Reviews for Drum Tuner - iDrumTune Pro

Readings jump all over the place. I can get a 74hz measurement at one lug and matching all the way around. Change nothing then get a 110 with minor variances on the other. So far it seems pretty inaccurate

Not great , it's just not accurate enough , hit my snare a couple of times in the same place and got different readings , it's a great idea but just not accurate enough , wish it gave accurate notation readings as well as Hz

this app was off every time. I thought since it was paid that it was going to give me better results than the free one that I downloaded. not so! if you are serious about improving your skill in drum tuning and getting an accurate tune every time, do not go with this app!

I didnt even hesitate . Have the last version on my old phone and 8 bucks is definitly worth it. 2 years into drums and it actually coaches and teaches you about tones frequencies etc along with the tuning feature. Cant go wrong for 8 bucks .

constantly hangs, reads incorrectly. after less than 1 day i want my money back. The pitch tuning was very inaccurate, i couldn't get the lug tuning to work at all, the resonant tuning is very inaccurate and the specral analyzer was limited to a max of 400 Hz. i have no use for this app.

Very useful tools. It worked perfectly. The tool is even flexible enough to go beyond what it says it can do. If you use the 1.5 ratio method, your reso head frequency will be higher than the batter head. Trying tuning the reso head to a 1.5 ratio, and your reso head will have a lower frequency than your batter head, which I prefer. Any thoughts I had regarding the app resulted in a very fast response.

The app is amazing and the work this developer put in is amazing. I have two gripes however. First is that the mic sensitivity setting has to be changed every time you reopen the app. The second is that occasionally the mic will stop listening and you have to exit the app and open it again. Once these are fixed definitely 5 stars.

I have this on my Google pixel 3 and so far so good! Definitely makes tubing drums easier and I can say following the pitch, then lug, and then resonant relation, toms are sound really good. There are a few things that are annoying like having to go back to main menu and then back into certain functions, but maybe it's just me not knowing certain things. I did have an issue this last time where I couldn't get RTF to change even thought I kept changing tuning, but just showed me RTF of 1.

Edit: Thanks for your reply though I have tried all the steps you listed below and still had no luck. I understand how drum tuning works and still think there may be an error on this app. The idea is there and I see others have had a positive experience with this app. Though in my experience I could not get this app to work properly on my smart phone, I was getting incorrect readings/no reading at all. I did reach out via email when I first purchased the app but never received a reply.

I have been a garage drummer for 45 plus years. Always had trouble tuning my drums. Bought the tension dial thingy, tried by ear, watched many videos. I installed the IDrum Tune Pro. My cheap Ludwig snare was close to what I wanted it to sound but never could get that sweet spot. I read your Idrum manual and in 1 hour I finally got that snare to sound really sweet. I never thought about the frequency while tuning. And the 1.75 tuning technic is what did it for me. Very nice product. Best $ 6.99

I just downloaded and tried a few of these things, and this is the only one that worked at all and it even worked for HAND DRUMS, so that alone is worth five stars and five bucks. The lug-by-lug feature is great (check out the YouTube clip). And the customer care is quick, thorough and personal, with respect to both problems and suggestions. Check it out!

I've been drumming for 54 yrs and have a pretty good handle on tuning. I checked out Dr. Rob's YouTube videos and was very interested and purchased the app....glad I did! This app will help you dial in various sounds and explore your kit. Obviously, the app is on your phone and you can take it to the gig and adjust your kit very quicky....give this app a shot!!

This app is a revelation. There's a learning curve and extraneous noises will throw it off but this makes my drums finally sound great. I've played for 40 years and never really could get the drums to sound good until using this. Every drummer should use this.

As if I paid money for this. Worked one time, went once around the snare and then went to double check if red numbers needed Tuned higher or lower, instead of just taking me back to the numbers I had around my snare the whole thing had reset and I haven't been able to get a reading since. On any drum on my kit. I'm upset to think that the money I spent on this is probably going towards advertising this app at someone else that will fall for it. Any chance of a refund?

Bought it and it works. BUT: I don't understand why there is no audible reference note. Let's say I want to tune a tom to E. Surely the app should let me hear an E to help matching. Most of us won't be able to guess what the pitch will be by looking at a drawing of a keyboard and frequency numbers. Add a tuning reference note for each key and make the app REALLY good. P.s I have only used it once, so maybe there is a built in aid that I haven't found?

I have been playing for 30 plus years and really didn't think about actually tuning drums until the last few years so I have been experimenting a lot. The pitch and lug tuning are straight forward and get you 75% of the way there but the resonant tuning tool is an eye opener. I used the suggested 1.5 ratio and the drums just sing. My drums have never sounded better. Would like to see some way of saving settings or drum kits like I have seen on a few other apps.

Save yourself the frustration of trying to tune your drums with a generic instrument tuner. I spent a couple of days trying other tuners before finding this one. After watching the tutorial and reading the instructions this is pretty clear cut. I'm really impressed with how this tuner catches the pitch when other apps just can't quite do it. What really puts the icing on the cake is this app isn't subscription based! Well done. Highly recommended

probably the least reliable tuning software I've ever used. if you want to tune to specific frequencies just use a tunebot. they're actually accurate. edit in response: definitely not a competitor, but go ahead and keep condescending anybody that has anything negative to say in your reviews. that'll be great for business.

I love this app!! Yeah, I was initially put off by some poor ratings but took the plunge based on the videos. I'm glad I trusted my gut and it works just fine. Simply get the drums near enough in tune by ear and start working with the app to do the rest. Getting the batter and reso heads to sing with the 1.5RTF figure can seem like 1 step forwards and 2 back at times, but it does work - just make very minor adjustments to both heads as per screen instructions. It's well worth the cost, anyway.

Very good app. It appears to be accurate and certainly gives very consistent results. The lug tuner is excellent and is the only app I've found to work for this so far. The only criticism I have is that it freezes ...a lot. It mostly freezes for me when switching between modes, so not a huge issue and It is easy enough to fix by closing and re-opening the app and it's a lot cheaper than a separate drum-bot tuner. But if you find it's not recognising a drum strike, it's probably frozen
