Description
Ever wanted to play the drums? This is the closest you can get without a real kit. This is a fun app for drummers and non-drummers alike. Impress your friends with your chops, or play along to songs from your iPod Library. ★ NOTE: Vanishing Acoustic/Classic Theme will be fixed shortly ★
Record while playing along to songs, creating your own drum track and adding fills. Layer tracks on top of each other to make some crazy beats. Come on, you know every song can be made better with more ride cymbal.
"If you are a drummer or constantly tapping on things, you may really enjoy this app" -Ars Technica
"You know those beats you have always found to be missing in your favorite song? Well, you can make it happen now" – Katie Gatto, bestappleapps.com

HOW TO RECORD:
♬ Tap the info button on the bottom right
♬ Tap the record and play a beat. Tap the stop button when done and give your track a name.
♬ You can play on top of a track while it's playing for multi-track recording
♬ Use the metronome and count-in for easier recording
HOW TO PLAY ROLLS:
You can now slide your fingers across Drum Kit to play rolls. Turn on rolls in Settings and change the BPM (beats per minute) to fine tune your rolls. Try sliding in a circle around toms and snare for instance.

Customer Reviews
Waste
Waste of money... 2 & 3 tom tones are backwards, unless you setup that way. (I've seen it)
Couldn't get it to roll, or play with iphone songs. The sounds are not great either.
Then you have to pay more to play the other two kits!
I want my money back... :-(
Met is ok I guess
don't bother
as a drummer myself this is liking playing the drums in a vat of molasses as the reaction to touch is way too slow to simulate playing drums
not worth it
Ok, here's the skinny: Sounds are just ok. Major latency. This app will not keep up with even slow drumming. Very frustrating.
