Technical notes:
• The newer your device, the more responsive the sounds will be.
• Turn your silent mode off to hear the sounds.
• Don't expect to be able to play everything you play in real life right away (it takes some practice to build your finger chops).
• Finally, don't use real drumsticks on your device... you'll crack your screen and your friends will point and laugh at you! Let's try not to make this the bad, 1985. :)

Ratings and Reviews
Ranges and pro version
I really enjoyed this app and I was mostly pleased with everything on it, except... I would love to have the option to be able to change the ranges on the tenors for different sounds, or maybe to change from concert to marching tenors, there are some songs that would sound better with different pitches on the drums. Thank you for your time and please add this feature. I will change to 5 stars once this is done.
Developer Response ,
Thanks for the feedback and the review. I've heard adding the ability to change ranges a few times now. I think it's a great idea. I think it'd require me to get drums back into the recording studio, so I'll need to look into that. As for concert tenors that again would require studio time and might be best a different app. Thanks for the feedback and I'll keep you posted!
Not the best
I love the idea of this app and how innovative it is. It would get 2 stars if cymbals didn’t work or if it wasn’t innovative. This game tends to have many bugs and is overall unfinished. For the tenor drums, they work decently fine, just a little slow. I’d also advise you turn off rims for the tenors. Snare is kind of all over the place. Sometimes it doesn’t respond to hits and when you do tap it in a certain place it usually picks it up as a different hit. The chops mode does work though, just a bit slow. The basses probably work best apart from cymbals. They again don’t really cooperate and the tuning is kind of out of wack. There is an option to play just one individual bass which works quite well. I again, advise you to turn off rims for basses.
Cymbals respond perfectly and are pretty fun if you ask me. Memory game is the worst one though. It’s stupidly funny how any time you tap the drum it either is super delayed or it doesn’t pick it up that you played that spot and plays a different one. It just needs a lot of fixing and needs to be finished. As cheap as I sound, it’s definitely not worth the $2 it costs. It it stays like this it needs to be free.
I hope someone reads this and fixes this game cause I’d love it if it wasn’t so bugged out.
2 Main Problems
It’s a useful app for when i need to check what other’s play or check it to see how it lines up with my music.
The problems are that where i touch on the drum does not correspond to where it’s being played (for instance i hot the center of the drum but registers as a rim click). The other problem is that it is a bit slow, but that isn’t as much of a big deal as the other one. I also don't exactly know how to do buzzes on the snare or tenors and there seems to be no control of dynamics.
Suggestions: The UI also seems out of date and should maybe get a more modern and solid colored background instead of a gradient shadowy background. The app icon I do quite like actually and that should never change.
