Drum Beats+ Rhythm Machine App Reviews

Totally hooked already. Only had this for a few days, and it's already worth every penny. The preset beats have been great as jam tracks for me, regardless of the style I feel like playing. The kits are highly varied and sound real. Thx

Getting better with time, but... Could you please add some Start, Ending effects for each rhythm, as well as two different styles/patern for the same rhythm which could be used/interchanged when playing a song? This would be nice as well for having rhythm intro and ending loops. I think this could be controlled with compatible pedals. Thanks.

Useful app for guitarist accompaniment. I like how easy it is to adjust the beat, and I will use it to augment my sound while playing and singing (and to keep me on time which I need help with). Will be great practice for if I ever start to play with a real drummer.

Simple and Serves Its Purpose Well. As a bass player, this is exactly what I’m looking for in terms of practice and writing new bass lines. The variety of beats that comes with the purchase is pretty satisfying as well. If you want even more variety, there’s an option to purchase at a reasonable price.

Good app not not always friendly with AirPlay. I play the beat through an AirPlay speaker to practice guitar and there's some glitch where sometimes it will stop working all together and not play sounds through my phone or the speaker. The only way I can get it to work again is to reboot my phone. It's annoying. Other wise the app is cool and has lots of great beats. I would also like it if there was a way to access all the beats within the specific key signature in one place. I'm still glad I bought it overall.

Great little App. The only problem with this app is, it's so good and useful that you wish it had more features! I use it every day as a teacher. Great quality, great sound. You will want the whole package so buy the whole thing. I'm really hoping they keep expanding this thing and adding more features. It's that good.

BPM not flexible enough. If this app allowed me to adjust the BPM by increments of one then I would have given it 5 stars. Only a handful of songs I play have the BPM in increments of 5, so I cannot use this app for the majority of songs and it does not make sense for me to switch to this app just for those songs. So this app unfortunately is useless to me. The concept is great and if there is a way to change the BPM by 1 then please let me know and I will change the rating.

Great app. I love this app. I teach junior high band and use it with my 6th grade beginning classes in place of a metronome at times to add some fun variety for scales and things. Love being able to change tempos and bookmark favorites. I suppose there could always be a greater variety of beats to choose from but the app certainly serves its purpose and I just love it. So do my kids.

Good drum accompaniment, but many locked patterns. I use Airplay to drive external speakers for accompaniment when I practice sax. My only complaint is that many of the drum patterns cannot be accessed unless you pay additional for a subscription. For example, only 3 out of 20+ beat patterns are available in the Jazz section unless you buy the subscription. Simple user interface is a plus.

Love this app to help with rhythm and staying on beat (haha).. Guitar teacher and musician extraordinare, Eddie Bush told me about this app when I came in for a lesson and it definitely helped my timing and staying on beat (lol). This app paired with some new strings on my Yamaha acoustic, and the drive to keep going made a world of difference in just 5 minutes into the practice. ✌️🎸

Nice but one big gripe. I like this app, but am only giving three stars because I have one big gripe with it. You pay $4 already for the app. But it limits you to tempo increments of 5 (95, 100, 105, etc.) unless you pay more money. Having increments of 1 should NOT be considered a pro feature for which you pay more. That should be a basic feature covered by $4. UPDATE: With the new update, they have remedied my complaint. The base app now allows fine tempo increments of 1. Thank you! 5 stars now.

Simple, elegant - so many great options!. Out of all of the drum apps available to use as a rhythm accompaniment track, this is the most straightforward. You can choose the rate usually in accurately, and there are a relatively large number of options for rhythm patterns. Start and stop button is easy to use, and starts back on the downbeat. I am not a drummer, and I am not trying to learn drums – I just want an app that will give me the background drum/rhythm I need for simple recording, or even live purposes.

Groove!. I have progammed beats for decades. I love this app. I rehease and arrange songs, I practice scales, record with it. It has changed the nature recording songs with the band. A percussionist and drummer play around and with Drum Beats +. The whole band bought and all in app purchase grooves. I bought them all for my bass player. You are heroes for making this app. "You will never use a click track again!" Greg Murat- Singer Songwriter and engineer.

Great app but needs to have Audiobus support. I don’t know what happened, but on my old ipad i have an older version and it works just fine with Audiobus, with the newest version, not at all ( hence the 4 star rating). I payed for the lifetime subscription because it really is a great app. With Audiobus, this app would be perfect!

Simply The Best!. I am a teacher and musician. I use it with my students every day in place of the boring metronome. I have tried many other apps and this one is hands down my favorite! The beat packs are affordable, nice sounding, and have a good variety. Highly recommend. This app is essential for any musician.

A Metronome On Steroids! Love It!. Playing along with a regular metronome will help you bring your playing into alignment with the actual tempo, but this app will give you the luxury of a more 'true to life' playing situation while you're at it. One thing I like is the help it is to have the occasional drum beat 'turn around' at the start of the measure to help me know where the measures start, something that is easy for me to lose track of while practicing. Highly recommended music practice tool.

Makes practice fun.. I am a bluegrass player. Using this app makes practicing fiddle tunes, scales and chord progressions on guitar, mandolin fun and challenging. Wish only that I could change the tempo in smaller increments than 5s. But that is really not that big a deal. I have purchased several of the different "packages" and like them all. In my real life I am a middle school band director. Last year I played this app through our PA system during scale practice. The kids loved playing scales with various rhythmic backgrounds. Great app for any musician.

