Best Answer

Drum notation differs completely from normal musical notation. On for example a piano when you see a note on the stave it corresponds to a note on the piano, the same note. On a drum kit however each note on the stave represents a different drum. There is then also different symbols for other parts like the hi-hats.

If you are talking about tuning then you can tune drums to any note, but i advise you to tune the drums to the notes of the song if you are playing along to one or just to what you like. Obviously the smaller the drum the higher higher the sound will be anyway.
