This tuner is very precise and easy to use once you get used to it. It is really nice to quickly make your drum kit sound good before a show or a recording thanks to the presets you can save in it. Very satisfied!

Unlike other instruments, drums have no set tuning like a piano or guitar. With tune bot I am able to overcome the challenges of tuning them. Getting an instrument to sound right is almost harder than learning to play it. Line 6 did this in the guitar realm, and Tune Bot did this with drums. I've been looking for something like this for as long as i can remember. Tuning is now easy, where it was a crapshoot before. I DEFINITELY recommend this product!

I've been tuning by ear for 35 years and can tune pretty much any drum by lug feel, but this thing has opened new areas for me. Not only does it eliminate overtones (I can't hear the -.15 or +1.5 hz tone differences) it also gives you a reference number for quickly changing heads and getting exactly the sound and, more importantly, the feel of how you spent hours tuning the previous set. Their website has various artist readings too that you can try if you know a particular drummers sound and want to recreate it.
DIRTY LITTLE SECRET about Tune-bot - there are free aps for your smartphone that do everything this device does. And they probably have better filtering. OK maybe they won't clip onto your hoop.... Anyway I sold my Tune-bot used.Here's the biggest problem with the Gig -- it doesn't have a good "filter" mechanism like the regular Tune-bot does, which makes it almost unusable on snare drum reso heads that make a lot of overtones. Plus I found it had a hard time registering light taps, forcing you to really hit it, which you don't want to do with snare reso heads.All in all, there is no good reason to pay the money for this device. Lots of good chromatic tuning aps out there for your phone.
It seems to work pretty well - can be a bit picky about tuning across the drum, but I just move it and then it's fine. Results are consistent, and the dial matches what I'm hearing.Build quality seems decent enough, I'm not overly keen on the body being plastic, but it's not a big deal. The screen is bright and clear, the clip seems to work well enough. The little tub it comes in is a nice touch.Overall, seems like a solid purchase. I've been tuning by ear for 15 years, this gets me the same results but faster - as an engineer, that makes it worth the cost, but for most drummers it's probably a bit pricey. To be fair though, Tension Watches are about the same, and I've always found them to be way less consistent/picky.
The gizmo is simple to use ...particularly in conjunction with the tuning tables on the TuneBot website. Although its simple to use the actual process is very fidly and time consuming. I did eventualy manage to tune one set of 4 toms to one of the suggested tuning sets. But didnt really fall in love with the resulting sound to be honest, so going to try one of the other suggestions at some point before i gig with the drums. However, so far its been useless with my snare drum.. widely erratic readings..caused presumable by too many overtones that the automatic filter is supposed to ignore. Ive been told that these can be surpressed either by lightly touching the centre if the head with a finger or using a moongel pad in centre.. so ive ordered some gel pads to give ...

Ive not even bothered to try tuning the kick drum yet...i bet that will be as bad as the snare. Although its called TuneBot "gig" .. it would be impractical to use this to tune your drums on stage... it would be too noisey to work , yet alone stressful because of the time it takes. You need to do it on your own, in a quiet environment when you have a few hours to spare. im not sure i think its good value or not. The free website tuning guide is very useful..and there are free tuning apps you can use tocheck the note and frequency. Wish id tried that out first before paying a lot of money for this.
I bought this unit thinking it was going to solve all my drum tuning problems, well it really didn't (I was left with more questions than answers...and the two drummers I know who looked at it kinda laughed at me for buying it). While this unit is a useful tool, that's all it is. you still have to understand the relationship between the different sized drums in your kit and the sound or steps you want to hear between them...there is no standard tuning for drums and it seems as though everyone does it differently. there is an app that you can get for this tuner and when I punched in the size drums in my kit and tuned to the specifications listed, it sounded terrible. OK....now all that being said, where this unit does shine is once you've established a sound that you ...

OK....now all that being said, where this unit does shine is once you've established a sound that you like you can save it via the before mentioned app or just write the settings down and save. then you will be able to return your kit to these setting at anytime in the future, keeping them in your desired tuning or after changing heads. one other thing I will say, the app talks a lot about the tuning difference between the bottom and top heads. both of the very experienced drummers I worked with kinda shrugged that off as not a major factor that they ever paid attention to. I chose to not recommend because for beginners this unit is going to confuse you as much as anything, and for experienced drummers...well they already understand where they want them and how to tune them
in a word, WOW! for 43 years, I've been a sucker! lol. I hated tuning my drums. I even hired a friend to tune my current set the last time I put new heads on.I had a couple of upcoming shows. I wanted new heads. and again, I hate tuning drums, so after looking at several tuners, I chose the tune-bot gig.I decided to learn how to use it with my current heads. well, I may hate it, but apparently i'm pretty good at tuning by ear,the tune-bot clips onto the rim of your drum. tap the drum by the lugs. tune-bot gives you the frequency of each lug. it's visual, no guess work required.furthermore, the tune-bot webpage offers several resources to aid you in finding your perfect sound. this is probably THE best accessory I've ever purchased for my drums!

Do your drums sound like junk? are you lousy at tuning your drums? does your guitarist/bassist demand silence while they tune but can't shut the hell up when you want to tune? well then this product is for you! find the note you want each drum tuned to, fine tune (no pun intended) each lug tension to exact specs and make your drums sing! and you can do all this while everyone is being rude and playing over your tuning. for years i avoided tuning bc it took me forever, with this tune bot gig i tuned 4 toms, a snare and bass drum in 20 min.. which included learning how to use the tune bot gig! so just go and buy the tune bot gig already!