Great grooves. For quick grooves on the go, it's hard to beat this app for your phone. I use it in my practice room with our small band when a drummer is not available. Very easy to use, and very reliable after using for two days now. Love it.

What took this app so long?. What took this app so long to be developed? Why I ask? Because I've been a music teacher and a Music Academy owner for 14 years and I needed a program like this to 1) help my students improve their timing in the classroom, 2) have a nice style appropriate groove while accompanying my vocal students during their lessons, and 3) allow my drum students to hear various grooves, and practice these grooves in addition to the curriculum study. This app is a must have! Jared

Must have metronome. I was so tired of practicing with metronome apps, all those clicks and snaps, that I was delighted to find this group of beats to play to. I usually stick with the straight beats for running scales, but there's plenty of variety for inspiration and to aid writing songs. This is an app I use every day and is why I give it a five star rating. I do have one gripe that I know others have too. It's the fact that it only goes down to sixty beats per minute. If you want to practice a slow ballad, say at 50 bpm, then you have to set it at 100 bpm, which makes it sound too busy.

Too many upsells. For a paid app, there are too many basic features missing for serious musicians without having to purchasing extra features: the ability to select a tempo in increments smaller than +/-5, and the inability to filter out unpurchased add-on grooves leads to absurd "VIP" content clutter in the UI. To their credit, the developer did respond quickly, acknowledging that these were annoying issues, but that eliminating them will require subscriptions. I will be looking into Drum Genius to use instead of this app.

This is NOT the old app. Most of the worthwhile beats are now not just extra $$ but annual subscription. $20/year. Are you kidding me? For low resolution samples that sound like a 1980s drum machine? I was only barely willing to pay for this app but that was with the understanding that I’d have the same library of sounds that my guitar player has on his older version of the app. Not so. They dumbed it down with so they can hit you up for more money. I wish I could return this. There are better free apps available.

Beats a Regular Click Click Click. This is a great app. I'm an old-school country and western swing guitarist and between the provided beats and the country package I have everything I need for practicing. Metronomes are much better than having something playing the chord progression a lot of the time since you can stop to work on a particular passage or fingering and pick right back up without having to restart or find your place in the chord progression. I wish you could select your own BPM instead of going by the five BPM increments the way the app is set up, and I wish it had more range in terms of tempo's. I would really rated about a 4.8 instead of 5 because of those limitations, but even so a great, great app and a lot of fun to play with.

Great Practice Tool. This app has inspired me to get back to my practice routine. This app provides many useful drum beats that make practicing fun again. I keep it on my IPad plugged into my pedal board so I can practice privately through headphones. I Love it. This app has great sound, very realistic sound to help inspire me to want to play more and more. Thank You for creating this reasonably priced app!

Terrific practice companion. 5 stars. Don't know how I got along without this. Not live-instrument quality, but totally adequate for my daily practice sessions. I purchased most of the genre packs and generally have all the beats needed for anything I take a stab at. I feel that the beats packs are well-priced, and commercial services like this have a better chance of sticking around and improving their products. It isn't mentioned anywhere, so I thought others will want to know that the app runs perfectly in the background on my iPad Air 2, which was the main problem I had with other drum loop apps. I was able to run the loops while running both Guitar Pro and the Line 6 Mobile Pod. Big thank you and Kudos to the developers - please continue developing and supporting this app. I look forward to expanded packs in the future. This is one of those must-have apps for guitar practice.

Dynamic teaching too. I've been teaching drums for over 40 years and have been playing for over 60 years. I have seen and used many creative ways of training drummers. Books, sheet music, hands on teaching and metronomes were all we had back in early years of my training. All of the modern technology, computers apps of this nature are wonderful tools, To help make the modern drummer the best that he can be. This app does what drum machines and metronomes always do, "Hold the drummer accountable for keeping the beat and staying in the pocket. One of the best drum machine apps out there.

Blast of rhythms !!!. If you want to practice with the real thing, this is it. No matter what music genre you love and play, this app covers a wide variety of rhythms for your needs, giving you the chance to expand your rhythmic library with in-app purchases, from rock, pop, jazz, latin and more. It's impressive the high quality of the sounds and how useful they can be, it's the perfect companion if you don't have a drummer or percussionist on your band. I love it !!!

Pretty spare unless you pay for a subscription.. I was looking for some funky world beat type grooves to practice with, and have the desktop app version, which is really good, but the iOS version requires a subscription to get to anything besides basic rock, country and pop rhythms, no way to purchase a lasting set. I could be wrong, maybe I went for a subscription there as well,, but for the money, there are more rhythms in Drum Genius and you are not locked into a subscription format. Seems every app developer wants you to pay rent for the rest of your life these days.

Wish these were included with my DAW.. These are really great drum tracks, I wish these had been included in my Digital Audio Workstation (DAW)! They are really nice loops and you can just turn them on and let them go, they are so much better than a click track or a metronome to practice with. To get more, I think they are a bit expensive and wish there was an option to purchase all of them for like $10 to $15. To buy them all gets a bit expensive... Still that's no enough to drop the app from 5 Stars, this is just a great app and it works perfectly and is a perfect practice AND performance application! The more I use this, the more I absolutely love it! It's the best!

