Drum Coach
Read full descriptionHide full description
DrumCoach is a focused practice tool for drummers, built around a sample-accurate metronome and a set of practice modes that cover timing, reading, grooves, rudiments, and ear training. METRONOME Tap tempo, adjustable subdivisions (quarter, eighth, triplet, sixteenth, and more), accent control, count-in, and randomized or alternating mutes to test your internal clock. RHYTHM READING A library of notated reading exercises across five levels of difficulty, plus a random sight-reading generator that keeps producing new patterns so you never memorize the answer. GROOVES Over 50 drum grooves across rock, funk, reggae, ska, dancehall, reggaeton, cumbia, and merengue, shown as a step grid or a scrolling note highway, with optional groove playback. RUDIMENTS 18 rudiments from the PAS 40 International Drum Rudiments standard, with adjustable tempo and accents, shown as sticking cards so you can see exactly what to play. STICK CONTROL 40 classic stick control exercises with rep counting and auto-advance, for building endurance and hand control. DICTATION Ear-training exercises: listen to a rhythm or a drum fill, try to play it back from memory, then reveal the notation to check yourself. Fills are transcribed directly from a published drumming method book. PRACTICE LOG Every session is tracked automatically, broken down by day and by practice mode, so you can see exactly where your practice time is going. SONGS Upload your own songs: DrumCoach separates the drums from the music and finds the beat, so you can play along at any tempo from 50% to 150% without changing the pitch, with a click that follows the song and a count-in. Search, filter and organize them in playlists. A demo song is included. DRUMCOACH PREMIUM All the practice tools are free, with no ads. Premium is an optional auto-renewing monthly subscription that lets you keep up to 50 of your own songs (free accounts keep one) and syncs your practice across your iPhone, iPad, Mac and the web. New subscribers get a one-week free trial. Payment is charged to your Apple Account when you confirm the purchase. The subscription renews automatically every month unless it is canceled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period, and your account is charged for renewal within 24 hours before the end of the period. You can manage or cancel it anytime in your App Store account settings.

Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: Drum Coach at every 5 days against Chopsy's every 2 months. Chopsy's advantage is iOS requirement (15.0 vs 26.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
