Igog has this feature called "velAUcity TRACKING" but it only works with touching the pads in the screen. When i plug a trigger through a Rocksmith cable, with an usb to lightining adaptor and in the MIC TRIGGER MODE, works perfectly, but is very dynamic! It would be amazing if i could control how much dynamic I want it to be, just like in drumagog's "dynamic tracking" I was wondering if that implement in the app could be a possibility for a future update. App integration would be something cool too. I have here in my Iphone 5c this app called BIAS FX, and it has a rack compressor that would be perfect to go before going to igog app. But in this case i will probably have to contact "positive grid" (the company that made BIAS FX) to let me integrate with Igog, just like it lets me do with the app "Fiddlicator" for example. I dont know for sure how this feature works, maybe there's something that can be done to let BIAS FX integrate with igog. I'm very hopefull to suggest these things, it would be more than perfect if it happens. ### 3/5 — THE best iOS drum sounds, but the dev has abandoned support for it it seems *2015-06-29, version 1.32* I hope they continue to support this because it really is unrivaled. No delay what so ever. Hard to tell the difference between this and real drums when played correctly. Very cool stuff ad worth every cent. They need to fix a few issues though such as not being able to restore purchased kits when reinstalling iGOG. If they could do this it would be a FIVE STAR APP. ### 4/5 — Almost perfect... *2013-09-03, version 1.30* The drum samples/sounds are superior. What would make this the perfect app (for my personal use) would be Audiobus compatibility. ### 2/5 — Awesome *2011-06-15, version 1.30* Sounds amazing. Desperately needs Copy and Paste. This also needs the ability to undo the last recorded part without erasing the entire sequence. Without these two crucial features this us a toy. ### 4/5 — great app........but *2010-12-08, version 1.30* The mp3 backing track won't work. Other than that, this thing rocks. Great drum sounds. Great response. Fix the backing tracks and it's 5 stars. ### 4/5 — it's like real *2010-12-03, version 1.30* it's like real. but it's hard to make supposed volume. so I'm learning.. ;( ### 3/5 — Amazing app - needs bug fix *2010-08-10, version 0* An amazing drum app. The velocity scaling and mic trigger features make this App without peer. However, running an iPhone 4 under iOS4, I cannot save my own kits. They do not appear in the kit list after saving, and thus cannot be re-loaded. Also, poor online support - very little info on the developer's website and no e-mail response to my inquiries. I would have given this App 5 stars if they had fixed the bugs and showed better support for their products. ### 4/5 — good app but load your own samples *2010-07-28, version 0* I like this app but when I loaded some kik snare and cymbal wavs from my synths it really sounded incredible load your own high quality samples ### 4/5 — Awesome, just a few feature requests... *2010-04-23, version 0* Already my favorite drum app, but I'd love it even more if WaveMachine Labs would add the following: - Both high and low tom samples to their own Rock Kits (currently they only supply a high tom sample unlike most of the other kits from their in-app store). - Drum roll, rim shot & sidestick samples, along with a way in the pad interface to allow these to be triggered during a performance - Adjustable Reverb/Ambience effect (like the reverb in ThumbJam) - A way to disable the record/play buttons (I keep hitting them be accident while playing) - More diverse kits in App-Store, like jazz/brush kits, Latin & African percussion, popular & classic kits, etc. Looking forward to the next update! ### 4/5 — Great Potential *2010-03-03, version 0* This application is extremely unstable. Was great only the moment I first used it. Ever since, it is just crap. ### 5/5 — Works on iPod touch 2g *2009-12-22, version 0* Great app! I wasn't sure if it would work on my iPod touch 2g after I read some of the reviews but I downloaded it and it worked fine. So if you have an iPod touch 2g, it should work! ### 4/5 — Best drum sounds *2009-12-15, version 0* App gets four stars for its ultra-quality sounds and some innovative ideas. Still a little buggy, but the developer seems to be on it. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Does not work *2022-11-06, version 1.33* I understand this app is over 10 years old. But the description says it works with this iPhone. It doesn’t. No sound and only one drum kit. It used to come with several kits. Please update it. ### 1/5 — Don't waste your time or money *2017-01-31, version 1.33* Not responsive. Not useful . Can't get rid of click on playback. Can't fix recorded tracks. Just a waste of space on my iPhone. Tried getting my money back and they said no. So, will share my thoughts so you won't get tricked like I did. ### 1/5 — No restore purchases *2014-10-25, version 1.32* Sounds great and all, but I really hate that there's no "restore purchases" function. I've already bought too many of the .99 kits, but every time I redownload the app I have to guess which ones. And I don't need more kits yet I inevitably guess wrong and end up purchasing more. Worse, I guess I just bought "Drive Drums 1" cause I guessed wrong, and the kit is broken - the bass drum and hi hat make no sound. ### 1/5 — Could be better..... *2012-09-09, version 1.30* Ok, first....awesome sound...it doesn't get much better than this. Now for the reason I only rated 1 star. I need more pads to do anything remotely professional with this...16 would be perfect. I also feel that without a dedicated sequencer (even something like the one in GarageBand would suffice) and audio copy/paste...it's pretty much useless....but my Steven Slate drumagog files DO sound great on it....just FIX it so I can actually USE it! ### 1/5 — They don't respond. *2012-06-16, version 1.30* They seem to have gone m.i.a.? They no longer respond on their forum either last time I checked. Many