can anyone tell me how to tune tritoms?
thanks

We'll need to hold a séance to talk to someone that marched 'em.

Just kidding... I actually marched tri-toms my first season on marching drums! On the big ol' ancient tubs I had, I think the interval between each drum was pretty close to a major third. The tuning you'll use will depend on what kind/size your drums are. I think the tris I marched were 1970's Ludwigs, 12"-14"-16".

And just for reference, I've got a few years (or more) on most of the guys on these forums, but I'm not that old. When my junior high school started a marching line, we were playing on hand-me-down drums that were older than we were.

nice.

Does anyone know how phantom regiment tunes their tenor line?

expertly.

and magically

My tri-toms sound kinda dull, and I want them more crisp, but I JUST broke a head and don't want to over-tighten them.

I want the closest I can get to Blue Devil's tenor's sound.

Not sure on their sizes.

6,8,10,12,13,14.

The use some type of remo pinstripe head. The problem may be that your tri-toms are so old that they cannot achieve the highest quality of tone that the major drum corps have today.
