Drum Tuner: Tune Drum Heads

Tune your drums by ear, the easy way. Drum Tuner listens through your microphone, reads the pitch of the head every time you strike it, and shows you exactly how to even out each lug for a clear, resonant tone. Pick the drum and strike the center. The app shows the detected pitch in Hz, while the needle uses the active reference: the exact Kit target when one is selected, otherwise the nearest note. The preset's suggested range remains a separate starting reference. WHAT YOU GET • Tuner mode — strike the head and instantly see its pitch in Hz, plus how sharp or flat it sits, with a steady-reading meter so you know when it's locked in. • Lug map mode — a circular map of every tension rod around the drum. Tap near each lug, record it, and see at a glance which lugs read sharp (loosen) or flat (tighten) versus the average. • Drum presets — snare, rack tom, floor tom and kick, each with a suggested pitch range so you start in the right ballpark. • Even-tuning readout — the spread in cents across all lugs, so you can dial them in until the whole head sings as one. • Tuning guide — step-by-step help on seating a fresh head, working in a star pattern, and getting a clear, even tone. FOR EVERY DRUMMER Whether you're changing heads for the first time or fine-tuning a pro kit, Drum Tuner takes the mystery out of tuning. Beginners get clear guidance; experienced drummers get a fast lug-evener they'll reach for at every head change. HOW IT WORKS Pitch is detected on-device from the microphone. Strike one clear note at a time in a quiet room. When reading a lug, strike near that lug and rest a finger lightly in the center to reduce center resonance and better isolate the lug pitch.
