About this product

Product Information

Tuning snare drums, bass drums, timpani or rack drums with the 1.59 pounds Digital Precision DrumDial Drum Tuner is easy, precise and reliable. The drum tuner measures the tympanic pressure and provides immediate and accurate results. Because the drum tuner measures the tympanic pressure, a percussionist no longer has to hit the drums to tune his/her drums. However, the drum tuner does not measure the tension rod torque.

  • You will be surprised what your drum heads are really doing

    Having played Latin percussion for over 50 years I have been tuning drums by ear for years. I never really thought I needed a tuner when I was younger, but being older has helped open up to different ideas. I was really surprised when I put the DrumDial on my heads and found out just how irregular the head tension was going around the drums before adjustment. This is an excellent tool to help keep your drums from fighting themselves with high and low head pressures on the same head. It takes awhile to do it, and it really helps to take off the heads and just start from scratch, but it is well worth it and so easy with the DrumDial. Just be patient and keep going around. Your ears will love it, lol.

  • A great tool, easy to use.

    I am a musician but not a percussionist. This tool really speeds up the process of refining the tuning of drums in band camp or guest conducting situations.

  • HAVE you tried this thing??

    For 24 years I have played drums and for 24 years I have hated tuning them and never felt like I nailed it. This device is magical. It feels solid and like something you will have forever if you take care of it, so the cost is not much in drum dollars. It's a simple but game-changing invention which couldn't be easier to grasp after a quick look at the basic instructions. It made the beat-up heads on my cheap travel kit sound great beyond all expectation on the first go-round. I'll never tune a drum without it again. I can't fathom anyone being so naturally accurate at tuning by feel that this wouldn't be a must for their tool kit. This is all honest passion by the way, I received nothing for this review.

  • A must have !!

    I already have one but just ordered another one for a Christmas present. I have total confidence in these things. I myself use mine for keeping my banjo head at proper tension to get the most sound out of it. It really does take the thud out & puts the clear crisp clarity sound back in a banjo. If you haven’t got one then you won’t be sorry if you buy one. I personally try to keep the tension at or about 90-91 on my banjos. This dial takes all the guess work out.

  • High quality drum head tension tuner

    This is a high quality instrument for measuring, and fine tuning, the head tension on a drum. In my case I used it to tune the head tension on a banjo. It is easy to use and it makes it easy to locate the tight or slack areas of the head.

  • Drum Dial

    Give some insight into drum tuning. I am not a percussionist but anything that would quantify membrane tension can't hurt. It is really good for equalizing tensions across the lugs. I tried using tuning apps but they don't always like to lock into the correct mode. I would really like to use a sweep frequency meter and to measure the resonances but who has the time?

  • Drumdile is effective and fun !!!

    The DrumDile is a great way to tune Banjo Drum Heads . I measured 3 of my Banjos and 2 of them had loose drum heads . When I tightened them up the Banjo sounded much better . The suggested tension is 89 to 92 on the dial for Banjos . I suppose other Drums also have optimal tensions or you can experiment at different tensions , but don't bust your heads going to tight. That could be cool to watch , maybe dangerous !

  • Great tuning aid!

    It's best to learn how to tune your kit by ear. When tuning by ear is achieved, then one should use this as a tool to tweak and get a near perfect tone from each of the drums from your kit. Great tool to have for a quick way to get each drum back in tune to where it was after a new head swap! My kit sounds phenomenal thanks to the aid of this tool... HIGHLY recommend!

  • Dial It In !!

    Been open tuning drums 40+ years, This now gives a number I can associate with my hearing, And the device also gives a good idea of how true the bearing edge is. I highly recommend this product to any drummer that wants to be more accurate in their tuning.
