To tune a tenor drum set, start with the lowest drum and aim for a minor 7th chord, beginning on E4 for a set with 10", 12", 13", and 14" drums. Tune the 14" to E4, 13" to G5, 12" to B5, and 10" to D5. Adjustments may be needed depending on the number of players and the music style. Always start tuning from the lowest drum.
For over 65 years, Remo has been a leader in drumhead technology, chosen by top drum manufacturers for its quality and innovation. Leading brands like DW, Ludwig, Yamaha, and Pearl, along with custom makers and percussion specialists, trust Remo to deliver superior drumheads.

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.
