Best Learning Tool for Drumming
Graysen C.
This is hands down the best and most extensive app made for drumming. It is extremely easy to navigate and shows you how to play any groove! It also has rudiment exercises and songs.

I find this app to be both useful and extremely user friendly. I have had it on my iPhone and iPad, never a single tech issue. The app allows you to see hands and feet at the same time. I'm a beginner and it is really helping me to improve.
Great So Far!

So far it's been great... I'm actually learning to have my limbs separate from its unison ways. All I would recommend is more stuff for beginners.
Great Start

This is the best app for drum practising, which is not to say it's perfect. There are lots of bugs to fix yet - for example, if you try to slow down the movies to play along at an easy tempo, you'll get a kind of weird "double soundtrack" that sounds awful. But bugs get fixed in time. I'll wait for the fixes. As for the practice section, we need accented rudiments, rudiments including toms, fills and chops. Again, this is a great app, and allows me to practice with a small pad anywhere - lately i've come to almost enjoy traffic jams! Keep working at it!
Sometimes things work out right!!!

Worth the money I'm a bassist and I've always wanted to learn to play drums so I can improve my drum programming this program is great for a novice like me!
Awesome

I spent five years in private lessons to learn all of this. I feel this is a pretty complete package of the basics. This is good for any beginner or advanced (to review) many basics grooves. I did not expect this to be as good as it is. Exceeded my expectations. Some nice features which will definitely aid in learning and break down the rhythms into parts. Thank you for this app. :@)
Incredible!!!

As a bass player and drummer I've learned so much from this app. I even stole some of the cool bass lines included with the drums grooves. Also, thanks for the continuous updates. Keep up the good work!
