theDrumDictionary App Reviews

Too bad ! No jungle nor Drum n Bass beats. Only two bossa nova beats and just one samba groove. Thats a pity because this drum dictionary is a great idea, but it is quite an unbalanced app. Too many rock beats and no electro !

Well this is not exactly what I expected. The idea here is unique and could be good seller, but. There is no note chasing, no information about each beat or group of beats even. It is truely a dictionary and does not help you to learn the beat. There is no note adjustment just a simple sound and not even a drum sound. There is no speed adustment and no setting or help page. Sorry but at this stage I give it 1 and half stars. Thanks, but you owe me 3 bucks

Good idea, but really only for fresh beginners. If youve been drumming for a while dont bother. If there could at least be some more advanced beats it might be useful. As well as more information on each beat. I was excited when I saw this but really let down when I opened it up. Put in some better beats in updates and Ill forgive

I think what this app will become is what Im excited about it truely is nice to have a collection of drum techiques at your fingertips, what it really need is metronome, and lots of updates including many new style specific drum pattern ex. Rock, pop etc. But its a straight to the point dictionary of techniques its good! A drummers chord book. Keep it coming guys, looks good.as well I do find its helping me viually understand and read the music Cheers!

I love this app but it could be updated with more grooves, some sort of follow along thing lime kareokee, and some kind of user submit option would be cool.

I love this app :)

This is a great begging to what I think one day could be the perfect drumming app. This is a fantastic tool for developing, or redeveloping those essential skills. What I would like to see added or updated: 1) The ability to change the BMP on the playback of rudiments and beats. 2) more advanced beats 3) more rudiments, and suggested practice variations. Overall, this app is fantastic and bound to get better.

I play the drums for 5 years and advanced beats will be awesome... Change bpms of demos.. Have beats in other t.s. Like 7/4 or 6/8 or 9/4. And the possibility to create beats would be great too... Costly for what the app gives. I would have pay it 0.99$

This is a great useful app for almost all drummers - the variety of beats makes it easy for drummers to deviate from their normal drumming genres. I would love to see the ability to modify tempos on beats / rudiments and like to see more beats. Keep up the good work.

Like the title says - ever since I saw the iPad, having had an iPhone, I knew what program needed to be made to help me with my drumming. This app is excellent, not just good or great. I put my iPad up on the music stand, right in front of my vision, pick a beat or a rudiment, and just play to the beat. Suggestions: - Im not sure (yet) if you can change the tempo of the included beats / rudiments, but Im still playing around. - Longer beats and/or the ability to import beats (notation, tabs, etc). I cannot stress enough - this is an ---excellent--- app.

This app is a great tool and reference. I would love to be able to modify the tempo of the rudiments. Also, it would be cool if you could edit or modify the existing beats to customize and create your own. Hope to see updates soon!

Should add more beats like very easy beats into hard one . Thats the only thing great app

Has potential but the only clear sounds are the snare, cowbell and ride cymbal. Bass drum needs to be more distinctive. Prefer "Drum School" app due to more clarity in sound and visual demo.

This is an amazing app for percussionists. There is room for improvement though.

Changing tempo effects the sample audio quality a lot to the point that its better not to change tempo, not many beats available compare to the free version also you cant hear the metronome and the drums at the same time

Worth what you pay..includes all basic rudiments, rhythms with real drum sound examples. Maybe a metronome can be added..

But I swear, we need a visual marker to view playing position, ability to set tempo and of course bigger examples library!

A great app for beginner and professional drummers! Compliments! ;)

The single stroke roll reminded me of someone starting a car and not getting fuel, it is uneven with extra hit, sort of flam, accents. I didnt take enough time evaluating the free version.

This app is fantastic. Everything I expected, plus a little more. I just ask that in a future update, that you add a scroller that tells what note I am hearing while listening. Similar to playing rock band, persay. Other than that, more beats, tempo, and odd time signitures, and youve got a 6 star app!!! Keep up the good work!