Very useful... I've deleted all the others. This drum app is excellent. I own a professional drum machine but I use this app more often for practice and improvising. The interface is easy to use and the sounds are great. It runs in the background under other apps so I can use it with guitar amp simulators. Worth the $$$.

Ditch the click track. It's pretty much a given that you must practice with a timing device. I never could get used to a metronome or other click track. This app makes it bearable, and your playing will improve dramatically. If you can't play on time...you can't play.

Love this app. So much more fun to use than a metronome. I'm a longtime player, this app makes practicing technical stuff fun. I'd love to see the ability for me to create my own beats, sounds, and patterns in a variety of duple, triple, and odd meters. Hope you continue to develop and expand on what you've got here.

Great Starter App. Please don’t let my rating deter you from buying this app. This app has a ton of great beats to work with while learning. However, to gain access to the majority of what this app offers you have to drop much more money than I personally think is necessary. If I’m going to spend that much money then I will go ahead and buy a professional studio program. It’s just a few dollars more and although I might have to write my own beats it’s much more versatile. I do however highly recommend this for a great metronome and simple beats to learn and dig out new ideas. The developers of this app have done a great job but may have attached a little bit too high a price tag on its full capabilities

Funky drummer. I'm loving the app. I'm a 52yr old guy, getting back into playing again, after other life commitments. Really like that I can slow the tempo down to learn a groove. Better than slowing down a turntable. Between this a garage band , I'm have a blast learning and playing. Funky drummer is a beast to groove!!!

Just purchase the app. I just got the app today. Loving the drum beats Are they any future plans to have a counter for the app that maybe flash numbers or something so you can keep track of what beat are on. That would make this app perfect for me.

Had it for a year!. Love it! Great writing tool . I play guitar and sing and record it all on GBand . The app can be recorded there. I prefer real acoustic drums for everything but this gives my drummer and bass player a clear picture to go from before rehearsal . Great as a future reference for song ideas /writing tool. I wish there were more swing beats and surf beats . No surf beats on mine. Total control of tempo and volume . It’s a keeper.

Good teaching tool. I downloaded this app to make practicing my scales more interesting, but I found a greater use for it in my music teaching. When I introduce a student to the metronome it is hard for some of them to grasp tempo because they can’t feel it. This app helps me teach rhythm and tempo in a more interesting way that keeps the students engaged.

Great App and Very Responsive Developer. This is one of my favorite apps that I use daily. There way a change in the app to offer some cool in app purchases and one of the free beats was accidentally switched to paid. I emailed the developer and they were quick to reply back telling me that it was a mistake. Great customer service!!! Highly recommend!!!

Killer accompaniment to training and playing. I needed something other than clicks from a metronome to keep myself interested. I have been playing for a long time so this was a great idea. I was looking to try another app from this developer but they are working out some tweaks. Anyway, I digress. This app has more drum tracks, straight metronome clicks and different types of rhythms and even inspiring tracks. With this being a very easy to use app, you can’t lose when looking for something to jam to and improve your playing. I have to recommend this app for guitarists, bassists, anyone looking to have a great and extensive list of great rhythms and times to work and play with. Five out of five stars.

Bap, bap boom! :-). Look, let's be honest here. This is a totally simplistic app, it's not meant to do anything super sophisticated, but that said, it's a lot of fun and great practice tool. I love just scrolling through the different grooves and letting em' inspire a groove. Or finding a beat that fits a groove I'm working on. And it all helps with my timing and my tempo. Especially the practice section where the beats drop out for a bit and come back in. That really helps keep my playing honest and my focus sharp. All of the drum tracks sound great either in my headphones or jacked into the aux jack on my guitar amp, or jacked into my home stereo. Even through my iPhone's speakers it sounds good. They really EQ'd the sounds really well to sound great in a variety of situations. A lot of fun. Totally easy and simple to use....

Better than a metronome. Great app with excellent in-app beat packs that I don't even mind paying for! It has an excellent interface, where you can bookmark your favorite beats and easily access them later. The ability to control the BPM is a breeze, too. Lose the metronome, buy this app and practice to some sweet beats immediately!

Good but not close to being great.. The lowest you can go in this app is only 60 BPM. Sometimes I need lower BPM to learn new beats. Think beginner developer. Can't get lower the 60 here. And if you want 93 or 114 bpm forget it. The bpm goes up in 5 increments. And no sheet music to learn or see the music being played. And that why I would never upgrade to the pro version. The free version is just not close to where it needs to be. All of the 5 star reviews must be fake.

Easy to use, lots of great beats. This app took me about five seconds to learn how to use, which is my favorite thing about it. Also the beats are really great and the sound is good and all of that. For about 25 bucks you can download the rest of their collection, but the $5 version does offer a lot. I would like to see a function where you can sort the beats by time signature or other things. And also a notes section for your favorites. Definitely worth the five bucks.

Change the tempo. I really like the beats, but it's just that it's hard for me to play my guitar with the beats rhythmically because either the beats were too fast and too slow. I want to know if we can change the tempo by 1 instead of 5.

