## Most critical reviews (7 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Many bugs

*2022-10-29*

Many bugs, too ads… require month fees

### 1/5 — Awful

*2020-11-30*

Just terrible even for free....

### 1/5 — Bad

*2020-10-08*

The app plays some kind of broken beat and there is no setting that disables it. For example if you put hi-hat on every step of a 16 step pattern, it will not play it evenly. Instead it creates some kind of broken rhythm / stutter which cannot be disabled because there is no setting for it. This same stutter happens on every single instrument track.

It’s also not a sampler. There simply isn’t such functionality in the app to sample (record) sounds.

### 2/5 — Eh

*2020-05-24*

It’s fine, there’s nothing really wrong with it, it just needs more.

### 3/5 — Not bad

*2025-11-30*

Not bad for a drum machine that requires punching in the beat on a grid. There are pads which I assume are there to record what you tap into the grid. But the latency is so bad they are useless. I would give a better rating if they fixed that issue.

**Developer response:** Thanks for the review — glad it’s not bad overall. We’ve noted the pad latency issue and will look into improving it as soon as possible. Hi, we've released a new version, please try it again

### 3/5 — Orientation needs work

*2021-12-31*

2021 iPad. Turn horizontal with power to right side.  App loads upside down.  Strange.  App seems to work well other than that.

**Developer response:** Thank you for the feedback. Due to the unique screen shape of some devices, we've made some compromises to prevent distortion. We are exploring alternative solutions to improve the orientation experience and appreciate your patience.

### 5/5 — nice tool

*2020-05-05*

it's quite nice tool for people who wants  to customize own beats.
