Love that the dev responds to feedback!
OLD REVIEW: I loved this app for years but a recent update seems to have increased latency to the point it’s no longer playable or usable. If the dev is reading this — I’d pay money for this app if it were fixed!
Response from developer
Hello Nate~ Thank you for being with Drum Pad 8 for so many years, and thank you for taking the time to share this feedback. You were right that the recent update increased latency for some longtime users. In version 1.2, we added a new Legacy mode to bring back the lower-latency local playback experience. If you’re willing to give it another try, please update to 1.2 and switch to Legacy mode from the music options menu. We’d really appreciate it, and thank you again for helping us improve the app.
Broken
Latest version latency killed the app

Very Coolest App Of The Year!
Response from developer
Thank you for the enthusiastic support! We're delighted you enjoy the Rock, Pop and Jazz sounds, especially the softer Jazz kit. We hope all three kits keep inspiring your rhythms. Happy drumming!
Where’s the help page or instructions?
Response from developer
Sorry the instructions were hard to find. We've added help and a guided tour that you can open at any time. After updating to 1.4, tap the Options gear and scroll down to Help & Sound for playing tips, sound troubleshooting and the option to replay the guided tour. To start playing, simply tap the pads; no song needs to be loaded. Thank you for pointing this out.
