Really superb video! It would be great if you made a video of the gretsch rn2 bop kit with the 3 different tuning: high, medium, low. Lots of people are waiting for this.

82 over 85 versatile tuning :) and 85 over 85 for bop

What do you intend with 70,75,ecc?Which is the unit? Is a frequency or other? Many thanks in advance

[@bostondrum]

Tension as measured with the Drum Dial. This is part two of the video; the methodology is explained in part one.

[@ryanzildjian]

Great videos. Any way you can do it with Tunebot readings?

[@brianfoster7486]

Why not do 70 / 75?

[@bsrob1]

I bet this one sounds meaty, fat and lots of attack from the batter head. I've always like a tighter bottom head and medium/loose tension on my toms.
