Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Senstroke at none against Drum Sets's shown. Senstroke also leads on rating (4.8 vs 4.4) and update cadence (monthly vs every 6 months). Drum Sets's advantage is ratings volume (18 vs 5) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 16.0). On price, review sentiment, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
