Yo, Bass drummers! Got a split in your head that you've just got to hear right now? Got a line or a lick or an exercise to put down? Compose it and play along with the new Bass Line Composer App! Now you’ve got a whole bass drum line to play along with. Practice splits and interp. Write out your exercises or make up new ones. Put down that new street beat that’s been bouncing around your brain. Speed it up, slow it down, try it out, edit it, and max it out! Compose and play along with the actual bass drum sounds of the Paul Rennick 2012 Santa Clara Vanguard, as recorded by bass tech Brian Lowe - tuned the way they’ll sound on finals night. Best used with Headphones About Telephonic Amusements: Nicholas Wheeler, software engineer, marched Sky Ryders, VK, and UNT - taught at Pioneer and UNT; David Croy, designer, marched Sky Ryders and tech’ed under Paul Rennick at Sky, VK, and has provided visual consulting for UNT and Dynasty Drums.

This app is incredible.... if I had to pay for it I would. It works great, there are ample sounds to work with, and so much versatility that no matter what your composition needs are, rhythmically or otherwise, youll have a program that can get the job done. MASSIVE props to the creators of this masterpiece software.

I have been using this app for about a year and recently switched phones. I went to restore my purchases because I bought the in-app purchase where I can export through audio files and sheet music. When I went “home” all of my saved work was gone!!! I had so many cool walk on cadences and like drum licks to fill some dead time but there is no way to get all of my work back! This app is great but that one feature just kills and recently I had to delete the app AGAIN because the bass sounds weren’t coming out of my speakers at all only the metronome sound. I killed the app and restarted my phone but nothing changed. Please fix this!

that sucks. we hate to lose our work too. we store all files locally on the device. if you got a new device, you should be able to restore from a back up. we're looking at moving the files to the cloud. regarding the sounds, can you provide us more information? drumline.apps@gmail.com.

Great App, but now it Keeps Crashing

I’ve been using this app for over a year now, and it’s been a great tool for me as an instructor to help my students understand what their parts are supposed to sound like before they play them. However, after saving what I believe was my 59th or 60th file, the app crashed and it will now crash every time I open the app and tap anywhere.Is it possible for me to re-download the app and restore all of my saved files? I really love what you guys have done with the app and I would like to continue using it, any help would be greatly appreciated.

Developer Response
Oh my! Sounds like we may have found the memory limit of the app, which isn’t a good experience! We’ll do some testing to see if that’s the case and then get a fix out ASAP.

Pretty good, but really unstable

The app does let you write basslines pretty well with no creative restrictions, but several times I’ve lost entire files at random moments, and saving doesn’t help. It also:- Costs money despite not really deserving to- Doesn’t let you simply type the tempo and instead makes you use an oversensitive scroll- Has a very janky and unfriendly file management system (which, as mentioned before, also loses files randomly)- Doesn’t have a good way of getting to different parts of a song, using an uncomfortable scrolling system- Doesn’t have a very good sound for accents- Has other problems that I can’t think of off the top of my headThe app really needs to work on stabilizing itself. Get to fixing bugs please, because this app could be so great.
