Tips for using a TMD
For accurate tuning, always ensure that the head is horizontal on the drum being tuned, and never try to take a reading in a place that has muffling under the head. Place the TMD on the head in front of the tension point where the bolt or claw is. Measure each tension point before making any adjustments. Pick any reading from one of the zones as a starting point. Make adjustments to each tension point until they all read the same number. This may take going around the drum two or three times at first. You will want to do this to both heads if they can be tuned independently of each other.
