What's New in Drumline Break Creator

1.3

July 27, 2020

v1.3 - This one is a biggy (3rd update in 3 months)! Thank you to all who have downloaded and provided feedback! • NEW note subdivider: drag onto any note and it will divide it up to 1/32nd notes in the appropriate timing • NEW rest modifier: replaces a note within a rudiment with the appropriate rest • Playback speed/performance improvements – making some significant headway on this now. Check it out! • New rudiments added to the note tray: 2-16th notes, fivelets, sevenlets, ninelets • Backsticking notation added for snare • Crossover notation added for tenors • Now supports both left or right orientation • Bug fix to allow the creation of cheeses (flam with a double stroke) • Plus, other various improvements that you'll probably never notice and nor will my mom. Thanks for downloading and your support! LOTS of updates coming and excited to keep improving the app. Please tell and share it with your fellow drummers! v1.2 - May 29, 2020 • Refinements to the look and feel of saved compositions (i.e. better measure spacing, time signature to lead, etc) • Rim clicks support now both for snare and tenors • Decoupled rims from rimshots in tenors • Started the playback optimization (this will take many iterations to get fast and clean while still sounding realistic) • Crash fix when exiting the app and returning the app during playback • Crash fix with Facebook share for some users v1.1 - update May 8th, 2020 • Tenor notation has officially been moved from lines to spaces (it's a long story... let's move on) • Now change time signature from 4/4 to 3/4, 5/4, 3/8, 6/8, 9/8, 12/8 • Add your own measure markers from the add notes tray: this helps with the new time signatures • Removed automatic measure markers • Added lowercase stick notations "r" and "l" for those looking to clarify sticking for accents and taps • Improved ease of note selection in snare • Minor enhancements and bugs fixes

ADD BASS DRUMS

This app has high potential. It would be 5 stars but they don’t have bass drums. PLEASE ADD BASS DRUMS IT WILL BE SO FUN!!!

Waiting

Glad somebody is making a Drumline notation app but this is missing a lot. Asking for $6 and giving the bare minimum was disappointing. While tools are intuitive they are not as detailed as the high premium would make someone assume. I haven’t seen follow up updates to responses from years ago and want to make sure this project is alive.

Good but why not the full drumline

This app is very good and I’ve enjoyed making beats that I like, but when it comes to making a full drumline cadence, I’m forced to buy another app for the bass drums and I am confused as to why this app doesn’t have one. This app is enjoyable but I think y’all could or should maybe add a bass drum feature so that people like me can compose a full drumline cadence or feauture.

Needs basses

The app is good but I do wish that there were basses because there part of the drum line too

Great idea but horrible execution

So hard to use and keeps freezing/deleting my notes randomly. I’m so upset that I paid money for this awful app. Complete waste of time
