So, I've been looking into Sleishman drums as of late. For those of you that don't know about them both heads tune to the same pitch with their system.
This really got me thinking about tuning. On a normal drum is there really a good reason to tune the bottom head different from the top head? When I've done this I've always gotten a funky pitch bend that has always been undesirable.
Before I go and buy a drumset that can only tune both heads the same I want to really consider if there's any advantage at all to being able to tune the top and bottom heads differently.
