Please add BPM indicators. ### 3/5 — Good beats, loud bass, still not audio us compatible *2016-03-29* Just bought this when I saw it had been updated after so long, and had audiobus integration. However, it doesn't show up for any AB slot. Also, the lows are super heavy on the kick drums. I like the beats but this could still use some work. ### 2/5 — Good loops, no way to use them really *2015-07-25* Maybe make a way to string the loops together and make a song? Sheesh mon. Bambaclat. ### 3/5 — No BPM? *2013-05-05, version 1.8* Cool useful beats for sketches BUT no specific BPM...not cool. ### 3/5 — Pretty good app *2012-06-14* I can't see using it other than for reference as a drummer, but it's still pretty good ### 3/5 — free drum apps? *2011-12-27, version 1.7* the title splash screen for this app says free drum apps, but I paid for it. also as a paid app I don't want to see adds at the top of the main page. the drum loops are few in number, about 8 variations on the one pattern. can't argue for 69p I guess but this is quite limited. the loops sound good which I guess is the bottom line. I expected a few more patterns tho ### 4/5 — Niceness *2011-06-23* Great ap for any musician who enjoys proper roots.... Needs tempo changer... Some cuts don't groove together. ### 4/5 — Pretty swell *2011-04-24* Awesome and free?? It's going to be a good Easter! Can't wait to see more free loops ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Unusable *2021-08-07* The patches can’t be played without stopping, they are in different tempos and can’t be interchanged smoothly. I reached out to a developer for explanation and haven’t received any. I want my money back. Please do not say it’s cheap so who cares. I have sponsored your unprofessional work and can’t request a refund. If you respond and refund, I will delete this review. ### 1/5 — Horrible *2020-07-18* Horrible quality, if you’re serious about finding true reggae sound this is not the app for you. Coming from a reggae/dancehall musician. ### 1/5 — Needs work *2015-09-02* Loops are nice. Controls do not work well (iPhone and iPad) ### 1/5 — Don't bother *2015-05-03, version 1.8* Waste of time. ### 1/5 — I wan my $0.99 back!!! *2015-02-01* Worthless!! Should be taken off App Store! I think you could almost count all the loops on one hand, tempo clock just stupid. ### 1/5 — Don't waste your money *2014-06-08, version 1.8* Amy lower than 80 bpm is unusable as it does not play it slower it stretches it and it does not sound like drums. You also can't download samples. Total Shite ### 1/5 — Not good *2013-08-05* Waste of money on a few loops. I wish i could get my money back. ### 1/5 — Not very good *2012-04-17* Just a few beats here... Ok to toy with but no real serious value ### 1/5 — Out of time! *2011-10-09, version 1.2* Loops don't repeat un time I feel robed ### 2/5 — One Kit Wonder *2016-12-24* One dimensional reggae kit break down with tempo slider - weak app ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Dis appah zappah be true *2016-04-16* luv me de loops mon ### 5/5 — Phenomenal *2016-04-15* A genius app that should be downloaded by every musician. Thanks for the creativity and thought that went into this very useful and fun tool. ### 5/5 — Got Reggae? *2016-03-29* This clever Ap is nothing short of a blast especially when I plug my phone into speakers. The volume is still cool if it's just the phone however. Best feature aside from the cool reggae slips is the ability to control the tempo. Must have played with this for an hr. straight completely Jamaican my girlfriend crazy Mon... Sorry for my bad jokes! This Ap is the real deal and fun to pull out at a party... True story ### 5/5 — Back with another one of those..... *2016-03-24* On point!!! ### 5/5 — Beats upon beats *2016-03-23* Great little free app for those who remember dub before dub-step ### 5/5 — Fire *2016-03-23* App is absolutely great! I have been trying to break into reggae for a bit, but it's hard finding a solid drummer. Downloaded this app, poof no need for a drummer ### 5/5 — Precisely the app I needed. *2011-04-27* I just needed a loop background for practicing guitar. This worked fantastically. The download was a bit long--but well worth it. Perhaps you could make an mp3 version. Thanks for this free app! ### 4/5 — Not bad *2016-08-27* I'm giving this app 4 because I only need one beat, and this has at least one good loop. But you should know that at least two of the 6 main loops are flawed (the verse 1 and the verse 4 beat). The developer needs to fix those loops so they're actually in time. Right now it's like playing with a drummer that screws up at the same time on every measure. ### 4/5 — Loved it...while it worked! *2013-12-10* It was working great and I used it a lot for about a week. Came back after a week, and it just hangs on the title screen. Bummer if I have to buy it again.....but I would as I like it. I know its only a dollar, but it should work, right? ### 4/5 — Good loops *2012-06-27, version 1.8* Good loops --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
