Description

Rhythm Lab 4.0 is the best rhythm trainer and rhythm tool for the iPad!

New! On-screen keyboard. Play and improvise tunes and chords without being restricted to single tap notes. Integrates seamlessly with any external MIDI keyboard.

Simple. Test, Playback, Metronome, Loop, and Audio controls are easy to access on the main screen.

Flexible. Use Rhythm Lab to improve rhythmic accuracy, listen to new rhythms, create, copy, and import new rhythms, export rhythms, create rhythm worksheets, group rhythms into custom sets, and more! Use the iPad tap buttons or an external MIDI device to practice and test your accuracy. Many user features are highly customizable. Teachers can create customized student groups and import or export student results. Compatible with Audiobus 3.0 for expanded sound and recording possibilities.

Comprehensive. Rhythm Lab patterns are not limited to single patterns, but also include double patterns, drum patterns (left/right snare exercises), or three-part drumkit patterns (hi hat, snare, kick). Patterns can range from very simple, such as whole notes, half notes, quarter notes in simple meters, to very complex - with nested tuplets, mixed and irregular time signatures. Rhythm Lab also allows incomplete (pick-up) measures.

Worksheets. The worksheet feature is great for teachers who want to create printable, customized worksheets for students. You have the option of hiding time signatures and barlines, and including open space within measures.

Files. Rhythm Lab allows you to import or export patterns and users in JSON format, a standard data format. Worksheets can be exported in PDF format. Individual rhythm patterns can be imported from MusicXML files. Soundfonts can be imported in .sf2 format.

Documentation. Help documentation is now web-based, and will continue to expand to include video tutorials, FAQs and other documentation as needed.

What’s New

Version 4.4.3

A few bug fixes:
1. Prevent audio from running in background when app audio is not playing.
2. Prevent note spacers in custom patterns from becoming too small when rhythm spacing is crowded.

Helping me with sightreading

This is a seriously wonderful app. I am using it to improve my sightreading, by isolating the rhythm component. The work that has gone into this is incredible. There are a range of different levels, patterns and styles, for one and two hands. Most valuable resource I've come across.

Agree with the previous reviewer – I hardly ever write reviews, but feel compelled to write one for this, because it's great!

Looking forward to future apps from this developer – his website has some great resources, too.

Great practice tool for finger drummers

Although the original purpose for this app was probably for pianists it now has sections for tapping rhythms using a snare, hi-hat and kick drums as well as snare drum rudiments. I've been looking for something like this for a while to improve my timing for drumming with fingers on the iPad, though it would be useful for any finger drumming hardware. Very useful app, 4 stars (as there's always room for improvement :) )

This is an excellent little app for developing rhythm skills. It has many examples from very easy to very advanced rhythms.

I find that my students are happy to work at perfecting the exercises as they can see for themselves where they go wrong and they strive to gain 100%.

There are still some bugs to be fixed in this app. For example, it closes itself down for no apparent reason. The tempo setting changes by itself even though I set a default tempo and sometimes the sound turns off.

If these problems can be solved, I would be more than happy to recommend this app to students and teachers.