Great AP but:. This is a great application but what I find missing are standard ballroom rhythms. There is no Tango, Foxtrot or Cha Cha beat and the only Rumba beat is too busy. While it may be possible to adapt the preset beats to fit ballroom style It would be nice if the names of those presets that are adapted and saved in the favorites folder could be renamed in order to customize.

Finally got one!. I play bass guitar, and I essentially feel that you need drums to fully develop more as a player, I've been messing with this for a couple of days now, but I feel like I'm listening so much more differently and getting more in depth musically by understanding on how a drummer thinks and plays. I think it's great for any instrumentalist even drummers it's a good tool for inspiration.

Richard. Bought it. Can’t install it on my Pc. When it downloads & works, I’ll write a review. On my phone, it’s great. Didn’t know new beats were available until a few weeks ago. I’m sure there’s a reason, but if the beats could be broken down a little more in tempo it’d be great. Still fine as it is 👍🏼

Terrific practice/ rehearsal and writing tool. Everything that the five-star reviews say. Our band sometimes has to practice without the drummer, and I've always been able to find the right beat to go with a song just from the free ones, even if it sometimes took up precious group time auditioning through a few. Now I have most of my go-to beats written down in my sheet music or at least Favorited in the app. For writing, it is fun and easy to dial up a beat that is infinitely more inspiring than a metronome and won't bog down your workflow.

Perfect for guitar practice. I love using this app to provide simple backing drum tracks while I practice guitar. Unlike most drum machines which require you to program a pattern, with this I simply press play and start pickin'. Great alternative to a metronome as it still will keep your rhythm very solid but adds the enjoyment of a backing drum track.

Awesome!. I would give it 6 stars if I could. I am tired of my metronome and wanted simple to use convenient drum tracks to play with. I almost bought a beat buddy pedal but this is better because it's portable as an app on my phone. I hope they keep some new tracks coming!

I paid for the full version but apparently there is still more to pay?. I was looking for some bossa and samba style rhythms, they are available; however I didn’t realise i would have to pay to save them as favorites and adjust the tempo. Great app other wise, but if i new this i wouldn’t have purchased. Money back please?

Review. It’s a great app perfect for playing and practicing too I think a visual cue could be an improvement to a near perfect job

Drum Beats +. Just love this app. It is simple to use, intuitive and great tones. I use the "Alesis" for gigging but would use this if my programmable DM is threw a wobbler. PAN

Enjoy. I am enjoying trying to play along to some of these beats, my only complaint is that to save beats I had to upgrade to pro even after paying for the app

Good metronome, but pricey. I bought this app ($7.99). It has a small number of included beats, which are good. The App Store says packs of beats can be purchased at additional cost (remember, already paid $7.99!). But when you go to the shop page you can’t purchase any packs. Instead, you can pay for a monthly/yearly/forever subscription. This despite advertising the ability to purchase packs. I get subscribing to a magazine, or maybe a music or video stream...but a metronome?? I did request app support asking how to purchase best packs, as advertised, but didn’t get a reply. So, is the app worth $7.99? I’m struggling to say yes. It’s a good app, just expensive when you have to buy additional packs of beats...oh wait, you can’t buy them, they want you to $$subscribe.

Great App - use it a lot for scale work. Fantastic app. Would love to be able to increment in 1bpm but otherwise fantastic.

Great app. Awesome used as a metronome. Much more interesting than 'tick, tick'

Magic app. I am so impressed with this app for my live performances,it's quick and easy to use. The only thing I would like to see is a way to name a song along side the beat in the favorites section. Then I could arrange a set with the relevant beat.. That would put the icing on the cake along with an extra star on the app rating.. Many thanks..

Love it!. Great app. Love it's simplicity...

Good app. Missing fills guys. Good app could be great if you add fills

Consistent updates. Thanks what a great app! Have used it for a year now and very pleased with the consistent updates and the extra style packs. They have been really useful for generating new ideas for songs.

Essential practise & rehearsal tool. With drummers hard to find, and harder to keep interested in a jamming world, this app is a lifesaver. Works flawlessly.

Drums. I love it I practice my bass to these all the time. I hope they add some more soon.

Very good replacement for a Drum Machine. I've been looking for a decent App that can replace a drum machine satisfactorily, I think this comes pretty close. Many rhythmic patterns that can be use for gigs, practice or just as a metronome. It'll never replace a drummer but a great working tool. I only wished the sounds change be changed for each pattern to suit my use. If there are several drum kits to choose from and then applied to the selected pattern, this would be an awesome App. But hopefully in time, that can be a reality Thanks, Andrew

I don't have an Airturn. This app would be far more useful if external midi control was not locked to using an Airturn. I use a very powerful midi foot controller which I use with a Bluetooth midi adapter. I can't use it with this app, which makes the app next to useless for me

Rip off. You will notice most of the good reviews are many years old. Install app. Buy full version. Come back later and mysteriously app is ‘updated’ and locked away beats are needed to be purchased again. ‘Restore purchases’ option is not applicable. App owner is a POS and milking it based on some good five year old reviews. I’ve paid and I am deleting.

