On the Asus P4B533, I read that it has "Adjustable AGP/PCI frequency setting and CPU/memory frequency ratio".

I know the proper way to get a drummer's kit tuned correctly is to have a professional do it, but sometimes that's not an option (usually budget-wise for me) so I'm looking for pointers to tuning resources. I'm a decent mixer, but know jack about percussion. I'd like to get better...I have no illusions about becoming a professional drum tech. Anyone have a dummie's guide for me?

Stage managers/Producers,

so i'm mixing this record. but i'm mixing in a concrete basement, which is big, high ceilings [uneven wood, 9 ft], and my mix area is about 15ft cube, with the back "wall" of the cube actually going out 25 ft at least, irregularly [bookshelves, different depths, stairs, etc].

Hey I am always looking for good articles on Drum Tuning for new perspectives I ahve never seen it dicussed here so what do yall got?

Somewhere there was a killer thread on winxp tuning/tweaking
I think it was at the cubendo forums anyone know the link ?

My friend is a drummer and I just finished work on a small studio I built. His drums are in the room now and the toms (floor and 12" rack) sound like crap. He has coated Remo heads on top and clear on the bottom. They are very timpany sounding rather than rock sounding. I like a good thud in my toms and just a bit of ring.

I am going to put in a kit, and from years of talking to really great studio drummers, I want to know if their is anything I should consider when assembling the kit and the heads to keep the tuning from going flat on the Batter /resonant head situation. Is their a new material that streches over the indie rI'm to keep it tight? or do I just have to break them in and keep tuning.

how do you come up with the correct pitch for each drum?

basically i have been working the head until the sound "comes together". I'm new to REALLY tuning drums and would like to get better. ive read all the basics of tuning. when i finish with a head, they tend to [what i think] be pretty tight and high pitched for the sizes. [13x12/14x13/16x16 toms and 14x4 snare, 22x16 kick]
