Re: High 10" tom resonates when I hit (strike) my low 12" tom, creating an annoying s
The 10” batter is a 218Hz and the 12” reso is at 193Hz. I’m guessing these are so close that you’re getting sympathetic vibrations.
Try narrowing the gap between the top & bottom head tensions on the 10”. Set the batter just a hair below your target note (C3) and the reso just a touch higher. Or, set them at the same tension for maximum resonance. Smaller toms like 10” are usually lacking in resonance anyway.
