## What is DrumDummy?

DrumDummy is the drummer who shows you how.

A 3D drummer sits at a translucent kit and plays patterns for you to shadow. Watch from the front, from the side, from above — or through the drummer's own eyes. Slow it down, loop it, mirror it, and play along until it sits.

WATCH
Every limb is animated: sticking, crossovers, hi-hat work, pedals. Left and right hands are color-coded, and a Mirror mode flips the view so you can shadow movement for movement.

LEARN
90 built-in patterns across rock, funk, blues, jazz, latin, reggae and electronic styles — plus all 40 PAS rudiments, shown as real drum notation with sticking and accents, ordered exactly like the official chart.

PRACTISE
Metronome with count-in and subdivisions, tap tempo from 20 to 200 bpm, tempo remembered per pattern. Loop any bars. Gap trainer drops the sound for a bar to test your inner clock; tempo trainer nudges the speed up as you loop.

FOR TEACHERS
DrumDummy doubles as a demonstration tool for lessons: show a pattern from the front, from the side, from above or through the player's own eyes — and mirror the view so your student can shadow the movement hand for hand. Slow it to talking speed, loop the tricky bar, let the count-in do the counting. Write an exercise in the editor and hand it to your student as a simple share link: it opens on their phone, no account, nothing to install.

CREATE
Build your own patterns in the step editor: any time signature, up to 32 bars, swing, flams, drags, ghost notes, rimclicks and more. Share any pattern as a link — no account needed, the pattern travels inside the link itself.

SOUND
A real sampled drum kit and a clean synthesized kit, with a per-drum mixer, pan and room reverb. Or build a kit from your own samples.

FREE AND PRO
DrumDummy is free to practise with: a starter set of patterns in every style, eight essential rudiments, the full 3D drummer, the sampled kit and the metronome. One single purchase unlocks everything for good — the full pattern library, all 40 rudiments, saving your own patterns, custom kits, MIDI/MusicXML import and export, and the practice trainers.
