Drummers & Drum Techs: Let’s Talk Real!

A drum tech’s job isn’t just rolling cases and setting up stands. A true drum tech knows how to:
✅ Tune drums for any gig
✅ Set up ergonomically for comfort & flow
✅ Keep consistency so the kit feels like “home”
✅ Work with sound engineers for the best mix

If your tech doesn’t get this yet, don’t just blame — guide them. Encourage training, workshops, and growth.

Because a skilled drum tech isn’t just backstage help — they’re part of your sound, your groove, and your success. 🥁🔥

When the FOH Engineer shouts:
Hey Tech, can you tune those drums?

… and you realize drum tuning is not in your skill tree.

Suddenly, you stand tall, raise your hands like a lawyer in court, and say:

I invoke my RIGHTS as a backliner! I am NOT licensed to alter frequencies of wooden barrels with goat skin toppings! I only roll cases, tighten hardware, and look busy with a drum key for intimidation purposes. Anything beyond that is a violation of the Drum Tech–Union–Code 101 Section ‘Don’t Break the Drummer’s Tone.’

Therefore, I rest my case, and I pass the drum key back to the rightful owner… the drummer himself.’ 🥁⚖️😂

FOH Is Your Best Friend – Learn Their Language

You may think your job stops at the kit. Nope!

If you want to be respected in the big leagues, you need to work with the Front of House (FOH) engineer—not around them.

Here’s why:

•FOH controls what the audience hears.
•FOH can make a good kit sound massive—or muddy.
•FOH can make or break the drummer’s experience on stage and in their ears.

So build a relationship.

Learn how to:
✓Speak their language: Talk about EQ, mic bleed, phase issues, and gate thresholds without guessing.

✓Ask what they need: Do they want less ring? More attack? Shorter decay?

✓Watch how they mix: You’ll learn a lot just by observing their choices.

Be clear and respectful when they’re troubleshooting—don’t get defensive.

The best Drum Techs work hand in hand with FOH.
You’re not tuning just for the drummer—you’re tuning for the room.

Dialing in the Pearl Drums Decade Maple 7pc Kit 🔧🥁

Giving it that tight, focused tuning that cuts perfectly for Gospel grooves and Rock power. Maple shells naturally bring warmth and body, but when tuned up tighter, they deliver extra attack, clarity, and resonance that sit beautifully in the mix for both live and studio settings.

Each drum is carefully brought up to pitch for maximum sustain without choking the tone — letting the kit breathe while still staying punchy. The goal is to get that sweet balance: deep yet articulate lows on the kick, crack and snap on the snare, and singing toms with controlled resonance.

The right tuning makes the difference between good sound and great sound.

Focused on achieving a balanced tension across the heads — tightening the Ludwig Classic Oak toms for a crisp attack while keeping the resonance alive.

Great for gospel and rock tones 🥁🔥

Still on a high from batch of my Drum Tech Workshop yesterday at YAVL Training Services 🙌

Big respect and thanks to Sir Mark Anthony Yulo and his amazing team for opening their doors and guiding us throughout the session. The energy, the learning, and the exchange of ideas were truly priceless.

Of course, huge gratitude to JB Music Philippines for the solid support that makes events like this possible. 🙏

Every batch keeps proving one thing—drum teching is not just about setting up gear, it’s about efficiency, trust, and passion for music.

Excited for the next one! 🥁✨

In live music, soundcheck is your proving ground. You’re not there to take your sweet time—you’re there to show the artist and crew that you’ve got it locked: on time, organized, and ready for anything.

✅ Label your cases.
✅ Set up in zones.
✅ Build from the throne out.
✅ Tune quick, not perfect.

The rookie mistake? Over-tweaking while everyone’s waiting. Get it solid first, fine-tune later. Trust your system.

🥁 Be the tech everyone remembers for speed and precision.
