Always solid

I keep coming back tot his app for a fun musical playtime. I’m happy it’s been kept up to date by the devs who made it during a storm of similarly fun and creative apps and are in the rare group of folks who keep it updated

Shouldn’t have slept on this one

Being able to choose different midi channels for the 4 tracks is great - but it’s the transform options that bring the magic.

A kit for all seasons

I have played hand drums for more than 50 years and have been looking for a graphic rhythm tool. It would be nice to see the instruments in concentric rings but maybe the next release (beggars/choosers). Great work, thanks!!

Does not work with headphones

This app only works from my iPhone speaker. It will not work with wired or Bluetooth headphones as far as I can tell.

I wrote customer service and never got a response. Disappointed

Não funciona em fones de ouvido

Só isso. Parece q desativa algo q não descobri como resolver
