Nothing to adjust, just play along!

To be up-front, there is nothing in the description that says “this is a drum machine.” So don’t be disappointed to find out it’s just a predetermined set of about 50 tracks that cannot be altered whatsoever: this app is what it says it is! 🙂 I’m not sure if it’s a sampled or sequenced set of tracks, but they sound good, and they’re for practicing, or just listening to. No frills here! And it’s free.

Unlike in some reviews, there is now (in 2026) a slider bar to speed up and slow down the tempo, and the tracks are named, so those are two improvements right there. I would like to see what the tempos are, but instead the app can take the tempos as slow as .5 (1/2), or as fast as 2x, so one isn’t totally blind as to how fast you’re going.

Ad strip along the bottom (so far, the only ads that have appeared, and I appreciate that).

It’s free, and it’s a great app for what it is. Thank you so much for developing this!

UNNECESSARY Drum Rolls

Most of the loops. Especially the REGGAE are literally useless to play along, because of the Drum Rolls.
Practically impossible to pick any of your favorites song and play from start to finish with these Drum Beats.
- And please include AMA PIANO, AFRO, DANCEHALL, TECHNO and other new trends.

Finally background that grooves!

👍

Ok not many songs with these loops

Ok passable

A useful app

I’d definitely rate this app higher - maybe even 5 stars - if the developer could fix the most glaring issue that makes it currently unusable - the list of beats isn’t visible if you’re using the ‘dark’ theme for the display.

Otherwise - the beats are highly useful and I would spend more time using the app. Ok - I’d also like to see more irish-styled beats and some more jazz/latin beats… but I'll settle for just being able to read the list without having to switch between display modes all the time.

Unusable

Audio quality poor, recorded too hot, too compressed. Broken fidelity especially when you slow tempo. Beats have way too many fills to be good f any practical use composing music. Author should study how beats fit intros, verse, chorus, bridges etc. drums are rarely solo instruments they “ Back” other instruments and add flare in strategically as drum breaks not simple stuffed into every measure overcrowding the soundscape. “It’s the silence between notes that give the notes Dynamics. Dynamics is what gives the music human feelings. Without dynamics its a monotone voice that puts the ears asleep.

Solid

I love this app. Solid. Simple. Fun grooves to play over.

Loops are awesome

Thank you these really help

Too many similar beat patterns

There are 50 drum beat patterns, but too many funk 1,2,3,... funky 1,2,3.... 10 different samples under same category sound same!!

Would be better if ... [1] organize and downsize them to only 10-20 patterns. [2] add numerical value to speed instead of just a slider

Not even a basic rock or shuffle beat.

I am not sure where you get these beats from but not one useful beat out of the collection! How about a basic rock beat and swing/shuffle?

Awesome, but needs bpm marking

Such great sounds to practice to instead of a boring regular metronome. Simple easy interface too. I just wish it displayed the bpm in the corner so you’d know what speed you were at within the app.

Great!

Simple, easy, intuitive, free. We need more apps like this. No frills, it’s perfect

Meh

Weak interface. Tricky drums

It's usable

Great that it's free. Would be handy to know what time signature the beats are.

Great for all musicians!

I am a drummer and I dig the fact that I can pretty much play all these beats and slow them down to figure out if they need be great tool even for a seasoned player !

Groove

Reggae and Samba
It’s now up to you

A lockdown must.

Excellent app gets right to the point I am enjoying this app to the fullest. Stanley C Luke

Perfect for practicing while stuck at home all the time

This app has all the beats I could possibly want or need while staying home and practicing in solitary splendor during this endless pandemic. Many thanks to the developer for creating it. You have done something really good for the world, and it is very much appreciated.

The beat Drum Loops Ives sean

I have tested and kicked the tires on 18+ drum apps - the sound quality, dynamic range, user friedliness, and the variety of feels that are available, as an example, in swing - this drum loop app is 5 ⭐️ on all of those criteria. Amazing! You’ve got to try this one! 😎‼️
