True, but you don't have to worry about that if the 808 is the bass line, like I'm talking about.
The drummer in my last band tuned his toms to the first five notes of the major scale, but I don't remember what key. He tuned the kick and snare so that they had the right presence for the room we were playing in, and when he started using two snares I'm pretty sure one was a flat 9th to the other snare.
