I LOVE THIS APP IT IS THE BEST BEST BEST BEST BEST BEST BEST BEST BEST BEST BEST BEST BEST APP EVER CREATED
Very clean, very impressive
It is very easy to use, has tons of great sounds and tools, and makes creating beats feel fun and effortless. Whether you already make music or are new to the scene, there’s plenty to work with in this app. Definitely recommend trying it out!
Killer app for structuring practice
DrumShed is such a cool app for drummers and also useful for musicians on any instrument who are looking to improve their timing, groove, and phrasing.
As someone who’s first instrument is not the drums this app is like having a personal drum coach in my pocket. I can ask the beat maker to come up with a pattern in any style whether that’s a funky Meters New Orleans vibe or a progressive metal beat and it does a great job of showing me where to place each hit in time. I can then break down more complicated patterns into simplified chunks and work my way up.
I also LOVE the internal clock and feel transitions capabilities. Those are awesome not just on drums but I also use them as a bass and guitar player!
As a multi-instrumentalist who has tried nearly every metronome/groove based app out there, I have to say there is truly innovative stuff going on with DrumShed!

I Don’t Even Own a Kit and I Love This Thing
Full disclosure: I have no drums. I have a phone, a pair of sticks I bought on a whim for my toddler, and a coffee table that has seen things. I downloaded DrumShed out of curiosity and now I'm doing math about whether a kit fits in my basement, and wondering how long it might take to get good enough to show up at a Guitar Center just to blow someone’s socks off.
That's the real review, honestly. The app is so well made that it made me want the hobby — and I’m a software dev. The UI is gorgeous and calm — dark, uncluttered, and the builders walk you through it like a patient teacher instead of dumping forty knobs in your face. The sounds are clean enough that I just want to leave it playing. And "Learn This" hands a total beginner an actual day-by-day plan, which is exactly the thing I didn't know I was missing. I also deeply want to build a beat so sick and advanced that it gets to the top of the “Popular” tab on the community page.
It genuinely feels like you could get good at home with this, no lessons, no excuses.
Five stars from a man with no drums.