I like it!. I think this is a very good practice tool for guitar, piano or brass players alone or together. With plenty of realistic drum beats it is a great speed trainer. I love that I can use it through a speaker dock or the aux in of an amp or even a P.A. Simple to use and does what it is supposed to do. I like the hit songs feature I would give this app 5 stars if it had 5 bpm tempo intervals and if it automatically changed to the suggested tempo's

Great!. As a guitarist just what I need! As said by others need a better way to change tempo. Also, anyone know if any of the footswitches out there can be used to stop/start it? Rob

Very good. With out doubt this is well worth buying, it has every drum beat you will need, at a fraction of the cost of a drum machine you buy in a music store. The sound through my amps is just like having a drummer backing me.

Great app!. Could u guys please pleaae please make some reggae/ caribbean/calypso/ soca beats? Dancehall too! Would be the first one to buy em!!

Not enough in this app and overpriced. Disappointing app This had the potential to be very good but doesn't offer the value of a free app let alone one for $6 This app could be good if they add more beats but right now this feels like an app in testing stages with hardly any beats. Waste of money at the moment but could be good once they populate the library.

Drum beats+. Awesome easy to nab better than my metronome!!

Drums. Best drum app for practice awesome

Excellent. Great sounds

Audiobus gem. Excellent alternative for a click track, now used often.

Meets my expectations. Easy to operate, lots of choices, easier to get along with than a drummer.

Excellent. I recommend it to all my students as it's much more fun playing to a drum track than playing to. Metronome.

SUPERB but.... Superb product, but why is the tempo resolution restricted to 5 BPM instead of 1 BPM? This limitation means you can't set rhythms to 112 BPM or 124 BPM etc. You're restricted to 110 BPM or 125 BPM.

Very helpful. I was struggling with timing this app helped me out and have fun at the same time

Really nice app. Very nice, and easy to find your way round. Would be nice to be able to rename favourite beats with name and tempo. Again, nice simple app :)

My Favourite Musical App. PerfectPerfect backing app!! Perfect backing app!! Thanks

Expensive. Thought this app would have all the beats I needed with the first purchase. Beware the in app purchases. These are the best beats and very expensive. I didn’t go any further than the first purchase, felt I had been duped. Outrageous life time purchase cost. Yuck.

Review drum app. I just got this app just what I need. I have a few drum type apps they are complex great if your into drums. I'm a guitarist I want simple( not to simple) drums to play over, write riffs and songs. So this app is perfect

Amazing. I have been using this app to improve my guitar timing

Great app. Use this drum beats all the time excellent

Excellent for quick practice. So simple to use a and really nice sounding beats for guitar practice.

Love it. Would be great to have some free updates But a great app .. great for rehearsals & practice at home 😁😁😁😁😁

SUPERB. I use this app all the time to practice music to ... a good range of interesting and varied backing beats

A Must for every musician. The best drum beat app hands down

Great clean simple beats to play with. Great sound and excellent beats

Tempo control. Neat rhythms but as previous reviewer has stated, it wants a more convenient tempo control e.g. up and down speed buttons at the top level to allow quicker changes. Also finer increments are needed (At least 5bpm but preferably 1 bpm steps). Also, how about some 7/8 etc. patterns etc.? PS what's going on with that waltz pattern?

DeCaff music. I’ve used some of these rhythms at live gigs They are great

❤. Just Awesome!!!

Pretty cool little app.. Nice little drum machine with some useful presets. As a working muso it's handy to have done good basic patterns to play with. I hoe to see some more in the near future as well as a bit more tempo control. You won't wright to many songs using it but I find it great for just having a jam.

Nice app, more time signatures please. Simple and quick to use, but would like some more time signatures please.

Brilliant and simple. Not exactly cheap, but very well worth the money! Wasted lots of money on other apps, but this one beats them all because it is the easiest one to set up. Love and use it all the time, works obviously also very well as a metronome!

good but..... Good sound and beats, but Tempo only adjustable by 5-bmp increments. Need finer adjustment selection (as in, may need a tempo of 162bmp, but am limited to option of 160 or 165, nothing in between). Tempo should be adjustable in 1-bpm units if desired. Sorry, gotta knock off 2 stars.

Exactly.... This is exactly what I was looking for. A simple but versatile app that will run in the background while I’m using my songbook app to play a song. It has a nice variety of rhythms without being too complicated. Wish it had a way to remote start so I wouldn’t have to switch apps after I start it.

Need tap tempo. Need a tap tempo

Love this new app!. Really enjoying playing with this new app. Keeps me locked in no matter what style or feel I'm playing in. Great value and easy to transport such a powerful app!

Nice!!. This is very good for working out a tempo and a beat when you are working on a song. More variation and passes and rolls would make it even better!! But I'm not complaining just a wish! Thanks

Great for songwriting!. I love this app. It's exactly what I have been looking for to help create ideas for songwriting!

Great. Solid app that does the job nicely.

Is anybody there?. Have you abandoned this app?

Could be great. I would like a drum machine app for playing out as a single guitarist. This sounds good, but has no real features. Countin is fine, beats are good.....but I tried to send an email outlining what i would like but it was returned... Is there no one there? I have some ideas which could put this over the top and even if it is $20 it would be worth it.

Jim. Easy, intuitive, lots of choice!

