How Do I Tune My Drums?
i got a drumset at a garage sale but it is not tuned. i know the tuning technique ect. my questions are:
What notes do i tune each piece of the set to?
Do i have to listen by ear, or are their specially desgined drum tuners?
Are the heads drums supposed to ring? (i play metal and hard rock if that matters)
