Drumline
Response from developer
Hi P money, thanks for the review! 🥁 We're glad you enjoyed the app. Our sheet music library is actually built and expanded by our amazing community of drummers. Since we don't officially release new licensed songs ourselves, we'd love to invite you to use our notation tools to transcribe and create sheets for "Eye of the Tiger" and "Seven Nation Army" yourself! It's a great way to practice writing and reading drum music. If you need any help getting started with the notation tools, or want to share what else would make this a 5-star experience for you, please hit us up at support@upbeat.studio. Keep the beat! 🚀
Clean and free
Response from developer
Thanks for the love! 🥁 It’s great to hear that Drum Notes is hitting the mark for you. We strive to provide a clean, reliable experience for drummers to read and play notation without the "scammy" feel of other apps. We’re glad you’re finding the tool useful! If you ever have feature requests for our playback engine or notation tools, don't hesitate to drop us a line at support@upbeat.studio. Keep the beat! 🚀
Question
Response from developer
Hi Coole Moe D! Thanks a ton for the 5 stars! 🥁 Regarding the "whole note bass drum roll"—we want to ensure we help you write exactly what you need, but we aren't 100% sure which specific notation style you are looking for. Could you shoot us a quick email at support@upbeat.studio with a few more details? We’d love to help you figure this out! Keep the beat! 🚀
The app I always wanted
Great app for finding new stuff and writing out exercises you come up with yourself.
Response from developer
Thanks for the love! 🥁 It’s awesome to hear that Drum Notes is filling that gap for you—especially for writing out those triplets and 16ths effectively. We noticed the 4-star rating and would love to know what would push this to a perfect 5 stars for you. Is there a specific feature or tool you are missing? Please let us know at support@upbeat.studio so we can keep improving. Keep the beat! 🚀
Muito bom.

Bon ap mais prix trop élevé
Gros problème pour moi l’abonnement….
Un achat unique serait bien mieux à mon avis.
Response from developer
Merci pour votre avis et vos suggestions détaillées. L'idée d'un export MIDI pour continuer le travail sur une DAW est excellente, et nous la prenons sérieusement en considération pour nos prochaines mises à jour. Nous entendons également votre retour concernant le modèle d'abonnement. Pourriez-vous nous écrire à support@upbeat.studio ? Nous serions ravis d'en discuter davantage avec vous et de mieux comprendre vos besoins. Votre avis est précieux pour nous aider à améliorer l'application !
Sound quality and features
Response from developer
Hey Isaiah, thanks a lot for your feedback! We’d love to hear more about what you mean by improving the marching percussion sound — are there specific instruments or aspects of the sound that you think could be better? That would help us a lot! And about the editing part, could you send us a quick message at support@upbeat.studio to explain what exactly feels tricky or unclear for you? We want to make it easier and more intuitive, and your input is super valuable. Thanks again for using Drum Notes! 🥁🔥
Why do you do this?
Response from developer
Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts. We understand your frustration and we hear you. Building and maintaining an app like Drum Notes is a huge challenge — from audio rendering, playback precision, to stability across many devices and updates. It’s not just a hobby project but a product that requires ongoing development, testing, and support. That’s why certain features are part of a paid plan: just like any product you’d pick up in a supermarket, there’s a cost to create and deliver it. The free version is meant to let you try the core experience, but the full functionality (like adding more instruments) is part of the complete product we sell. We truly value your feedback, and if you’d like to share more about which features matter most to you, please reach out at support@upbeat.studio . Your input helps us make Drum Notes better. 🙏🥁

confusing save features
Não compartilha no iPad
Response from developer
Valeu demais pelo seu comentário e por relatar isso pra gente, Fabio! Poxa, sentimos muito pelos travamentos e pela experiência frustrante no iPad e iPhone — ainda mais sendo usuário pró. Isso definitivamente não é o que a gente quer! Vamos investigar esses problemas com a parte de compartilhamento e com a ferramenta beta de escrita de partituras. Se puder, manda pra gente no support@upbeat.studio o modelo do seu dispositivo e a versão do iOS? Isso ajuda bastante a encontrar o que tá acontecendo. Obrigado por avisar e por usar o Drum Notes — vamos fazer o possível pra resolver isso logo! 🙏🥁

App crashes constantly.

