You can change the pitch of any or all of your drums instantly, like magic to higher or lower pitches at any time, in between songs or sets of music, for different styles of musical genre, and YES… Tune Your Drums – Even While You Play or March!
How It Works: Perfectly uniform drum head tensions are needed to produce clean & clearly resonating acoustic sound when struck with a drumstick or mallet. Conventional drum head tensioning has many mechanical imperfections that result in uneven drum head tension and pitch. Tightening any lug distorts the tension of all other lugs. Matching the tension of batter and reson heads on any drum is nearly impossible. Plus, moving your drums and the local weather conditions also changes ALL of your drum head tensions and their pitches… (Argh!)
Drumtone’s U.S. Patented drumhead tensioning technology uses compressed air pressure inside a special Pitch-Ring you easily install between your drum rim and drum head hoop. Like a bicycle tire, air pressure inside the Pitch-Ring is exactly same 360 degrees ALWAYS!
So, pressure & tension applied to your drum head is exactly same 360 degrees ALWAYS!
As you raise or lower air pressure inside the Pitch-Rings (by an attached Pitch-Dial), your drum head pitches raise or lower too! Your two-headed drums will sound simply fantastic when both batter & resonant heads resonate precisely together at the same clear frequency!
Interesting Tip: When a drum’s reson head tension is manually set slightly lower than its batter head, the drum produces a downward pitch bend as the sound fades. A slightly higher reson head tension produces an upward pitch bend as the sound fades. Both types of drum pitch bends will follow as the drum pitch pressure is raised or lowered by the Pitch-Dial.
