    I was just watching this and looking into your channel, and I noticed that you had a dynasty feature at Minnesota percussion association. I recently bought a set of blue sparkle fade quads from dynasty that had been “lightly used” they said at a show In Minnesota. So I guess I know own a set that you’ve “broken-in”

    Great tutorial!!! My son is getting into quads and we want to get our fluidity when rolling like you did at spot (5:54). Is that a 6 stroke roll, diddle??? Can you break down the roll? Thanks

    This is a good tuning option that you guys should use.
    Higher Spock: A
    Lower Spock: E above one octave from Drum 4.
    Drum 1: B
    Drum 2: A flat
    Drum 3: G flat
    Drum 4: E
    I like tuning the drums like the song with the notes of "Mary had a little lamb". I experimented with different keys of Mary had a little lamb and found that I like this a lot. Imma reply to this comment with another set of tuning you can use for your drums if it can take the tension.

      Second tenor drum tuning option. (For this one, you can decide what note to tune your spocks, I'm just doing 1-4.
      Drum 1: E
      Drum 2: C#
      Drum 3: B
      Drum 4: A
      Like I said in my first comment, I like tuning tenors with the notes of Mary had a little lamb but in different keys.

    Bets tenor tuning video I found so far. Clear and to the point. I have a question for you though... how the hell am I supposed to transport those babies from point A (my houe for instance) to point B (rehearsal or gig) ? Is there bag / suitcase available? Thank you very much for the inspiring videos.

      Ian Parmley in my opinion it’s based on what sound u are trying to achieve. So if your playing is based upon triplets and singles at high speeds, then a lower sound would give you a more afro Caribbean sound (doesn’t apply to pop drums) or if your like me and used a lot of flams, diddles and rim shots then tuning the drums low would make everything u play sound muddy and indistinguishable from the tonal bases, or traditional tenor drums if you march show style. Then tuning them high makes what you play sound more distinct and timbale like. The notes he tuned to in the video is great for any style and setting of playing but again... it can very. Jeez I wrote a lot hope I helped😂

      @@christianstainazfischer Great advice. Now I see why percussionists majoring in music had to learn piano in college. It makes sense now. Helps tremendously when tuning drums and writing music. Until someone showed me how to tune the drumset I play at church to notes, I was always tuning to notes in my head which I had no idea what they were.

    Interesting that you tune the same day you put on new heads. I've always been told to leave them half tightened for a day before cranking them up the rest of the way.

      It really doesn't matter. Most people just tune right after they slap on some new heads.

    I’m a newbie and wanted to tune by freq. Do you know the frequency’s of the piano notes you use in the video? Probably a silly question but is the drum 4 a F2# or F3#? F2# sounds way to low but I’m afraid F3# will make the other drums too high. Does this make any sense?

      They're considerably higher than the traditional 5-piece ones, but you could probably use 1 through 3 on a kit as range extensions before the high tom, kinda like how some people rock roto toms to the left of their hi-hat. The real trick is finding the right mounts for them.

      You should def clean everything out each time you change the heads. And stretching them before tuning them down to where you want is a good idea

    • @yookaybeats8106
      @yookaybeats8106 6 лет назад +1

      Any moisture on or in your drum at all? That would cause the rainbow look, and it would definitely make it bubble. If you cleaned your heads like he did in the video, either dry them off, or wait for them to dry manually.
