Can you Please add a setting where we can reverse position of the pads like you did on DigiStix2 you don’t have to modify the app if you don’t have a button for it just add it in the Settings app
Possibly a great app but difficult for swing rhythms
This is a very intuitive and flexible app. It’s well laid out and has lots of great drumkit sounds for all musical tastes. As an AUV3 plug-in it’s also very easy to use.
However, there is one maddening thing. When I set the 8th note swing to 100% on a 4/4 meter, it does not produce the proper swing effect of a 12/8 meter. In the long-short pattern of a beat, the long note is slightly shorter than two thirds of the beat and the short note is slightly longer one third. I have tried resolving this by using a 6/8 time meter instead. This produces the swing effect, but the metronome’s BPM still only measures quarter notes. I cannot find a way to make it measure the triplets. This makes the app not ideal for slower swing rhythms especially when synching with some AUV3 hosts. Will give 5 stars if the developers can offer a solution to this.

Too many defects
For one, I think the drum kits all sound like garbage. I hate that high-torque smack snare drum sound. Even when you try to tune it down, then it sounds lull flat like a snare drum you would buy at the Salvation Army, or the Goodwill. For having so many parameters and points of adjustment for tuning, there is very little flexibility. You’re stuck with what is basically the stock drum sound… you just get it in different pitches
The delay and the reverb, neither work at all. The flanger is okay, but there is no adjusting the timing, only the saturation. For creating beats and arranging them, it’s very difficult. This day and age, applications should be self-explanatory. This one is isn’t. Just when you think you have it figured you, you realize you screwed it all up
And the beats i cannot get them to save despite receiving the confirmation that it was saved. I go to open it, and nothing
Yeah, this application is highly overrated. I warned you all

Not yet complete
If you play Drum-Breaks with slices you expect that you can switch between kick and snare, so that the kick stops when the snare is triggered and vice versa. This function is called „cut itself“ in fruity loops and it‘s a standard since 2005 (free version). It’s even known from 80ies Atari/ C64-Sequencers. It is different from „retrigger sample“, which only works for one sample, not between all of them.
I am disappointed that an app which could be the most useful for live drumkits is stuck 20 years behind this basic playability, because if you like more realism, for example with modern breakbeat, you can‘t find anything in the app-store. „Cut itself“ would bring this app to a whole new level.
A) Should we really return to hardware sequencers, if we love sliced drumbreaks?
B) Or should we wait until apps that can do it already like samplist or koala are fully compatible with DAWs?
I would give it four stars if it would be updated in version 2, even though i would like to get a refund and wouldn’t update. But if it would be added also in this version, i would give it five stars and update to version 2.

Disappointed
Lovely app with loads of hidden features. Really wish Developers could fix the song mode as buttons for repeat patterns don’t work at the mo unless I am doing something wrong..
I wrote this review but no response and still the song mode does not function properly so can’t really use it be great to have this fixed thanks !

Response from developer
Thanks for the positive review. I wasn't aware of any issues with the empty patterns but I will take a look and get it sorted if I find a problem no worries.
