So Good

YA!)

Gorgeous Fun Percussion

A beautiful app. An iPad music classic.
Still one of the best percussion apps in the app store.
Heaps of fun. Heaps of options.

Amazing - Best App Evaaaa!!!

I really love Drum Jam - it has excellent sounds and not only perfect in the mix with loops but the live pad is top notch too. It’s quite inspiring actually…

This is my fault for not checking before buying but it’s 2025…

Disappointed about the lack of auv3, assumed since your other apps have it this one would. I could really use this for my music there are great sounds/possibilities but as of right now it’s useless for my workflow

Amazingly creative and useful

I’m biased. I have enjoyed Pete Lockett’s lessons and music for quite some time! I like putting it on random mode and groove out for hours at a time… great to play along, learn konnokol a little snippet at time (Konnokol is an wonderful way of singing complex rhythmic patterns and phrases, developed in India from classical Hindustani and Carnatic styles)
The sheer volume (ba da bing) of exotic rhythms and rare instrument samples that can be triggered via MIDI/Bluetooth/touchpad is absolutely insane. Every musician should have this. 6 stars because the app has survived the jump from a ton of devices, still performs like a tank, ableton link, whatever you are doing… brilliant!1
