To change the pitch on a talking drum, you adjust the tension of the drumhead by squeezing or releasing the two ropes on either side of the drum. Tightening the ropes raises the pitch, while loosening them lowers it. The player's hand positioning and pressure on the drumhead also influence the pitch and tonal quality while playing. This technique allows for expressive melodies and communication, characteristic of the talking drum's unique sound.
