## What is Drumr?

Drumr — Learn Faster. Drum Better.

Real notation. Real drum sounds. Real progress.

Start practicing right away. Sign in with Apple to back up and sync across devices.

PDFs don't loop, and slowing down a video distorts playback. Drumr keeps the audio clear. Professionally authored Scores become interactive practice tools — follow along note-for-note, slow the tempo, loop the hard parts, and expand your rhythmic vocabulary. Drum kit, e-drums, practice pad, or marching percussion.

See It. Hear It. Play It.
- SnapCursor — every note highlighted as it plays
- KitView — full kit lights up with each hit
- PadView — animated drumsticks showing sticking for rudiment Scores
- BasslineView — animated drums for marching basslines
- PieView — timed slices help you see each measure's subdivisions

AI Coach

Practice readouts, tempo guidance, and recommendations for what Score to practice next based on your recent sessions. Tap any recommended Score to jump right in. Private, fast, and in your device language. Requires Apple Intelligence.

Hey Siri

Hands-free Library search and playback. "Hey Siri, find paradiddles in Drumr." Once a Score is open, just say "Hey Siri, play."

Performance Analysis (practice pads & e-drums)

Instant feedback every session — performance score with early, late, and missed notes. E-drums include per-instrument accuracy and require USB/MIDI. Practice-pad mic mode requires AirPods or Apple wired headphones.

Watch. Practice. Play Along.

Many Scores include three modes — watch a pro, practice the part, and play along to drumless tracks.

Practice Recording

Record videos of your sessions. Enable in Settings > Recording.

Charts

Improve your improvisational playing with Scores that feature standard chart notation and drumless full band tracks.

Awards

Earn Awards for milestones like first beat, perfect sessions, tempo mastery, and consistent practice.

Built for Every Drummer

Drum Kit
- Rock, funk, jazz, Latin, metal, and Motown grooves and fills — syncopation, linear patterns, polyrhythms, and control drills.
- Instrument Layers — isolate kick, snare, toms, and cymbals to lock in difficult parts.

Marching Percussion
Warmups, grids, and exercises for snare, tenors, and bassline. Includes all 40 PAS rudiments, dozens of hybrid rudiments, and authentic drumline Scores.

Built-In Playlists

Curated playlists provide guided learning paths for essential grooves, fills, technique builders, and rudiments.

World-Class Content

Courses and Scores by professional drummer and educator Geoff Fry, Hudson Music, Mel Bay Publications, Pat Petrillo, Scott Johnson, and many more. New content added regularly.

Imports

Create custom Drumr files with notation, audio, and practice tools. Compose in Drumr Notate, free on the App Store for iPad, or export MusicXML/MIDI from Sibelius and create files at drumr.app/imports.

Get Help

Three ways to learn: How To videos on Home, triple-tap the Drumr logo for "What's This?" tips, or ask Coach.

Practice Features
- Tempo controls (30–300 bpm) with 3 modes to help you improve speed and stick control: Linear, Increasing, and Up-Down.
- Measure looping and single-measure mode to let you lock in on tricky parts.
- Progress analytics + activity rings
- Up Next recommendations
- ShufflePlay — randomize groove and grid measures
- Mute Drum Sounds — keep time with the metronome while silencing drums
- Multiple metronomes (Beeps, Woodblocks, Kick & Snare for drumline)
- Works offline (videos and playalongs require internet)

Musical fluency comes from vocabulary. Every groove, fill, rudiment, and style you learn becomes another idea you can draw from when it's time to play. Drumr helps you build that vocabulary, Score by Score, rep by rep.

### 4/5 — Really good app, but constantly needing to update is annoying

*2026-06-28, version 26.6.26*

I love this app, it has helped my playing so much just by playing the songs over and over again. I just hate to open the app and needed to update it after literally using it just fine the day before. It would be a 5 star but for the minor inconvenience every time I want to drum, it gets annoying fast.

### 5/5 — The Best App for Rudimental Drumming

*2026-06-14, version 26.6.13*

This is the only app of the kind for rudimental drumming. Super useful both to generally find pieces to play and to feel a sense of progression in your playing. There are so many fantastic exercises on here, you’d be really hard pressed to play them all before they add more. I wish there were more scores available in the free version, I think there was when I first got the app a bit over a year ago, but the subscription is worth it and mostly what I use.

### 5/5 — Make videos of them please Jeff

*2026-06-06, version 26.6.6*

We have put together this audition packet to try and make the audition process as simple and straight forward as possible. As long as you go through the entire packet and let the information digest a bit, you should have a very clear idea of what you need to do to prepare for your Blue Devils Battery audition.

Help ME please I’d greatly appreciate it if you could make some time to record these selections of my audition for A corps.


group. Start from the wrist and allow that motion to move all other corresponding muscle groups. If we are not stabilizing our body, then other parts of our body will react from the initial wrist rotation and strike.
1. Two main filters we use: sound to guide technique, and technique to guide sound
1. A little bit of everything involved.
I. Mixer board explanation. (Slower frequency = bigger
motions, faster frequency = small motions)

Visual: Perform all movements from both of the visual videos. Box drill 8x8x8x8 with drum, if possible. 8-forward, 8-right crab,
8-backwards, 8-left crab. (Box drill music attached.)
Note: bass drum auditions will come with mp3's of the exercises for the drum you are auditioning on removed. Please use a pad, or drum to play along with the mp3 playback for us to evaluate you. Bass drums, perfor exercises I-2-3 with splits with mp3. Play 4 & 5 snare part. Learn the three etudes.

### 2/5 — Wow

*2026-06-03, version 26.6.1*

Good but everything is literally on the premium version

### 5/5 — Very good app!

*2026-04-22, version 26.4.21*

I have been using this app for a bit over a month now and it has been amazing! The features are very convenient and easy to use, and there are a lot of scores on the app to play along to. I highly recommend this app to anyone at any skill level of drumming!!

### 5/5 — Great practice tool

*2026-04-22, version 26.4.16*

My only ‘critique’ with this app so far is that it didn’t exist when I was first starting drums.  It’s a great tool if you want to expand your rep or break down your grooves and licks nice and slow.

### 5/5 — Amazing!

*2026-04-21, version 26.4.16*

What an app, weather your a beginner all the way to professional it’s has something for everyone! It’s easy to use, motivates you but pushes you to your next potential! Download it and get playing!!!!!

### 5/5 — Inspires Me To Learn

*2026-04-21, version 26.4.16*

Whenever I open this app, I am genuinely inspired to become better at drums! Whether it be a new groove or set of fills I’ve always wanted to learn, or a snare lick, this app has already made me a better drummer in the short time I’ve had it.

### 5/5 — 1 Star

*2026-04-10, version 26.4.9*

I rated this 5 star so everyone sees it!! This app actually sucks!! You have to subscribe to premium in order to do anything!! I couldn’t even do a simple beat on the drums or even a warmup on snare without it saying I have to subscribe to premium!!! The creators of this should honestly delete this!! Every good star in here is from bots and themselves!! You make it look so good in instagram but it actually sucks!!

### 3/5 — Good

*2026-04-06, version 26.4.5*

The app performs well, good features and all. However, when this app released there were lots of free scores and stuff but now almost everything is paid. I understand some of the branded exercises but like some stuff like stick control is paid. That combined with no subscription sharing for my family makes it hard to want to use often. My dad pays for this subscription and wants to share it with me but the app has it disabled.