Basic functions now hard to use. This was a good app until they started to make it hard to find and use the basic starter beats. A low cost app should off basic functions that are easy to use that is upgradeable. Some feature VIP beats are fine but now it is hard to get to the basics. Too much searching and scrolling.

Waste of money. Only thing coming out of my iPhone is different pitches of cricket sounds very disappointed

Instant drums. Love this app. Easy to use. Sounds great. Wish could tie beats together. But then it might cease to be simple to use, unless....?

Easy. Simple simple simple I use this for all my jamming now so much fun and easy to use love it thanks guys :)

Tempo change. Great app! Full tempo change capability, instead of just 5 bpm would make it a 5 star. Great grooves to choose from. Really like it!

Good sound very practical. Good sound. Very easy to use. Very practical

Awesome. I love it

Well Done app. Excellent app. Great motivator. With all the different beats you'll never put your guitar down.

A GREAT alternative to a metronome!. An ad for this app kept showing up on my Facebook news feed, so I decided to have a look at it. I downloaded the 'free' version, just for fun, and was impressed...so I bought the full, basic pack. Really like it! Sounds fine on iPad AND through PA system. Will use it for a small duet/trio thing I've got going.

A lot of fun. I play these drum tracks through a practice amp while I play through another amp with a looper effect pedal. Great way to practice!

Drum Beats. Really fun and the sounds are great!! Thx

Great App!. Wow! This is going to be a great practise tool! Very high quality sounds and natural drum sounds! Would like to see a way to set metronome settings to specific numbers not just in fives. Tried the tap feature but it didn't work for me, however I've only been in the app for a few mins so maybe I just haven't figured it out yet. Great work on this app though. Highly recommended!

Musicien (Tlydenr). Serait très pratique s'il y avait l'option 'Bluetooth' pour pouvoir utiliser le IK Multimedia Blueboard avec l'application pour les prestations musicales LIVE !!!...Aussi, des variations de tempo seraient un très grand atout....

Subscription turn off. Willing to live with paying more after an app has delivered value, or if it’s free, but after paying for this app and then very first thing you’re hit with is a request to subscribe (PAY), it’s a very big turn off.

Perfect!. I use it as a drum machine when I practice and it's perfect!

Love it !. Always using it ! Good jam all the time !

Guitarist. Use for practicing a lot. I like it.

Love it. Very versatile, only bug is the 5 increments between bpm

Good. Great for a totally dead start. But can never be as good as a real drummer to make a song beat to fit the song perfectly.

Harp Tooter. Where have you been all my life?

I’ll use it all the time.. It was good but counted tempo by 5s. Updated version counts up or down by 1s. Now it’s great.

Great for me. I've been using the Rhythm and Timing section exclusively in the classroom for my student to play along with when working on exercises in straight or swing. Really enjoying the app.

Better Then a Metronome. If you like it simple, this is your animal. Tons of great beats to choose from out of the box. Get a couple of the expansion packs and your totally covered.

Tres bien !!!. Excellent pour pratiquer très bien fait en fonctionne sans problème !!! Je le recommande 🤘🏻

Great app. Great way to get the beat into your fingers!

LOVE THIS APP!!. I take it with me to the music store every time I go. If I'm trying out a new bass or guitar, it helps me really test the playability of the instrument at any tempo. Plus it's cool to jam with a tight drummer in front of a store full of people without overwhelming them with the live drums. LOVE IT!! Thanks guys, keep up the good work.

amazing!!!!. I teach drumming.... place my students on a slow tempo while learning the beat... and gradually increase the speed till perfect!..... simply love it...!!❤️❤️❤️

Excellent!!!!. Lots of beats Easy to use Helpful with writing Very very good!!!

Five Star Plus. All Ninebuzz apps are great for practicing and Jamming along to . I hope you bring out some more backing tracks 👍👍👍👍👍

Great app!!. It is just great app. If it is able to control tempo more, it will just a perfect. It can control only 5 up or down. But I use between that new number. 67, 72, 88, 102 Like that. But it is just my hope. I love this app. Thanks so much.

Tempo select enabled!. Changed my review to 5 stars because this is a great sounding drum machine with a wide selection of beats and styles. Well worth the money, these are good enough to be used in professional recordings. Now with the fine tempo select its no problem finding the exact tempo needed for your song! Well done!

Very Disappointing!. Save your money. Obviously all reviews were written by the company itself perhaps. Not that many more beats than the free version, next to no fills. No way anyone ever plays live with this app as they claim. Garbage.

Great app!. Found this app from Nathan Navarro....great purchase!

WoW!!!!!!. WoW! I love this app, it's simple and it works when you need it. I recommend it big time.....

Useful. It doesn't replace the need to practice with a metronome but it's useful when your head isn't up to having dead air during practice- by that I mean you're having trouble counting the rests in a piece. And by "you" I mean me. I use this app consistently which is more than I can say for most apps.

Guitar players best friend. This drum loop app blows every single other drum loop app off the face of DA ERTH! I've tried them all and this one inspires new riffs outta my fingers every time🤘🏻 Love it love it love it can't wait for more drum kit packs🤞🏼

Great functionality; terrible battery hog. Love the app but it sucks battery life like no other. If you use it, remember to quit it when not in use or it will drain you battery quickly. Monitor this in settings/general/battery.

SCAM. What a let down. This is a scam designed to bait you into a monthly fee. NOPE!

