 and 16 have been my favorite tunings for years (and I’ve tried many) … could you tell me what I should try for a 10 inch and a 12 inch, please?
