Why do drummers think they are the only musicians on earth exempt from tuning assistance? Symphonies use tuning references. Guitar/bass players user them. Im glad you get what you need but using the tools will make you better.+1 for your ears. Don’t wanna be a boomer by its definitely worth trying to get really good at tuning the good old fashioned way before you buy a device to help you, just a thought.

I use the tune bot. The devices relying on tension depend on too many variables being on the mark
But let’s get real, most players can get pretty close by ear, but the tune bot adds more certainty. It doesn’t fix everything, partly because it’s a matter of taste as to what intervals are pleasing, furthermore most kits have a maximum of 2 or 3 sweet spots, so tuning outside of these wont deliver optimal sound. The trick is to find the sweet spot for your kit and application and head configuration and stick and then use the tune bot to dial this in. Works every time, no guess work.
Those instruments are tuning to and with each other. Drums are tuned to themselves basically, so stirking an A-440 chime before playing is not necessary. If you are at a gig and feel a drum has become untuned, you don't have time to drag out a tuning device. Use your ear. Many heads can be gotten for the price of a tuning device.Why do drummers think they are the only musicians on earth exempt from tuning assistance? Symphonies use tuning references.
