This app is exactly as advertised
For .99 cents a month or 5 bucks a year this app I highly recommend this simple drum sampler.
Looking for more options and features add-in
Hi,
I love the software. I have the ideas and wish if you can develop adding to the next version for the drummer that can be able to control the sequence pattern loop (percussion add-in) while playing on the acoustic drum-set:
1. Option of small or BIGGER size for Play/Stop button. Like me i would select bigger button so when i play on my drumset, i can use the left hand to tap play/stop without miss hitting the button. (Current one is to tiny on top and missed tapping it while playing on my drum set)
2. I know i can also create a rhythm loop then import to assign on a certain pad to have it loop playing (trigger mode). For this when setup for the pad currently, i can increase the pitch higher, this will also increase the tempo/speed. If you can add the option here to have both Pitch and tempo fader separately so we can increase/decrease the tempo without changing pitch.
3. Along with option 2. Pitch fader should have the number shows up or down, so we would know how many keys we can transpose easily.
I m looking forward to these new features for the future. Thank you!

Groundbreaking for iOS
I bought this when it came out a couple of years ago and loved it immediately. Since then, it kind of fell off my radar in the sea of apps for iOS and Mac. Just rediscovered it and man - it’s just epic. The sounds are great and the sequencing functions are so well thought out. A real gem 5 stars all day long. Hope to see more from this dev!

Great drum machine app
I think this is often overlooked and underrated drum machine. I love the sounds out of the box and the ability to control them. Everything is at your finger tips. There is quality, versatility, control over the sound, compatibility (auv3) and stability.
Beautiful, flexible, intuitive and fun to play
Well done. Thanks
One Small Request in an otherwise fun app
Thanks for a very good and fun to use app. Is it possible to open an init kit without any patterns selected vs deleting the ones in the default kit? Keep up the great work!
More kits, please
Excellent, fun and reliable drum app. Works very well as AU3 under AUM. Would love to be able to get more kits, preferably some including analog sounds, rock drums, reggae and other types.
Just Get It
More useful than it may appear at first (I was initially put off by the colorful pads, which makes it look like a toy), but I found it quite useful for the variety of drum kits it has and the available modification options.
My big ask for the developer: Please bring this to macOS (desktop) for M1 Macs. My workflow involves developing rough ideas on iPad Pro, then finaling on desktop and there are no fast and easy replacements for this app. Being able to use this as an AU plugin would be a tremendous timesaver. Thanks!

Wasn’t sure at first. Glad I got it.
At first I thought “do I need another drum app?” Well, 10 minutes into it I realized this is the most fun drum app out there. The great presets and simple pattern programming make it easy to get into, and the deep customization options make it a product worth learning and tinkering with.
Get it, it’s useful and fun!

Straightforward sample play - YES!
Follow-up - it’s still awesome!
Use factory samples or import your own and play them back. That’s all I was looking for. Simple good sounding filter, delay and verb. I’m all in on this one! What’s it need? Not much IMHO! I’d like to see reverse sample play (unless I missed it) and AUv3 capability so I can host it without worrying about IAA going away.

Response from developer
Thanks for leaving a review! Glad you're having fun with SDS-x.
Excellent, very intuitive.
Really enjoying this. Just a heads up, the get Pro and the yearly subscription price in the UK App Store are mixed up.
Great 9 pad AU Drum App
I definitely love SDS-x, it’s clean and clear. You can see everything you need to on one screen. It’s easy to import samples and create kits. The presets are pretty good too. It’s easy to use, sounds great, and fits great into any iOS music setup. 5 stars.
Really fun and intuitive
Love this! Please update so you can drag and drop samples with split screen ! Also is recorded automation coming in the future? Thanks
Overlooked gem
This is one of those apps where I’m surprised it doesn’t get mentioned more often. Definitely one of my favorite drum machine/sampler apps. The layout is great, the sounds are great, and actually everything is pretty great.
Best drum sequencer
Absolutely love this app. Simple but deep in features.
Incredible App for Creating
I am amazed at this apps ability to create music so quickly! The sequencer is very easy to use and if you want to play the pads it auto quantizes. So whether your an experienced beat maker or no nothing about music, you can be creating in seconds! The Ableton Link feature is 🔥. It’s the 2021 version of a drum circle where everyone can be linked and create a groove and music. This app is a must have if you’re a creative or just love music!

Great Drum Machine!
You guys nailed it. Such a simple, intuitive workflow and most importantly for me, super high fun factor. Killer internal kits but I was quick to get my own hits and sounds imported into SDS without any issues. Man, good work on this. Loving creating with it a ton.
Maybe midi learn and an amplitude envelope is in store for future updates? Can’t think of much more to add to it. Awesome!

Bought this a few minutes ago…
I’m already super impressed. This is a FANTASTIC piece of design - really - it’s beautiful and useful in so many ways (especially - simplicity leads to victory) and as of right now the only thing I’m missing is a sampler included with auto slicing via transient detection. Well ok, ADSR would be nice too and ESPECIALLY 3D Touch support for phones that have it (instead of vertical “velocity” for the pads). As a last suggestion that is ultimately not as relevant since we can create kits, is, please add more acoustic kits. I actually really like a few kits here, but I’m just not an electronic guy so most of them will probably not see much use by me.
Regardless, this is a fantastic AU and I will be using it a lot from now on. Thank you! Will definitely keep an eye on this dev! 🥸

This app is easy to use, full of color and so many choices for sounds!! It was easy to pick up and make my own jams.
