Zu viele Bugs für praktische Nutzung

Die Idee ist toll und die Umsetzung eigentlich super: Lieder werden zerlegt in einzeln übbare Sequenzen, diese dann auch noch in verschiedenen Schwierigkeitsstufen. Außerdem passt sich die Geschwindigkeit dynamisch an meinen Skill an. Eigentlich perfekt zum Drum lernen.
ABER:
Die App hat einige Bugs, die das Ganze nutzlos machen. Z.B. hängt sich die Übung oft beim ersten Beat auf und ich muss alles nochmal starten. Manchmal werden MIDI-Signale falsch erkannt und so falsche Oder ungültige Instrumente erkannt.
Der Support reagiert leider gar nicht auf Anfragen.
Sehr schade!

Zu verzögert und Abstürze

Ist echt nicht schlecht aber die Software ist nicht stabil und auch nicht exakt synchronisiert mit dem Schlagzeug.

Definitely 💯 PLEASE READ THIS!!!

I downloaded this game so I can be a GOAT at playing the drums. (Spoiler alert: IT DID!!). This app is so HELPFUL. Though you do have to pay for more songs to learn and you cannot search up your favorite song to play. Still though, it is very helpful. 😊

I love it but I can’t tell when it is open high hat or closed¡ other than that AMAZING A MUST HAVE

Great app but interface needs getting used to

App is done well but the interface could be a bit more intuitive.

It took quite a while to find a correct setting so that the app recognizes the correct hit at the right time.

Sorry for the first review, my son who uses this app all the time was just trying to get the feedback pop up to go away to play drums!

The note highway is an excellent method to start playing songs. It just gets you playing as it feels like a game. My son’s ability to play drums flourished with this app. It also has attracted his sisters to sit and play too. Overall this is a great and fun app to learn drums!

I have a lot of fun in this game

Shout out to 66samus

This app is the perfect teacher

Muito delay

Já conectei com o cabo pq pelo Bluetooth já estava com mt delay daí coloquei o cabo e n mudou praticamente nada

Response from developer

Thanks for your feedback, and sorry to hear you're still experiencing delay. We'd love to help troubleshoot this, please reach out to us at support@beatlii.com with details about your device and drum kit, and we'll guide you through the steps to improve performance.

Nice but…

I want to start of my saying I love the lesson structure, the music is fantastic, and the interface is clean and pretty. That being said, having just gotten my Titan 75, I’ve been trying out different drum lesson apps and Beatlii seems to be the only one having trouble with crosstalk between the kick pedal and crash, and not recognizing when the hi hat pedal is down randomly. I want to love it and subscribe but when every other app seems to recognize my kicks and pedal presses fine, I can’t justify it. I’ll definitely keep an eye on it though and try back in a few months after some updates though because it really is a great app otherwise.

Response from developer

Thanks so much for the kind words and thoughtful feedback, we’re really glad to hear you’re enjoying the lesson structure and overall design. We’re sorry to hear about the crosstalk and hi-hat pedal issues with your Titan 75. That’s definitely not the experience we want anyone to have. If you're open to it, we’d love to investigate further and see if we can help. Could you drop us a quick message at support@beatlii.com with a bit more info about your setup? Thanks again for giving Beatlii a try. We really hope we can make it work better for you soon.

Awesome.. Real Drum notation

Works really well on Windows & iPad with a Yamaha DTX8 via usb cable connection… bit of fiddling to get sound synced on laptop. No issues with iPad… Then hours of fun.. So glad there is proper drum notation… makes it a serious learning tool….Only glitch I’ve noticed is some songs occasionally start on beat 3 instead of beat 4…. Great product! Keep up the good work! … Adding a drum rudiments section would be nice…

Response from developer

Thanks so much for the kind words. We’re really happy to hear you’re enjoying Beatlii and that the drum notation is hitting the mark. That’s exactly what we’re aiming for. Thanks as well for pointing out the occasional count-in issue and for the suggestion about adding a rudiments section. Both are great pieces of feedback and have been shared with our team. Thanks for sharing your experience and support!

