### 1/5 — Da migliorare.

*2024-03-11, version 1.6*

Non è stabile, fa rumore sugli strumenti, dovete migliorarlo Con nuovo aggiornamento

### 1/5 — Not working

*2021-07-18, version 1.6*

Great samples, but can’t get any playable sound out of it in standalone mode nor Audiobus / AUM. The app keeps silence and then crashes. Please fix ASAP

### 1/5 — Not usable with any daw

*2021-02-06, version 1.6*

Constantly crashes after trying to use it via Cubasis 3, Audiobus, AUM etc. Fix it please.

### 1/5 — Scrap

*2020-06-24, version 1.6*

This drum machine skips and lags perfect thing to not keep a beat thanks for taking my 20 bucks

### 1/5 — Deceiving

*2020-03-21, version 1.6*

I was under the impression that the presets were drum patterns that would be added to DAWs.  They’re not. Total waste of money.

### 1/5 — No comprar

*2019-12-31, version 1.6*

Subí el buffer hasta 1024 y sigue haciendo ruidos, fue una mala compra, no se puede utilizar

### 4/5 — PLEASE add Auv3 multi out support!

*2021-06-06, version 1.6*

Great sounds. Commercially viable. Just desperately waiting for Auv3 compatibility (hopefully with multi-out) so this can be my only acoustic drummer in Cubasis 3. I’d pay to upgrade to this functionality.

Best drum sounds on iOS, they just feel trapped.

### 4/5 — AUv3 Please?

*2020-04-18*

Is there any way you can make this an AUv3?

Would future proof the app, a large amount.

Update.
An attentive and responsive developer helms this app, that is good news! Thank you for the recent response, looking forward to future updates!

**Developer response:** Thank you for your review! I’m working on it.

### 4/5 — A Promising Start!

*2019-09-28*

Look familiar? It’s almost like those desktop apps. An ambitious start to what may be a great option for those of us that produce music with real drums kits.

Needs some streamlining and efficiency tweaks. If you like this concept consider supporting this dev to help them see it grow and mature.

### 5/5 — Fantastic!

*2021-10-21*

I just downloaded this app, and I already love it. I’ve been looking for a good midi drumming app and I hadn’t found anything up to this point other than GarageBand, and I personally don’t like the midi drum sounds in GarageBand. But these sounds are great! And it’s so easy to map the sounds to your electric drum kit. 

The only thing I will say is that I wish you all would make a plugin version for GarageBand in iOS. That and the font in the app is a little hard to read. But everything else is fantastic!

### 5/5 — Great app for easy midi learn and finger drumming

*2021-09-01, version 1.6*

After getting crazy with my Korg Nanokey studio and it’s complicate software I came along this beautiful app with easy midi learn function and good sound. 
Two only little suggestions:
1) please let us map also the volume for each drum to our midi controller knobs.
2) please make negative gain on the eq to tame harsh frequencies

### 5/5 — Best Drums

*2020-12-05, version 1.6*

So,it’s a huge collection of high end drum samples at a bargain price.what’s not to like. THE top drum app.

### 5/5 — Tremendous value drumkit, cannot complain.

*2020-11-13, version 1.6*

For the price this was I simply grabbed it to try out.  I could have bought some candy and had less fun and be less healthy, for the same price.  The sounds are actually really well thought-out, arguably more nuanced than other kits.  It does not have AUV3 but for the price, that’s a hash criticism.

Lastly, I do have a couple of Yamaha compact drum kits, with MIDI outputs, that I am keen to wire into the ipad and see how that goes, but have not done so yet - I will update when I try that out.

The main strengths are probably that you can add your own samples, to make a drumkit to your own taste.  Plus, you are able to trigger these from a MIDI device (eg one of my compact Yamaha drum kits).  I have given it 5 stars despite it not having AUV3 capability, because it seems wrong to judge an app at this price, for a component or feature, the developer does not even claim it has.

I did try it through IAA in GarageBand, and it was playable, although I did not get it to record on that occasion.  It did however fire up from within garageband, and I got back into garageband after playing a bit, without a crash.  This simple feat, much more expensive apps (eg some synths I could mention), cannot manage.

So well done to the Dev, this is a triumph.  It’s just not a top-end all-singing all-dancing triumph, and nobody really ought to be expecting that, as Apple moves the goalposts and this app does not ask the earth in payment.

### 5/5 — Get this app... I love it!!!

*2020-10-28, version 1.6*

Eduard you are a genius!! Such a cool human/developer👌 I absolutely love your app. How easy it was... hook up my E-Drums... open BarbaX Drums... PLAY!! Wanna change the sounds... few seconds... done!! Wanna reassign sounds to different pads... few seconds... done!! Oh... maybe slap a few effects on individual sounds... wait for it... done!! Hey... why not save your changes as your own preset kit for repeated use... tap, tap, tap... done!! It’s a no-brainer... it’s a 5 for me!!!

### 5/5 — Been sampling this for a while

*2020-08-31*

Too bad this little baby isn’t AUV3! But since most of drumming I do it either with Drambo or DigiStix / EG Pulse, the truth is what I want the most is simply a good soundbank for drums. 

BarbaXDrums is pretty much that, one of the best sample libraries for acoustic (and other types) of drums. Considering I got this for a single buck while it was on sale, I can definitely say this is one of the best purchases I made over the year in music production for iOS. 

Still not done sampling all of it! But I have a TON of nice samples on my drum samples folder in AudioShare and the main reasons I’ve been able to get this quality library has been: 

Purchasing BarbaXDrums, purchasing DM1.... and then sampling forever lol.

**Developer response:** Thank you so much for your feedback✨👍🏻

### 5/5 — Excelente app

*2020-08-09, version 1.6*

Muy buena app, funcionó solo al conectar mi Roland vdrums!! Podría tener más sonidos

### 5/5 — Unbelievable! AAA

*2020-06-07, version 1.6*

Been an E-Drummer for 15 years and would have never imagined you would be able to buy a drum brain for $15! Big shout out to the developer. I hope you continue with this concept as it will be a game changer. 🔥🔥🔥

### 5/5 — Bargain!

*2020-04-14, version 1.6*

Got this at a reduced price,at its original price it’s still a bargain.Has turned my excellent drum set with a rubbish module into a great practice and recording set. Closest thing to Addictive Drums on iOS.Would happily pay for more sounds. Cheers.

### 5/5 — An incredibly nice app!

*2020-04-10*

Real drums
