Drums 1.2.0 — What's New
Practice sessions
Tap Play All to run your whole practice list in one go. Choose how you move between grooves — a set number of repeats, or a set number of minutes each — with an optional count-in before every one. You can also skip anything already marked as practised.

Speed trainer
Pick a target tempo and the app raises the speed as you play, a few BPM at a time, until you get there.

New view: Note Highway
A third way to see a groove, alongside the grid and notation. Notes travel toward you down a lane for each drum, so you can read what's coming instead of chasing a playhead across a row.

Tempo where you need it
The tempo control now lives on the transport bar instead of behind the settings gear, with a loop toggle beside it. Each groove also remembers the tempo you've been practising it at, so it's there when you come back.

Two new grooves
6/8 Rock Ballad and Jazz Ride — bringing jazz back to the library.

Better notation

6/8 and 12/8 grooves now beam and count in the right groupings
Eighth notes are no longer engraved as sixteenths — this affected every groove in the library
Rests now appear where an instrument drops out, so fills read properly
Also in this release

The screen stays awake while a groove is playing
Your practice list shows when you last played each groove
Full VoiceOver support, and larger mute/solo buttons
Fixed: deleting several grooves at once could remove the wrong ones
Fixed: changing tempo mid-groove could cause a brief stumble
Assorted playback fixes around interruptions, count-in and looping
