I can't hear the metronome

I’m happy playing drums with this APP. But I can’t hear the metronome in the play mode. The music is too loud. And the volume setting only affects the sheet mode. I hope you can fix this problem.

A little too hard

It isn’t accurate I got 0 right and it said I got 83%

譜面bug

近期更新的歌很多譜的呈現都有問題,請改善

Premium is not available

Really good app where my 8 year old is loving her electric drums. BUT membership / premium upgrade not possible as it fails to load up the upgrade element of app.

Meaning my daughter is only playing ‘hit me baby one more time’ - quite annoying.

Have left feedback 1 week ago and still waiting to hear back.

初学

👍

Every song is incomplete

I don’t understand why you charge so much to have each song cutoff

喜欢

自从学鼓后,一直在用这个软件练习,但有个问题一直没解决,链接了电鼓,只显示踩镲,吊擦和强音擦,没有叮叮擦显示,软件显示只有3个擦片,需要开发人员解决一下叮叮擦的问题啊,另外很多耳熟能详的中文歌曲太少,比如战马,西游记、春节序曲这些老歌能补一下吗? 感谢🙏

Songs

Songs are added every 15 days. I already asked for about 10 songs (all classic rock or pop from 90s) and got not even one in 3 months. I paid the yearly subscription and I don't think after a year I will continue, since more than 80% of the songs are unknown. On top of that, some songs have very motonous scores or even half of the song is drumless (like recently one added "hello" from Adele).
Besides that the app itself has a great product idea: score with different difficulty levels and e-drums connection to verify correct playing and real comercial songs. If they fix the songs thing (add more and faster) I wil stay.

I love this game so much

This app helps you become a better drummer. This is why I gave it a five star review. I used to be very bad at drumming, but then I got A in it.

It’s good but…

… could do with some polish.

I like that it teaches you musical notation, and my Daughter loves to use the app but there are some pretty basic annoyances.

Our setup: Alesis Nitro Ultimate edrum kit, usb connected to the iPad Air. Which is Bluetooth audio connected to the drums. Meaning that the audio from the iPad and tablet is mixed together and heard through headphones plugged into the Alesis “brain”.

Firstly every time the app is started it turns the tablet volume to maximum! Makes my ears bleed!

Then, because we want to use the edrums for sound we turn the volume of the apps virtual drums off. This is fine but during the part of the lesson where the app says “listen”, you hear nothing.

Latency: there’s an onboard “latency tuner”, essential for Bluetooth audio, and it works… mostly… sometimes the initial parts of the lesson seem to be out of sync with the music. Some times the metronome is out of sync with what you’re expected to play, making the earlier parts of the lesson difficult or even pointless. The strange thing is that the “final part”/ play through of the lesson is always fine - so the latency setup does at least work some of the time.

In the “play through”, it would be nice to have the option to either “keep going” (current behaviour) or “wait”. This would be advantageous when you mess up and just need a moment to recover.

Overall, it’s a good app, but considering the requirement for precise timing, there’s much improvement that needs to be made.

Some updates please!

Great app! Behind iOS updates, bugs

Amazing app, when and if it works. Great song choices with varying levels of many songs. However, it appears it was meant for iOS 18, not 26, and login is incredibly buggy and has not been working for me. Last update seems to be 1 year ago! Yikes. Kinda suspect for a paid subscription app.

little bug

Dear InstaDrum Support Team,

I am writing to report an issue when using my Roland TD-17KVX2 electronic drum kit with your InstaDrum app.

The TD-17KVX2 is equipped with two crash cymbals. However, when connected to the InstaDrum app, the app is unable to correctly distinguish which crash cymbal is being struck. Instead, the trigger signal often switches incorrectly to the ride cymbal.

I have already tried resetting and reassigning the trigger settings within the app, but the same issue continues to occur.

Could you please advise whether this is a known issue, or if there is a possibility to inspect or update the app to improve compatibility with the TD-17KVX2?

Thank you very much for your time and assistance. I look forward to your reply.

Aplicativo muito bom!!!

O aplicativo é muito bom, tem tradução em português, uma ensinamento muito prático e é possível conectar a bateria eletrônica no iPhone pelo cabo. Agora para os desenvolvedores eu tenho 3 sugestões. A primeira seria colocar na música do treinamento a possibilidade de voltar a música com os dedos, sendo possível fazer isso arrastando os dedos e voltando na parte que você quer, pois o aplicativo só deixa reiniciar a música, fazendo com que ela comece sempre do início. A segunda seria a possibilidade de diminuir a velocidade da música do treinamento, pois as vezes tem algum parte difícil no meio da música e com o ajuste de velocidade podemos aprender o pedaço e depois voltar na velocidade normal. E por último, a possibilidade do microfone captar a bateria acústica, assim as pessoas que possuem esse tipo de bateria poderiam se beneficiar do aplicativo também e vocês ganhariam mais usuários.

Doesn’t work

I have a real physical drum. The app is nice, but it doesn’t pick it up. I can only play by tapping on the on my screen and that is boring and doesn’t help me improve my drum

Connectivity issue

I can get a connection with my Alesis mesh with Nitro module but after a few seconds it still says connected but doesn’t recognize drum strikes. I messaged the app company about it but haven’t heard anything. Would love for this app to actually work cause the idea is awesome.

No beat and no songs, useless.

First of all, this app is useless without e-drums. Secondly, after paying a whopping $20 a month, you’ll find there is a very, VERY limited amount of songs to play along to. On top of that, if you do finally find one you like, you’ll find that the sheet music is completely different than the actual song, AND completely off from the songs Beat… It’s as if the developers slapped some beat along with a tempo (which is completely out of sync) over the downloaded song. This is without mentioning all the bugs and glitches not even allowing you to use the app.

Great fun and effective self learning app

As title. My son and I love it especially there are load of popular pop music to play with. Therefore I joined a year premium plan. However I found the top hat (close) doesn’t works for my drum pad (9 drums + 2 kicks) as it is same as the recommended drum pad from the app. I have no clue how to fix it and it is very frustrating.
