Great sound and UI. All controls are active during playback. Nice big buttons for intro/ending and fill in, which allows you to use this app as a real drummer friend. The only problem is that it does not work on my HTC Sensation, there is no sound. I hope this will be fixed! I also bought this app for my tablet, and it works fine on the tablet.

Great features. Sound is good, especially with limiter enabled. Works perfect on my S2.

I have used many hardware drum machines to jam along to over the years and this is by far the easiest and best to use. The sounds are great too. It would be great if you quicky could change kits for a given pattern (e.g. play a ballad pattern with an 808 kit) or perhaps I am missing something obvious?

Pretty good how can record it or save it? I wanna import into my 4 track program on nexus 7 also how could import a guitar lick or into drummers friend?where's the help section or user Manuel? Besides awesome program:-) Where's the user Manuel? How can import a guitar sample to make a beat over? Or how can export the beat to another program I have the jt40 4 track app for nexus 7and I wanna import so I can add to a song I made? That would be a great feature:> but besides awesome favorite beat maker and drum machine👍📌

I don't know if this app will stay in my usual Live Worship kit, but it sure has got me out of a tight spot cheap. What's missing to make this really work? Set lists, maybe even integrate a selection wheel into live mode for easy tempo changes.

I could find only 2 drum machines with preset rhythms. This was the better of the 2. It is quite good with the intro/ending and the fill-ins. There are a limited rhythm patterns, hope that updated will include more patterns, especially hoping for a salsa pattern and more swing patterns. It is user friendly too. Overall, I am pleased with this.
