  • i just tuned my snare drum with this same method and it sounds terrible, what can i do?

  • If your need good basic tuning advise, Google the drum tuning bible. Very solid advice for all drummers but tuning is personal and is a true art.

  • make sure you own a drumkey? wtf...

  • Thanks for the video, I am very new to drums, I recently bought an old set of Pearl Forum drums and the snare sounded terrible, now it sounds amazing!!

  • Comment removed

  • hey really nice job. this helped me tune a really crappy snare that i just had lying around to a great sounding drum

  • Another advice for all you drum head out there. Do not tap the skin with your drum key, you will damage the bearing edge (over time).

  • @paistekid

    no you won't...not even close

  • @paistekid

    why, because you think you'll damage the bearing edge and I don't...LOL, think about it!

  • @paistekid Weckl talked about this awhile ago. Solid advice since a metal drum key could dent your bearing edge if not struck with care. 

  • es scheint ja sehr schwierig zu sein, das richtig zu machen, so viele videos wie es zum thema "tuning a drum" gibt. meine fresse. fragt eure lehrer und guckt euch nich irgendwelchen müll an...

  • this is a great and useful video !!

  • wtf isn't this that guy from freedrumlessonscom? This video is on their channel too

  • WD40 ARE YOU FUCKING SERIOUS! thats terrible.

  • please do not take the drum key to check the tune...will injure the resonant head

  • great tutorial!! i really got the sound i wanted by following your advice :)

  • So the Resonant head should be tighter than the Batter?

  • @tisBenG Well, some people prefer that style of tuning and some don't. If you want a really nice "snap" from your snare wires, then yes you would want to tune the bottom head much higher than the top head.

  • bahahaha great tutorial!

    I'm keen to hear a drum resonate like 7:02

  • on deep snare do tune your reso high too?

    thanks

  • @ricardoieci I've tried it, and it works pretty well for me. Just experiment!

  • finally! after 8 different snare tuning videos I finally found the advice I needed.

  • fantastic! thanks a lot!

  • DUDE THANK YOU! DAMN! THIS HAS ANSWERED MY PRAYERS!

  • THANKYOU! ur video has explained what no other videos have done. no other videos explained the bottom head in the way u did. dave weckl is a genius!
