Adjusting the Head

Adjusting the Head Tension

For Accurate Positional Sensing

On the PD-125/105, adjusting
the head tension affects only
the head response, and not the
pitch of the sound, as it would
on an acoustic drum.

Head tension may change over
a period of time, so readjust
when necessary.

Heads MUST BE TUNED BEFORE PLAYING.

Like with an acoustic drum, accurate and equal head tension is needed for correct
triggering response.
