Tension

[MartiniDave1121]

i signed up to this forum because of the great information that i find you all provide.

can somebody out there give me some ideas about drum tension tuning? i would like to know what settings you all use out there for a standard 5pc kit. 12/13/16 toms, 14 snare, 22 - bass.

I don't know much about it, but I have a feeling 14" snares are best at around 90lbs or 180, can't remember. I think 180 is marching snares. Sorry! Crap advice I know.

are you talking about using something like a drum dial or the tama equivalent to read the tension?
