### 2/5 — Average! Lacking in 'taught' material

*2013-06-10*

The major issue I have with this app is that it only 'teaches' 2 basic rhythms!

The 'rhythms' section is basically for the drummer just to show off playing fast! There is no way you could easily lean to play those rhythms.

In my opinion all of these rhythms need to be shown very slowly, beat by beat.

### 3/5 — Peu mieux faire

*2012-05-05*

Application assez légère dans son ensemble

### 3/5 — Für den Preis...

*2011-09-26*

...kann man mehr erwarten als die paar Toques, bin enttäuscht.
Gemacht ist es relativ gut, wenn auch sehr simpel. Ein Anfänger tut sich schwer mit dem Nachvollziehen.

### 4/5 — Good job, maybe a little rushed...

*2011-09-09*

Very decent programme, although not as good as the berimbau version. It works nicely as a additional tool for beginners, some more patterns and different beats would be nice though, also, how about step by step introductions to the other beats mentioned? Also, calling it "the right way to play atabaque" and then using a modern conga instead of a classic atabaque with rope tuning or at least one as it is used in candomblė (pronounced with emphasis on the last syllable btw!) gives me a mixed impression. All in all however, another good job, although this one seems a bit more rushed and thus less thought through than the berimbau version.

### 5/5 — AWESOME!

*2012-12-12*

I've just started Capoeira and started playing Berimbau and Atabaque and could not find any description of the right patterns and variations.
Axe!!

### 5/5 — really useful for beginners

*2012-12-11*

there is a Cordao de Ouro teacher showing atabaque technics and rhythms. as a capoeira newbie, i actually learned some tricks and patterns from this app so i definitely will recommend it to everyone in my group.
thanks, AXE!
