Use this chord theory to tune your drums as well. Tune your kick to the low note, the snare to the middle note and the hi-hats to the high note.

Thank you for that comment! Never thought of it that that simple.

People usually just say tune your drums...

im like... i thought they were...

Mikel Jorgensen: this will indeed work most of the time. It's obvious you know what you are writing about. Of course, you can experiment various things.. like overlaying drums to form chords. I did that.. and it works quite well for snares.
You can check a demo tutorial I've made which confirms what M.J said: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=behK0UE2Eoc

quick question, since the B G A D is on the right of the sharpened notes, is that how we got those notes? will tha work every time? counting backwards all the way through the chord chart i mean

I think the circle of fifths is a little more intuitive. It doesn't really matter though. Chords and scales are important to understand, but learning the methods of transposing sheet music isn't that useful nowadays. I doubt there are many classical musicians on here, and if there were, they probably would already know these things. You should have explained that scales are simply repeated interval patterns.