Top Tier Drumming App - Highly Effective

Tried Drumeo, it was the catalyst for getting into drumming.., but the price and overwhelming content slowed my progress.

^I LOVE the amount of content, it’s just too much because I want to dive into it all and that’s counterproductive for me, personally.

Now, I came upon Beatlii hearing another drumming mention it.
I gave it a shot and was VERY happy with the entire experience.

From plugging in my e-kit to the first lessons and extremely helpful guidance via professionally written descriptions, it was a blast. Like Christmas morning, I could sense I was getting somewhere.

Then I jumped ahead, having learned Enter The Sandman, and was both excited and humbled.

I was reminded why I was there. To learn to play the drums, for real.

The practices and freedom to repeat sections or control tempo, not to mention the full variety of genres accessible right away.

Presenting the songs in difficulty stages while keeping true to teaching the fundamentals and theories was “chef’s kiss”.

No me deja conectarme con mi batería por bluetooth

Works great

Seems like the devs have got their act together since I first tried this app. Using the PC version and really enjoying it, works great with my edrumin10 based kit, no lag, easy to setup. Got lifetime membership on offer so great value for the money.

Freedrum 2 Sticks not visible anymore

I first downloaded this app when it was still under the freedrum brand. Even had the subscription for a while. But there seems to be not much (if any) active development with the same 5 drum kits in the app since forever. Now I can't even see the freedrum sticks anymore to check if they are fully charged.

Needs improvement of ASIO Drivers

I'm using a NUX DM-8 and the only way to use it is to use audio from iphone with an external sound card and midi on Bluetooth. If I use the USB cable every time I move any preset in the NUX Console it goes stuck and I have to reset everything

Open the app for people to play music

People are leaving Melodics to play music with lyrics. Give us access to the music without having to go through the lessons. I’d pay a higher amount monthly if I could play the songs.

I won’t even get past the free trial now, I can already play drums. Be smarter about how you’re converting customers from apps that are included with Roland Electronic kits

Response from developer

Thanks for the feedback, we really appreciate it. The free course you played is designed so drummers of all levels can try a song at their own level. Once you start the free trial, you get access to all courses and all difficulty levels, and you can jump straight into the course that matches your current skill level. You don’t need to go through beginner lessons if you’re already an experienced player.

Good but complaint n suggestion

Overall I like the apps organization, theme, and idea.
One complaint though…I wish there was more free stuff.
And, my suggestion: Maybe make it possible to play with non electronic drum kits irl? Maybe use the camera to scan the kit or something? Maybe have a sound recognition system so it shows drum sheets for the song and can tell you if you’re playing right on time or not? And then maybe at the end how much accuracy / points you got and your record? Even if it’s not interactive like that, if you just release some sheet music to follow along too, that’d be amazing. For people who pay you could allow them to play additional songs with free people only playing selective songs or lessons?

Response from developer

Thanks for your feedback! We don’t support acoustic drum kits, but you can still use Beatlii’s Sheet Music mode to follow along and get direct feedback on your timing and accuracy when using an e-kit. If you’d like some help finding or setting up these features, feel free to reach out to us at support@beatlii.com

Very fun way to practice drumming!

This is a great app to practice drumming and playing along with songs. Great gamification and visual cues to learn the drums!

Quality learning and skills app for beginner drummers

I started out with the Freedrum2 sticks and the app. And while that setup was a bit buggy but mostly consistent, it gave me a good early grasp as a beginning drummer. After picking up an e-kit I kept up with Beatlii and it’s been a great way to develop musical skills I’d always hoped I could. Enjoying the progressions, and will often go back to previous songs to catch up on old beats. Has allowed me to record and play to my friend’s recorded guitar music with more confidence.
