Lug balance

123456average--

Tap a lug to select it, then strike the head near that lug.

Selected lug: 1. Even out the ring so every lug reads close to the average.

Target pitch presets

Tune to a starting-point pitch by drum and feel - then trust your ears.

Pro: tune to genre target pitches instead of just evening out the lugs.

Unlock Pro - $9

Saved tunings

Store a kit's tuning and recall it after the next head change.

Pro: save and recall your tunings per drum and kit.

How it works

  1. 1 Start the microphone and pick how many lugs your drum has.
  2. 2 Strike the head a couple inches in from each lug. DrumPitch reads the resonant pitch at that spot and drops it on the lug ring.
  3. 3 Tighten or loosen the lugs that read sharp or flat until the whole ring evens out. The head is now in tune with itself.

Tip: mute the bottom (resonant) head while you tune the batter so the reading stays clean. Detection works best on toms and snares; very low kicks are harder for any mic-based tuner.

Questions

Does my audio get uploaded?

No. All pitch detection runs in your browser. The mic feed never leaves your device.

Do I need a quiet room?

Quieter is better. Background noise and other drums ringing can throw off any mic-based tuner, so mute what you are not tuning.

Is the Pro unlock a subscription?

No. It is a single $9 payment that unlocks the Pro features for good.
