Impaktor is a drum synthesizer with a vast sonic palette, that turns any surface into a playable percussion instrument.
You just slap your desk like you would a real drum. The real acoustical impulses from the built-in microphone are used as an excitation source for advanced sound modules that simulates behavior of membranes, cymbals, metallophones or strings. This makes Impaktor a highly responsive and expressive instrument.
With semi-modular architecture and several types of synthesis, Impaktor can produce a wide range of tones, from acoustic, like Tabla, Djembe, Marimba, Cymbals, Metal bars to electronic or industrial sounds.
Enjoy the most realistic virtual drumming experience available for mobile devices!
* Works with iPhone 4, 4S, 5, 5S, 5C, iPod Touch 4th gen and all iPads
* The app requires headphones. Works best with headphones without built-in microphone.

Completely addictive and surprisingly useful in real world music making!
Fantastic live drum instrument

Impaktor is one of my favorite iPad instruments! From the look and feel of the interface to the quality of sound output to the fast response from the developers...this is a fantastic value for the buck! I had an issue with the mic after the iOS 7 update. Access to the mic became disabled for Impaktor after the upgrade, but was easily remedied in the iPad settings. All is right in the world.
Incredible little app

Amazing app that is an incredibly easy way for drummers and non-drummers alike to create beats to be used in recordings or live performance. Audiobus and another app like Loopy HD makes this incredible as a live performance tool.
This is fantastic

I have to say this is one of the best app ideas I've ever came across. While it definitely benefits from a quiet surrounding, that can be made up with one of those fancy contact pickups. But it's EXTREMELY expressive. Hip hop to jazz to dance to pop, hell, I could probably even do some metal or rock with this thing. It's really really really well thought out. Thank you to the DEV.

This was a revolution then and remains a jaw dropper to those I show who never seen! especially drummers and percussionists. It's so nice that the responsiveness is so tight that you can do perfect flams and soft roll fills AND THEY SOUND SWEET. and you can do these and many other drum techniques on a ton of built in sounds and can make nearly any sound you wanna beat on. Recently I've discovered that just tapping on my bed mattress with a drum stick or embarrassingly a couple of no. 5 macramé needles' fat ends! Sounds nutty but sitting there watching Notflix sometimes I just play flam para diddles or make beats finding the bassy part of the mattress and the more snare part so I brought impaktor into this (right into the middle...) and the bouncy mattress just was perfect for great snare rolls and drop stick dddoopdat doodat type 4th bar snare fills and rhythms. Fantastic and like nothing else. This was one of the first music apps I ever bought and I still love it very much. Thank you for bringing it life it is a masterpiece !
Closest to real

I play percussion and this is by far the closest I have come to an analog drumming experience. And immensely satisfying.
Like owning a Korg Wavedrum!

This app is brilliant! It is like owning a Korg Wavedrum for a fraction of the price. Synth engine is very deep! I use an iRig interface to plugin a contact mic (attached to a drum pad) into my iPhone for live performance. This eliminated the crowd noise substantially from triggering the app's synth engine because you bypass the iPhone mic. There are probably even better work arounds for live use. Just a fantastic app!
