### 1/5 — 👎

*2024-12-11, version 2.6*

The app is flakey. No sound. Archaic interface. I deleted it.

### 4/5 — This is great!

*2024-06-14, version 2.6*

Too excited to sample from these. My only complaint is that, I wish there was new updates. Also some sort of loop sequencer would be cool to test out how well audio clips fit together.

### 1/5 — I bought this already.

*2024-03-05, version 2.6*

I bought this 2 years ago and thought the loops were great but now it has vanished from my purchased list and they want me to buy it again. Re listing is becoming all too common with Apple , I don’t like it and will not support it.

### 4/5 — Superb

*2021-07-27, version 2.6*

Everyone has to know their limitations in composing. Mine is creating that subtly in my rhythm tracks. Oh yes, I can work on a good drum sequence but now as I get older and more experienced this is just the app I need to really give my tracks the rhythmic skills they need. To me drumming is the black art I’ll never reach, when all my other skills are now OK. Seriously I’ve just spent 20 mins with this app and just added one vocal track in Cubasis and it reminds me of my old studio days with a bloody good drummer on hand.

### 5/5 — please add portrait mode, background audio

*2021-04-20*

PLEASE ADD portrait mode, background audio (multitask)

**Developer response:** Thanks for you feedback. We will put this on the ‘wish list’ Cheers, Meg for Go Independent Records

### 5/5 — Great sound,great drummer

*2020-01-16, version 2.5*

This sounds so much better than ‘fake’ drum samples. This drummer is awesome! An upgrade for my songs in garageband! And it follows your song’s BPM, which makes all loops usefull. Big thumbs up!!

### 4/5 — Almost 5 Stars

*2018-07-29, version 2.4*

All that fantastic sampling is let down by 1. Not being able to set an exact bpm. 2. Not being able to link a few fills to make up a song. Regarding 1. I do understand that if any of the samples were speeded up or slowed down the pitch would change. This would be acceptable and wouldn’t be that noticeable. I’m sure most musicians would understand. Regarding 2., I know the samples can be exported into GB etc, then worked on to form a song, but that takes a lot of faffing around. This app could have the ability to be a convenient, hassle free, superb sounding drum machine, ideal for rehearsing and song writing. Come on guys,  give it a go and make this app a winner!

### 5/5 — Sounds amazing

*2018-06-19*

These worked terrific for me. I had recorded several songs in garage band. The GB loops just sounded bland. These gave the songs a great “real” feeling. Are there better drum loops that are more realistic? I can’t think of any in an easy to use app for ten bucks.

### 3/5 — Unexpectedly Few useful loops for “1000”

*2017-12-26*

Good sounds, but precious few useful ones.

### 5/5 — Top app

*2017-11-04, version 2.3*

I use it with GarageBand and it works really great. I use it for church and private rehearsals.
