    Re: DrumDial Changes

    I honestly don't know how well my set stays in tune per the DD. I tend to tune a lug or so by ear then use the DD to even out the rest. I never bother to remember the numbers after that.

    Re: Which addition should I add to my drums first?

    Get the splash. If you're torn between an accent cymbal or a double pedal, chances are you still have room for improvement with a single.

    Whatever you do...just keep playing! :boom-crash:

    Re: Side Benefits of Ear Protection

    I found some noise isolating tips for my iPod earbuds that I use most of the time. Other than that, usually nothing...although, I'm thinking that my shooting ear plugs might be worth a try.

    Re: Bass Drum Tuning

    Here's a good way to open the 'ol can of worms...

    I use a Drum Dial to hit a reference tension and tune by ear from there.

    Let the fun begin!

    Re: Tuning Question

    If you're going to use a key, be very careful not to hit your bearing edges as it will dent them pretty easily.

    My noob kit! 2009 Tama Imperialstar with Meinl HCS cymbals. I'll eventually upgrade, but I think it's a pretty good starting point and they sound great once tuned properly.
