Overtone Labs Tune-Bot Studio Stämapparat

Electronic Drum Tuner for Consistent, Repeatable Tuning

The Overtone Labs Tune-Bot Studio is a clip-on electronic drum tuner that reads the actual pitch of each lug by listening to the drum, not by measuring head tension. It clips onto any standard drum rim and reports lug pitch and overall fundamental frequency. This device is the right choice for drummers who want repeatable tuning across an entire kit without relying solely on their ear.

What Sets the Studio Apart

Difference Mode locks in a target lug pitch and reports how many hertz each subsequent lug is above or below it. Filter Mode cleans up readings when heads are wildly out of tune by rejecting stray overtones. A 4-color LCD, streamlined keypad, and rubberized housing with a built-in rim clip complete the package.

Technical Parameters — Pitch Range, Accuracy, and Memory

The Studio's measurement engine is built for precision across the full spectrum of acoustic drums, from floor toms to piccolo snares.

• Tuning Range: 30–400 Hz (1C–4G) — covers standard drum fundamentals
• High Range Mode extends detection up to 450 Hz (1C–4A), useful for tight snare bottom heads
• Frequency Resolution: ± 0.5 Hz — detects subtle lug differences
• Response Time: 750 ms — keeps pace with sequential tapping
• Memory: 5 kits × 10 drums × 3 settings each — store top lug, bottom lug, and overall fundamental per drum
• Power: 2 × AAA batteries — portable and field-replaceable
• Dimensions: 100 × 60 × 55 mm — fits in stick bags and hardware cases
• Weight: 70 g (without batteries) — stays clipped without tipping the drum

Who Should Use the Tune-Bot Studio

This model is the right choice for working drummers, studio musicians, and serious students who need to reproduce the exact same drum sound session after session. It is especially valuable for players who change heads frequently and want to recall their preferred tuning instantly. Beginners benefit too: Difference Mode turns abstract pitch matching into a clear numerical target.

Overtone Labs — From the Original Tune-Bot to the Studio

Overtone Labs introduced the original Tune-Bot in 2012, pioneering the concept of measuring drum pitch by sound rather than by head tension. Five years later, the company released the second-generation Studio, refining the formula with a higher frequency range, a 4-color display, expanded kit memory, and a sturdier clip-on housing.