folks requested copy/paste, (including me), but no updates in ages. And now,...the best sounding ios drum app disappears after sandboxing? Not sure what happened. Maybe auria is taking all their time? ### 1/5 — Missing Audio Copy/Paste *2012-02-24, version 1.30* Sound realism is unrivaled on iPad, but without audio copy/paste this otherwise incredible app is reduced to a toy. Having to export recordings to an ftp server via a computer defeats the entire purpose of musicians using the iPad. Once audio copy/paste is added, it will be well deserving of a 5 star rating. ### 1/5 — Crashes, No Copy/Paste *2012-02-23, version 1.30* It freezes constantly on my ipad 2. There is no audio copy/paste for transfer to other iPad apps. No updated version for iPad. Just awful implementation. If this app is an indication of the level of support WaveMachine Labs provides their customers, I won't be purchasing the upcoming Auria app. ### 1/5 — Great app but needs copy:paste *2010-10-19, version 0* If you can't implement the instrument on the phone itself it's useless to me. I want to use it on an iPhone D.A.W. without exporting to a desktop. PLEASE THIS IS THE BEST SOUNDING DRUM MACHINE IN THE STORE. COPY/PASTE!!!!!!!!!! ### 1/5 — Does not work as shown. Base pad doesn't work! *2009-11-24, version 0* I rarely write reviews, but I want to because I am having a problem with this app. I have corresponded with the author about this issue, followed his instructions, and it still does not work. The problem is the "BD" key - the one in the lower left. I think it's supposed to be a base pad, but it barely makes a noise. I've tried changing all the settings, according to the author, but it still does not work! I think it's a bug, and until it's fixed, this app gets 1 star. P.S. Don't expect this app to sound very much like the demo! ### 1/5 — fix it *2009-11-09, version 0* Was neat when it worked the first time. Now it crashes everytime I try to start it up again. Even after re-booting the iphone. Fix it please. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Mic triggermode *2019-02-15, version 1.33* To all the drummers that use mictrigger mode that is because is using your own voice if you speak loud then the velocity becomes hitting the drum harder if you don’t speak anything it will be softer ### 5/5 — IGOG is awesome! *2018-08-08, version 1.33* I’ve been using IGOG for years now and I love it! The samples sound great! I use it for rehearsals with a rock-n-roll brass band I’m in. I plug my iPhone into the sound system complete with subs and monitors, and it sounds excellent! It sure beats dragging my entire drum kit down there every time. I also use it at an open mic I help host, and jam in real-time with musicians that come up to play. They love it, although they’re always looking around for where the drums are setup. I am still waiting for an update for the newer, larger screen iPhones, (it’s been over a year since the last update) but other than that, this app ROCKS!!! ### 5/5 — Great *2015-06-02, version 1.32* Great idea! The Velocity feature provides much more flexible and allows way more creativity than loops or programmable drum machines. It is a pain to export because you have to use iTunes. I hope they continue to develop this app, for example it needs Audiobus support ### 5/5 — Best Drum App Of All Time *2011-09-04, version 1.30* UPDATE! Well I downloaded some GOG samples off Google, and my gosh. This app gets even better. If you have DrumaGOG then you can like make your own samples off your drums. They just need more layouts, more kits and stuff to buy, and load times faster. It takes me like at least 20 seconds to load up my sample library. I got like 150 at least more samples. ---- I have bought every drum app that's worth getting (about 20) and this is the best and my favorite. Great sounds and velocity, good recording system, easy to transfer to my computer. Needs more sounds though. Even though it has alot. BUY! ### 5/5 — very good buy it now,understand it later! *2010-10-19, version 0* i have never read so many stupid reviews this is the best .any one wanting more is out of touch i would like to see them make an app this good . most of these comments were made im sure before they understood how this app works .so save your reviews until you know what your talking about! ### 5/5 — Best drums *2010-10-18, version 0* Still the best drums in the app store. Fast, clean, dynamic. Works and responds great with iPod touch 4th gen. But let me complain about the icon for craps sake.. lol.. Reviewer below Complains about icon artistry.. Give me a break. ### 5/5 — Should be updated for retina display already... Geez! *2010-10-13, version 0* Should be updated for retina display already... Geez! At least fix the icon... it's the worst looking thing on my whole music apps page. A fuzzy pink miniature kids snare drum with the name of the app written across it when the name of the app is already 8mm below it? Really? A 10 year old kid could come up with a better one! (forgive me if your 10 year old kid actually did make it for you). ### 5/5 — Triggering fixed...and made way better!! *2010-05-22, version 0* Allright igog. I thank u. It took u a while to fix triggering but holy cow??!! This new 2 zone triggering u gave it?? Amazing! This is why u guys have been my favorite drum app and THE ONLY ONE WORTH DOWNLOADING FOR DRUMMERS! It's on such another level, it's the Disney world while the other apps are the playpen at mcdonalds. Thank u guys for fixing it and making it way better ### 5/5 — Awesome....best drum app out *2010-04-07, version 0* This is by far the best drum app so far, I have a small recording studio and plugging my phone from my headphone Jack into my interface unit and playing a slow beat and then bumping the bpm up to what I want sounds amazing, just wish there was preset drum rolls, other than that it is an amazing app and well worth $3 ### 5/5 — IGOG *2009-12-30, version 0* Being able to load your own samples makes this app by far the very nest! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
