The Crimplock® hoop is a hybrid design combining a crimped leg over the WeatherKing® poured channel technology, locking the film into the collar for added strength, durability and tuning consistency in high-tension marching applications. Though some drumset players utilize The Crimplock® drumheads for those benefits they are not required for drum set.
Standard Remo drumheads for drum set, use an open-channel construction which allows the film to relax and vibrate freely promoting optimum tone and resonance, and a wider tuning-range. This design is made to accommodate various counter-hoops and bearing edges out in the market today and has been used by the majority of leading manufacturers since the beginning.

Tuning your drum set drums involves evenly tightening the batter and resonant heads to achieve balanced tone and desired sustain. A resonant head tuned slightly higher than the batter head creates clearer overtones and a more focused sound across your kit.
Batter drumheads are the ones you strike and are available in different thicknesses and features to match your desired sound and playing style. Resonant drumheads, found on the bottom of the drum, enhance tone and sustain, with thinner versions used for greater sensitivity, especially on snare drums. Choosing the right drumhead depends on the drum type and the sound you want to achieve.
