### 5/5 — Veramente ottima

*2024-11-07, version 1.2*

Tutte le funzioni che servono, ampia possibilità di personalizzazione, chiara e ben fatta.
Cosa si può desiderare di più?
Forse delle mani bioniche…😏, ma accontentiamoci

### 5/5 — Progredire costantement

*2023-06-15, version 1.2*

Bellissima app per esercitare i rudimenti. Da quando l’ho scaricata, ho cominciato ad esercitarmi tutti i giorni ottenendo dei risultati eccellenti. Se poi ti spingi un po piu’ in la e applichi i vari esercizi orchestrandoli sul tuo drum set puoi raggiungere un ottimo livello di tecnica. Consigliata per tutti. Principianti e pro!

### 5/5 — Tolle App mit einer kleinen Macke

*2022-08-15*

Super App. Verwende diese regelmässig. Allerdings stimmt das Tempo nicht immer. An die Entwickler. Das scheint irgendein Bug zu sein. Wenn ich mit 80 bpm eine Übung mache und dann zur nächsten Übung wische stimmt die Geschwindigkeit nicht mehr. Das Metronom feuert dann eine viel schnellere Geschwindigkeit ab. Wenn ich die Geschwindigkeit herunter regle 1x laufen lasse und dann wieder auf 80 bpm einstelle passt es wieder.

### 5/5 — Very educational

*2022-06-23, version 1.2*

I enjoy practicing my rudiments with this App

### 5/5 — Ottima

*2022-03-27, version 1.2*

Ottima app per allenarsi sul pad e per storicizzare le attività. Unica pecca è che non si sincronizza con gli altri dispostivi Apple per cui le attività devi effettuarle sempre da un solo dispositivo

### 4/5 — 90% great

*2021-04-21, version 1.2*

A great tool to learn rhythm and speed. Only fault is on 3 rudiments, where the lead in count is wrong.

### 5/5 — Great App

*2021-02-09, version 1.2*

Great app, I have been using this app for years and it’s exactly what I was looking for. Definitely should be on every drummer’s radar.

### 3/5 — It’s ok

*2020-03-02, version 1.2*

Decent for $1 but could use annotations. I’m a beginner at reading and seeing things broken down into l L r R is a lot easier than notes

### 4/5 — An excellent app, but can use some fundamental improvements

*2020-01-19, version 1.2*

This is an awesome app. I personally highly recommend it. However, the interface needs some much needed tweaks to make it a great app. Namely:

1) BPM cannot be adjusted while playing a rudiment and could use a + and - adjustments to make adjusting BPM more efficient. 

2) BPM should have an acceleration mode to help improve skill.

3) The user shouldn’t have to hunt for their next rudiment, beyond the opening screen. The screen should remain where you left it. Not jump back to the beginning every single time!

4) As a bonus, this app could and should include more exotic rudiments (e.g., herta, etc.) Not just the basic rudiments. 

Still overall, it’s an awesome in any drummer’s arsenal.

### 5/5 — Great app! Would definitely recommend.

*2019-11-30, version 1.2*

I have practiced my rudiments more than I ever have because if this app. It takes out the guess work of whether you’re playing them correctly or not, and it keeps statistics of your practice sessions.
