2. After making sure that the drum skin is tight, use the hammer head of your drumstick to tap the edge of the drum surface at each screw position in the clockwise direction to listen to whether the sound is the same, if the pitch is high, relax a little, and if the pitch is low, tighten it until the timbre is the same.

3. Add a quilt to the drum, the purpose is to absorb sound, and the timbre of the kick drum is thicker, this method is advisable, but it is best if you can buy a sponge and stuff it in, because the sound absorption effect of the sponge is incomparable to the quilt.
