Now why you want your drum to sound like a wood block. I've got those LP plastic thingies for that
Plastic!!! Just kidding. I like that pop and the way it projects. Besides, playing wood/plastic blocks with your hands just doesn't make it happen.
As far as the nag... take today for instance, El Nino is working, it is 70 degrees F with 93% humidity and there was a thunderstorm passing through about an hour ago. Last year at this time my pool was frozen. Dragging drums out of A/C cars to a gig setting up in a humid venue, tuning, tuning, re-tuning is fine if you are sitting in the percussion chair, but working a kit (IMHO) should be a bit more static than that and I think that is what the OP has in mind. Not to mention drum head conservation... i.e. slacking the tuning when not playing. Stuff like that. I get it. I've done it, and it comes with the territory so to speak, and I don't mind the maintenance. But, you have to admit hand percussion has notable specifics that aren't present in kit and visa versa.
I have drum set in the garage, and a 4 congas (tuned to Cmag9) I went out there this morning and the Congo's are in tune. In fact I haven't tuned them in 2 or 3 years (quite possibly 5 or more) and they haven't shifted in pitch at all. Now as for my goatskin heads on Djembe, tar, zarb, and dombek they require not only tuning but also dampening and heating (I use a fire pit for that) and they also require a much more stable environment. Additionally stock LP Aspire heads aren't that nice thick cowhide that comes on the trad congas in the LP line; they are thinner, just as LP Aspire bongo heads get the job done but the tone is lacking. Again it's a preference, and yes it is different.
Finding those quality skins for LP Aspires might be almost impossible, the drum sizing is different. For bongo you have to go to the Remo "S" series and they only make them in 1 differing size from the standard sized heads. Perhaps Remo also carries an "S" sized set for Aspire line of conga as well. If you're talking Schalloch, or other Thai produced drums they are all together sized differently than that! Aside from the trad/standard sizes... there is no standard. Perhaps Remo started producing Aspire sized heads at the insistence of Kaman music company (who owns LP). Dunno.
