Drum Tech's DTS One-Touch DrumTuning System retrofits to most 'hoop and tension rod' type acoustic drums, streamlining the entire tuning process. Once the DTS is installed, turning individual tension rods is no longer necessary, since it allows each drumhead's pitch to be raised or lowered with one adjustment. This allows drummers to play the drum while simultaneously adjusting the tuning between the top and bottom heads.

Achieving the proper pitch relationship between the top and bottom heads will cause a drum to sing with a rich and full tone. Even with unequal tension among tension rods, a drum will still have a rich tone if the top and bottom heads are in tune with each other. In order to find this precise tuning, the top head has to be struck while the top and bottom head (which only resonates) are brought into tune with each other. The sweet spot between the heads is then found by ear while sweeping the top or bottom head through its range, much like tuning a guitar. However, this process is practically impossible through standard drum tuning. Installation of the DTS on the top and bottom heads of a drum make this precise head-to-head tuning possible in just seconds. In fact, by installing the DTS on just the bottom head, the most difficult part of drum tuning is overcome. Now it's easy to hear the way your drums were meant to sound using the DTS One-Touch Drum Tuning System.