Too Expensive!. I used to use this app all the time when practicing but with the new layout it had gone over-the-top with features and a money grab! I gave it a one star rating and said I was done with it but received a response from Richard Belluso, Co-founder & CEO Ninebuzz, that made me reconsider. He took the time and went to great lengths in his email to explain to me why they were charging what they are, not just the features that makes them confident that their product is fairly priced relative to their competitors but also the business considerations of an app developer. You don’t often get personalized, courteous AND informative reply’s from businesses these days, which is a business practice that I am happy to pay for! I am in for the VIP package! P@

Awesome!!!!. For what you pay, you get a lot of great tracks. I'm a sloppy guitar player.(to put it mildly) this is helping me to play in time, and find new ways to play. It has helped me to refind my love for the guitar.

As good as it gets. A lot of time and effort went into this one and the results reflect it. This is an outstanding, user-friendly app that sounds like a high-priced drum machine. One of my favorite apps.

Needs Features. Great selection of beats. The popular songs folder is really cool. Unfortunately when you change the tempo for one beat you change them for all of them. You need to make a way to save them individually.

Usefull. The beats in this app are very well done and sound great. The Latin grooves are excellent and I use this app on small gigs. It comes in handy. My only complaint is that I can only change tempo five BPM at a time. Other than that, I love it.

Misleading product. I wanted a metronome to practice with that was better than a standard click. But after buying this app, it quickly became clear that 60% of the drum tracks are locked behind a paywall subscription model or would cost a one time additional fee of substantially more than what the app is listed for on the store. I will look elsewhere.

Awesome app!. I love this thing! So easy to use, I can change beats on the fly, and the only real research I have to do is listening to the wide range of beats to see which ones I want to play to next. The beat packs they sell are more than worth the price. If you're tried of learning a whole new instrument with manual drum machines; and want to just plug, play, and jam- this is the app to get. Selling my old drum machine, and recommending this to my friends.

Greatest Practice App in app store. Quality sounds, works great with bluetooth speakers. Love using with scale practice, chord progressions and as timing trainer. Also great for inspiration and getting the feel for rhythm. Don't normally suggest apps, but you got to get this one!!

I'm glad I bought this to practice with my bass. I think I've found the best tool out there to help me focus on my rhythm when I'm practicing with my bass guitar. It's also a great app to help me with improv & jamming! I love Drum Beats! I hope they keep adding beats!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️- Five More Stars. Seriously look no further. This is an amazing drum machine-App. The interface is extremely user friendly. The sound quality of the drums is spot on. (HD) Like your playing with a drummer. And for the price... 👍

Great for songwriting!. I’ve purchased all of the packs and love all of them. I love to challenge myself with new beats and it helps me to write songs in whole new ways. I recommend it to all my writing partners!

Great app.. This app is an awesome app. The drum machine and the different beats and beats of measure that you can choose our amazing great sound realistic drum sounds easy to practice guitarI highly recommend this app it's worth the five bucks

Best Metronome Ever. This is a great app. I am a music teacher and this app has helped countless students (especially those who can't count) establish a good sense of pulse and rhythmic integrity. I have also used it to supply a missing drummer for my jazz band!

Great for Bass Players!. I had put my bass down for a couple years and needed to work on my timing again. Found this gem and worth every penny. Many different styles loaded let's you mix it up and learn new ways to play. Great app!

Worth every $$$. This app is phenominal and useful on all levels. I use it as a tool with my chorus classes to add a little life to warm-up songs and patterns. The beat options are very versatile and realistic.

Better than a metronome. I could never keep my beat with a metronome. Now, with a simple drum beat, I can hear my beat. UPDATE: Continues to do its excellent job after several months.

Timing is everything.. Any musician knows how important it is to keep the beat/rhythm in any song. This will help you in your quest to be "in the pocket" think Keef, Malcom, Nile, Hetfield, Clapton..and any other genre where rhythm is king. This is the perfect app to emulate your influences and create your own style. Perfect for any musician

Must have!. Tired of electronic clicks and beeps? Of a metronome that has no sense of rhythm? Can't get funky with tic tic? Then this app is a must have! I play the blues and straight time counting just doesn't cut it. Lots of good shuffles here, at any speed. Helps you get in, and stay in, the groove!

I love this app. The thing I like about is app is the ability to play with drums when it just me with my guitar. Not only can you pick a beat, but it is easy to change the tempo is well. I use it for jamming purposes as well as a metronome:)

Great app. Sorry drummers....but I use this on live gigs and hire another musician or singer instead. Don't get me wrong, I love working "live" but every now and then it's a nice change. Make yourself more valuable and sing!

Almost perfect.... I’d totally give this 5 stars if I wasn’t forced to use it in 5 bpm increments. You are forced to have your tempo at 80 or 85 or 90 or 95… but what about 92 bpm? - You can’t do it. For song writing - I need to be more accurate than the 5 bpm increments. Other than that - I find it to be pretty awesome, but that is a pretty big problem for how I want to use it.

Simple. This app is very simple to use! I use it to accompany my ukulele. It allows you to keep rhythms you use as favorites. Doesn't over power you.

