    Good sounds but problematic Midi
    I want to use this and want to like it, but using it with midi is a problem. Drums skip out and don’t play polyphonically via midi, meaning that simultaneous midi messages don’t make it through to Drum XD and it will drop sounds (is bass + tom on Cubasis 3 will only play tom) Show more

    With midi learn you can connect 2 e drum sets
    I used 2 ddrum ddti modules, a midi merger connected to my alesis iodock 2. It functions very well. Low latency, fairly easy to program midi with midi learn. However there seems to be an issue with entering manual midi notes. This app is a couple octaves off for some reason. Could be something on my end... I also haven't successfully added high hat pedals but I think I need to do something with my modules. Not sure about sample import yet hopefully it's something this app provides but the pre loaded samples aren't half bad. This is an early rating and will edit when I get everything working properly. Pretty happy so far. Pretty sweet rocking 2 different kick drums, 3 different snares, 5 toms, 2 high hat pedals (eventually) and 4 cymbals! Show more

    A waste of money!
    The drum samples are terrible quality. The Casio keyboard I had in the 80's sound better then this piece of kit.

    ABANDONWARE NO SUPPORT NO MIDI OUT
    This app is not fully functional. The midi out is inoperative and the developer has disappeared.

    Best Drum App
    Best drums app out there. I love the ability to customize the location and sound of each drum!

    Used 2 love it, now it's crap
    I had high hopes for this one, thought it had lots of promise, but now it's crap, I guess that's what happens when the developers doesn't do any updates since February of 2015 Show more

    No Dynamics, obnoxious interface
    I wanted to like Drums XD. Seemed very customizable, and boasts lots of sounds. First of all, it says that it is touch sensitive, but I didn’t find this to be true at all. Every tap, soft or hard gives you the same full-velocity sound. I also found the GUI to be irritating. Bright colors and flashing spotlights with every hit are just over the top. I wanted a more musical virtual drum playing app, but this is just more of the same thing you get from every drum-set-on-a-touchscreen app. Tried to get a refund, but that was not an option. I deleted the app and reclaimed the space- which was worth more empty than the cost of this app. Show more

    Brilliant! Great Update!
    If you play them or if you sequence them, this is what your iPad has been missing. You will not regret the purchase of this app in the slightest. Capture a live performance to your favorite MIDI sequencer, clean up any mistakes, and play it back to Drums XD, then out to your favorite "DAW" via Audiobus or AudioCopy. It is a VERY impressive drum app. The factory sounds are great. The dynamic response is superior. The GUI is stunning. Show more