Response from developer
Es tut uns leid, dass du solche Probleme mit Drum Notes hast! 😞 Das sollte nicht passieren. Bitte kontaktiere uns unter support@upbeat.studio mit Details zu deinem Gerät und System, damit wir das Problem untersuchen können. Wir möchten das Erlebnis verbessern und hoffen, dass wir eine Lösung finden! 🎶🙏
Perfektes Werkzeug, aber unfair überteuert
Ansonsten ist das ein verdammt gutes Werkzeug, um mehrstimmige Polyrhythmen zu notieren und zu hören, was man da geschrieben hat. Aber aus meiner Sicht unfair überteuert.
Response from developer
Hallo, danke für dein ehrliches Feedback! 😊 Wir freuen uns, dass du die App als wertvolles Werkzeug für das Schreiben und Anhören von Polyrhythmen siehst. Im letzten Jahr haben wir große Verbesserungen vorgenommen: Wir haben die Klangqualität und Präzision optimiert, neue Instrumente hinzugefügt und die Bibliotheks- und Gruppenfunktionen weiterentwickelt – jetzt als Hubs bekannt. Und es kommt noch vieles mehr! Wir verstehen, dass der Preis ein Thema ist, aber das Abo deckt kaum die Kosten für die Wartung und Weiterentwicklung einer so komplexen App. Unser Ziel ist es, die App stetig zu verbessern und gleichzeitig ihre Qualität hochzuhalten. Wenn du konkrete Wünsche oder Ideen hast, schreib uns gerne an support@upbeat.studio – dein Feedback hilft uns, die App weiterzuentwickeln. Vielen Dank für deine Unterstützung! 🎵✨
É bom, mas…
Response from developer
Olá, Lázaro! acabamos de lançar uma atualização do app corrigindo esse problema! Por favor, atualiza e me diga se encontrar qualquer problema, ok? Nosso contato é support@ubeat.studio.
Great...but
Response from developer
Thank you for your feedback! I'm glad you find the app overall fine. 😊 Regarding the BPM configuration, there is actually a way to change it! You can use the button located right above the play button to adjust the BPM to your preference. 🎵 As for exporting the sheet to an image, you're right that this is currently a premium feature. We understand how useful it would be for everyone, and we’ll keep your suggestion in mind as we continue improving the app. If you have any other ideas or questions, feel free to reach out to us at support@upbeat.studio. We’d love to hear from you! 😊
Too many glitches
Then, when they do finally show, I am unable to listen to them when pushing play.
Difficult to support app when it is functioning like this.
Correct the issues and I’ll edit my review
Response from developer
Hi Jeremy, just wanted to let you know that we have released a new version fixing the bug you mentioned. I hope you can use the app again and enjoy it this time =) If anything, let us know here: support@upbeat.studio Best grooves!
It’s good
Great App But…
PLEASE fix the bug with the accents, the accents literally don’t work, they work at first but once you save and exit the score and then return, the accents are gone and it’s so annoying. Also please make it easier to make accented beats, it’s mad annoying having to click them individually.
Also just personal preference, but I don’t like the sound of the new Tom drum, the old one sounded clearer, but that’s just a bit pick. Tysm! I love this app just please fix the accents! (I had written a review alr but I don’t think it saved so yeah)
Response from developer
Hi tomadois_god! Thank you so much for your thoughtful review and for loving the app! It’s awesome to hear you see the potential in it, and I really appreciate the detailed feedback—it helps us improve. Regarding the bug with the accents, I completely understand how frustrating that must be. We’re already looking into this issue and will prioritize fixing it in an upcoming update. Making it easier to create accented beats is also a great suggestion—I’ll share this with the team as we work on enhancing the experience. As for the new Tom drum sound, I hear you! Your preference matters, and we’ll keep it in mind as we continue tweaking and improving the app. If you have any other feedback or find more bugs, feel free to reach out to us at support@upbeat.studio. Your input means a lot, and we want to make sure the app is as amazing as you imagine. Thanks again! 😊🎵
