Re: Drum tuning to notes using the Tune-bot
I tune my 1up/1dwn to a 4th. I’ve tried a 5th, but didn’t like it as well. I use the iDrumTune app, which actually samples the sound and gives you the overall frequency in Hz, along with a spectrum analyzer that shows you the overtones and how pure the note is.
I’ve tuned them by ear and had them to what I thought was “perfect” and sounded great, then sampled them....only to be surprised at how far off they actually were. Then I adjusted them with the app and was amazed at how much better they sounded. My ears must really be bad, LOL.
I highly recommend the iDrumTune App. It’s quick, easy, cheap, and it’s always handy since it’s on your phone.

Play the SONG......not the DRUMS!!!
"I think that feeling is a lot more important than technique. It's all very well doing a triple paradiddle - but who's going to know you've done it? If you play technically you sound like everybody else. It's being original that counts." ~ John Bonham
