    I'm a gear tech and not a drummer. I have great succes with the Evans Torque Key. It's brilliant and saves me a lot of time. I also have a digital TuneBot for fine tuning. I can't imagine going back to only using a regular drum key again.

  • @AlecWatson-ix3iy
    @AlecWatson-ix3iy Рік тому

    This is such a theoretical view. Every drummer knows that each tension rod will tension differently in its lug, depending on differences in thread pitch, condition, roundness, and flatness of the hoop, not to mention the condition of the bearing edges and loads of other factors. So all you acheive with this gadget has nothing to do with the tension of the head at each lug. Gives you a misleading result at best, with zero help to your actual pitch contol. Do it by ear, and forget about rod tensions. Unless you just want to waste time, effort and money. It' a gadet you'll try once and quicky consign to the bottom of your "bits box". What I really want is a key that just fits snugly on the rod... Can't be that difficult, but after 40 years, I'm still looking!

  • @Desh727

    I use this key in conjunction with a tune bot (or just my ear, lol). I check my batter heads daily with it because head tension and good consistent rebound are very important to me at the level that I play.

  • @sparrovski
    @sparrovski 2 роки тому

    I could never figure out where zero was so I abandoned it for the classic method unless I needed it for quick tuning jobs ie live or rehearsal ( but a spare pedal and snare is a must) I also use the lowest torque setting on my power driver with a bit so tensions are all the same then back them off by hand/key. I dont think this torque key is meant to be the be all and end all but is to assist to speed the process to a level where fine tuning by hand/key and ear begins.

  • @Davesounds
    @Davesounds 3 роки тому

    With all due respect, that's NOT the right way to use the key. The snare sounds horrible and the purpose of the key is to make the job easier, not longer. If you use the tool correctly, you'll have better results... Anyone who wants an accurate review, check Drumeo's demo here: ua-cam.com/video/5tISyonzcxA/v-deo.html (That's the CORRECT way to tune a snare!)

  • @77easy77
    @77easy77 4 роки тому

    1-that actually takes longer time 2-sometimes the screws are not 100% in tact so some screws would turn harder although they still haven't done much tension on the head. so it's definitely no recommendation unless you always have shiny new expensive drums to tune and you insist on not using your ears leaving you untrained for tuning drums which is a must learn skill for every drummer

    • @obad7633

      1 its based off of tension 2 you can still use your ears and 3 hopefully you know many people use these without issue 😂im from 2 years in the future here to tell you they work fine its not a cheat code to tuning drums but they do what they advertise.

    Can I use this drums (just as a tool) to play (and record) live my different drum kits that are in my Korg workstation keyboard via midi, so I can have more "alive" drumming in my songs? I know I can select (dedicate) one channel at a time, so I can record for instance midi data of a snare on midi channel 1 for example, yet I want to "capture" the whole playing of the drums at once (all drums played at once), yet recording midi data on different chanels, so I can than make panning, eq, compression etc., separately, is this possible?

  • @brucevilla7490
    @brucevilla7490 5 років тому

    I haven't used one but here's my assessment. That is basically a miniature click type torque wrench that mechanics use on cars and they are highly calibrated. If you drop a torque wrench it falls out of calibration and is worthless unless you get it re-calibrated. The fact that you are jumping all over the lugs and readjusting them for tension and equal sound means that it is not cranking to the exact same tension on each one, which means it is not calibrated very well. And if you drop your tuning key, which most drummers do constantly, it will become further useless.

    • @emasart
      @emasart 4 роки тому

      Maybe 8 pounds of torque at one end of the snare doesn't make the drum head sound the same as 8 pounds at the other end??? Maybe the drum heads don't work as the bolts of an engine do. Lol good point tho

    Such a useless piece of junk. You'll have to end up fine-tuning by ear at the end, which makes this piece of junk useless. Get a tune bot or iPhone tuning app.
