Hey guys.
This seems to be my go to place for asking drum related questions, and the community is always great to me. So I'd like to ask advice, and get opinions based on something that well... I can't just make my mind up on.
I know that wrinkles in drumheads are obviously bad, and could ruin the drumhead. My question is this; are wrinkles acceptable to a point? I have my floor tom tuned low, and I love the sound I get out of it. I have it tuned to the point where there are no wrinkles visable, and when I'm playing on it there are no wrinkles. However, when I apply a fair amount of force I'll see a wrinkle or two. Should I tune these completely out? I love how it's tuned right now, both batter and reso are tuned to my exact liking, but I'm constantly finding myself wondering if I'm harming the drumhead by having it this low.
The heads I'm questioning are Evans EC2 clear batters over clear g1 resonant side.
