### 3/5 — Improving

*2012-11-29*

This was a pretty stark UI at first but the new update brought some much-needed choice. Still, I'm REALLY missing a light to indicate when the drum pads are engaged. Seems like about every other midi drum app has this, and it is a feature I really am missing here.

### 5/5 — Extensive, and easy

*2012-11-27*

I have dabbled in a few different tools such as this, and so far TapMIDI is one of the most extensive, flexible, and easy-to-use. Oh, and did I mention it works impressively well for being over wifi?

Every once in a while it hiccups, but to be honest if 100% reliability is what you are after you should not be using a tool that connects wirelessly.

Also, I love that TapMIDI works with any program on any platform and looks great!
