order it on guitar center or musicians friend, they're also called drum dials, although i've heard mixed things about, they're good for a starting point but it's always good to have a good ear.. like he said in the vid
i dont have that tension watch thing. do i need it? also is it the same method for all of the drums? if anyone can answer those things for me that would be great thanks
Just make sure the tension is the same on all lugs of the same drum. For instance, if one of the lugs of your high tom is really tight, make sure all lugs on the high tom are really tight. After that, make sure you tune each drum the tension that sounds good to you.
Dutch accent? are you dutch? nou dit filmpje heeft me een hoop geholpen met het stemmen van mijn drumstel! Het was mijn eerste x dat ik moest stemmen en zag dit filmpje van jou.. echt bedankt!
I agree with xdirt. This dude is a badass drummer from Spain... Check out a few of his vids with yer hand under yer jaw to catch that thing when it falls to the floor.
I have a basic 5 piece swingstar tama kit to practice on. I understand how to postion everything except the cymbols. Are they supposed to lean toward the player at a certain angle? I'll just keep practicing the world's worst moeller technique on my snare and hi-hat
until I hear from someone about the symbols, Peace.
well, what what the guy who got me into drumming always tells me, set up the drums a way that it fits you, thier is no right or wrong way really. so if you like the ride where your floor tom is put it thier, it doesnt really matter.
Can all you people who are saying his drum kits are rubbish and/or insulting him stop it please. He has made this video to help people and has not directly offended anyone so just stop it.
thnx a bunch bro. hehe, ive noticed that all of us drummers seem to have difficulty choosing the right words for things lol. but we are the beat keepers ^_^

I needed to tune like this! Because we all know that beginner drummers don't need any tones or pitch to tune to! Just mime silently and keep playing!

Just make sure the tension is the same on all lugs of the same drum. For instance, if one of the lugs of your high tom is really tight, make sure all lugs on the high tom are really tight. After that, make sure you tune each drum the tension that sounds good to you.
