Unison tuning, or batter and reso tuned to the same pitch, is something that seems to throw a lot of people off in concept. If you’ve spent any amount of time experimenting with tuning, you’ve likely figured out some intervals that you prefer with your drums. Today we wanted to demonstrate what a unison tuning can sound like in comparison to an alternative interval as well as the juxtaposition of different intervals for different drums.