Ugh, pay $5 just to be charged monthly. The basic version is fine, but after paying $5 I didn’t expect I’d have to pay monthly to expand the drum loop selection. Really annoying. Maybe Lee looking unless you only need the basics done well.

Most useful app on my iPhone!. Honestly, I've never been as happy with a singular app than I am with this one! A must have for any guitarist, or musician, that wants to practice on the go. No more annoying metronome ticks or digital click tempos! This app is the real deal! A+++++ 👌🙌

K.I.S.S.- Keep it simple stupid. Has all the beats I need or want when I sit down to play for 10 minutes or 3 hours. Ive been using it for a few years now and never had a problem. Love it.

Great app!. Great sounds and easy to use. I wish I could save individual tempos in the "Favorites" and be able to access individual beats with midi program changes. Thank you. Keep it up.

Rip off. They charge you 3.99 for the app after loading it they tell you it is a monthly subscription based

Really takes my playing to a new level. This app was good with the basic beats, but when I added the optional beat packs it really got great. Just a few bucks more was worth it.

Awesome set. This app is by all rights the best app I've found. I lead mucus in a small church, guitar and a piano, and I'm planning on adding this as a drummer option to go along with my other mechanical drummers. There are some beats that will absolutely fill in the gaps!!

Learning tool. Great app. I use it while doing my pad work out. It’s helped me think and feel better.

Dude this app is dope!!!. It's so sick having a pocket drummer always with you, no pun intended, to be able to practice whenever wherever, especially if you're a bass player and can't just call up your drummer buddies to meet you whenever wherever. This app works great for that, I love it!!! Thanks Drum Beats!

Yes, it’s worth it.. I don’t normally write reviews, but I felt compelled to clear up some of the confusion around this app. Basically what your getting for $4.95 is a free sample and an option to buy the full version for $3.49 a month, or $25 for a lifetime subscription. I’m a beginner and the drum beats are fine for my use. Perhaps a more seasoned player would want a higher grade drum machine??? IDK... I’m not even sure how a real drum machine sounds. Basically, don’t spend $4.95 unless your willing to pay the $25 a year, or $3.95 per month. Yes, it’s kind of shady

Perfect for teaching and practicing. I love this app! I wish there were more rhythms in 3/4 and odd time signatures but in general I love the 100+ genres to practice with. I use it both for practicing and teaching my students. Way more fun than a metronome.

Can't Beat It... Love this app. As a songwriter, I use it ALL the time. I do wish it had a tap tempo button to find tempos, but I dig all the programmed beats. They're funky enough of simple enough. Depends on my mood..

Great sounding drums, tons of rhythms. I purchased a few extra collections and they all sound great. I'm a guitar player and instructor, so these are great to have for practicing and teaching. Heck, I'd even use them when I'm out playing as well. I'd like to see more 3/4 timing beats.

Drums +. Love this app. I use it for temp work with my students as well as for my practice. It has not crashed in the two years since I purchased.

Excellent app. Way more musical than practicing with a click. The beats sound great. Hope more variety of beats becomes available. Thank you for an excellent app

Great sound when recorded. I used several of the best loops on my Tascam 2488 and threw in a little eq and reverb and man what a sound. Great stuff, just wish there were entire song loops with changes

Clear and simple. I find this app effective and easy. Also much easier to work with than a standard click of a metronome.

Fun Practice Sessions !. This app makes practice time very enjoyable! With a wide selection of beats and grooves, which can be played at at slow to fast tempos, and quality sounds- feels like playing with a drummer.

Great app.. Great little app for practicing and music ideas. Often I change tempo or beat and find idea for new song or new music. It's simple and easy to use and in simplicity is this app strength.

Bug that damages battery life. When this application is open, the speakers are constantly humming. Even when it is open on the background. The hum is incredibly quiet, but you can hear it when you put the speaker of the phone to your ear. My battery life has been decreasing for the past couple months and I had no idea why. I'm incredibly disappointed by this!

Drumbeats+ is a musician's friend!. I really love this app for practicing and using as a reference for songwriting and arranging. It's easy to use, but it's full of great features. Highly recommended for all types of musicians!

Totally hooked already. Only had this for a few days, and it's already worth every penny. The preset beats have been great as jam tracks for me, regardless of the style I feel like playing. The kits are highly varied and sound real. Thx

No longer works with iPad. Doesn't work any more on my iPad Air 2. It cuts in and out and is no longer usable even after reinstalling.

Practicing. I play tenor and bass trombone. I use this app when studying a chart in working out rhythms and tricky parts without my horn as well as playing. This app works well for me and I recommend it.

More than I imagined. There are so many drum beats I am always hitting the dice just to get something new. One request: I would love a function to tap and get a tempo. I have to guess and check or go to a different metronome currently to find a good tempo.

Quick simple easy. This app is perfect for finding a quick beat when that right chord progression comes along out of nowhere. Open app, find tempo, pick from a huge number of beats.

Solid. There's just something great and inspiring about playing to a good solid beat. It makes you a better player

Good stuff. Way more fun than a metronome. It makes the process of mastering difficult passages so much more engaging. Start slow, build speed and accuracy. In addition to any other uses, this is a must have practice tool.

Awesome app. This app is amazing even my drum teacher uses it during our lesson. It is really helpful for those of us who have trouble finding the beat. Great job!!!
