    Great Job !
    From begginer to Advance pretty much all is covered here: Rudiments, Drum Beats, technique and more. I recommend it to anyone looking to improve their skills and to add vocabulary to their playing. Show more

    Virtual Bassist
    This app (for what it's worth) is pretty darn awesome. It has all sorts of materials to help you practice. Want to slow down the songs to your liking? Sure. Don't like a metronome in the background? Turn it off. Want to learn some basic jazz drumming? No problem. And my finally, my favorite, a virtual bassist you can jam along to. Get this app! Show more

    Must have for drummers
    Purchased this app a couple months ago and it has enabled me to learn some of the beats that have intimidated me for years. It doesn’t get any easier than this. This app allows you to separate each individual limb so you can hear exactly what each hand and foot plays. This enables you to gain your independence one step at a time. If you can’t learn from this app then all I can say is you might wanna consider selling your drums and buying a cowbell. Great job on this app. Show more

    good but needs a little work.
    The red sync line does not always stay with the audio. It is good that you can disable it but would be nice if it worked properly. The material is well organized and is a great learning tool. It also would be desirable for me to see some linear concepts and the addition of a cowbell especially in the latin grooves ! All in all an exellant app for the bucks. Show more

    A great way to practice!
    I love this! My practice has come a long way since I started using this app. I can't afford regular lessons, and this is the perfect visual and audio companion tool. There are a ton of exercises with many options, and also lots of grooves. I love that you can separate the limbs to really learn the groove properly. The great thing also is that the app is regularly updated with more content, so it's a really expanding and fresh resource. DEFINITLEY worth the money! Show more

    Finally a great drum app!!
    This is truly an amazing source of information directly from the hands of an outstanding musician. Frank's deep knowledge and musicality comes trough in every example of the app. The sound is crystal clear and the notation is accurate and relevant in every case. Tons of variations, rhythms and styles! I just need to get down to the basement and start practicing!!! Show more

    This app is a must!
    Finally an app that has all the different styles together! I'm studying music and it is extremely helpful to practice the grooves with it! I highly recommend it to every musician! So much to practice! :) Show more

    Fantastic!!!
    I love this app. I can spend horus playing along the grooves and then turn off everything and play with the bass track. So much more fun and rewarding then practicing by myself. There is such a variety of grooves that I have material for the next 5 years! Show more

    Good but could be much better.. WAITING FOR AN UPDATE….
    This is full of great rhythms when using the midi loops but as for brushes.. they dont specify how to read when hes tapping with the brush compared to brushing with the brush (it doesnt say anything about brushesin the help window?!). Also the sound coming from the drums in the video is horrible.. and when you play the samba brush part at half speed the part the guy in the video is playing is NOT the same as when you slow down the midi file of the same beat. The drummer in the video doesn't even have a swish in pitch to his brush playing like the midi track. come on drum school.. that drummer has less feel than the midi loop! Im of course only talking about what needs to be improved and about stuff in brazilian but they're real problems that sound AWFUL. The whole thing should work with recording programs like garageband logic protools and everything else. I should be able to click and drag the beat into a recording program and practice side-by-side with the midi loop at whatever speed i choose, using any VST sound banks i want like ez drummer or whatever. and these are just the obvious feature that should be there.. UPDATE IT Show more
