Velocipede808, Great within its limitations revised review If you are new to drum pattern programming, this is really hard to beat (pu-pu-pun not intended). If a rhythm pops into my head in the middle of work, this is that app I launch rather than Ableton Live or GarageBand. If I am in my living room, I launch the iPad version, out and about, the iPhone version.
It’s intuitive with enough advanced features to tweak away for hours. I highly recommend it, but it really needs to have an AU version (on Mac and iOS) for it to play well with other apps and be integrated into my music making process. (I originally also wrote, 'Project files should be transferable between the Mac and iOS versions.” However, I finally found that this feature also exists in the iPhone version where it is located hidden behind the Song Load button rather than with the other export options.).

Shponglizer, Editors Choice??? There is no way should this app be an Editors Choice. It’s clunky, unresponsive, and clearly unoptimized. I wanted to use this app to trigger a physical drum machive via midi, but the midi setup panel does not work at all.
It’s confusingly setup as if it’s a midi router. Why is it a midi router? This midi setup panel does not remember any settings and it doesn’t let you change any of the setting either. I have around 20 midi inputs and outputs, and when I press the “Refresh” button it goes through your various midi inputs and outputs and assigns one of them (Randomly?) to all 5 of the routing fields.
In my case, this is a midi port in the middle of a midi interface that has 8 inputs and outputs. The app does not display the correct port name, and there is no way to change these fields to other midi inputs or outputs. This app should only have one midi input port that it accepts input from, and one midi ouput port that it sends output to, and those should be selectable, and the app should remember the chosen settings.

B'bba, Useful sounds, quick to make standard grooves & chain patterns DM1 has an impressive collection of sounds. It is easy to make fun grooves in standard time-signatures. Though the app shows 6/8, 9/8 and 12/8 as options, it does not treat the dotted quarter-note as a beat (which is standard). So it is basically just truncating the pattern length with no actual triplets. This is a considerable oversite since you might like to have a groove with actual triplets in it. It’s not a deal breaker, it is just a “fake” feature that requires you to do some work-arounds.
All they would need to do is scale the step to beat/tempo ratio from 4:1 to 3:1. I’ve mentioned this to the developer but gotten no response about it. Would love to see this app evolve into a more rhythmically versatile machine. For example, would love to see beats be able to be divided (per track, per beat) a la iOS’s Molten.
