Ratings and Reviews
An evolving & tweakable drum app
The primary selling points for Soft Drummer are the sounds, and the styles.
The sounds are suited for accompanying acoustic music, roots music, modern indie, blues, ballads, etc. the tones and textures coming from brushes, rods and mallets.
These styles are usually under-represented, and there are a variety of preprogrammed patterns with enough nuance and sophistication to sound like professional performances.
Parts can be altered, sequenced and arranged into song form, with changes in dynamics and improvisation; useful for keeping the accompaniment behind solos spontaneous.
Some of the options are hidden behind cryptic symbols, and there will be a learning curve, but the feature set outstrips sample loops, coming closer to working with a session drummer than a rigid drum machine.
Good but a couple of things need to be fixed
The mixer settings do not get saved with the groove, are non-savable and worst of all reset each time the app is shut down. Sounds great with Quantiloop but tempo changes are not effective until you stop and then restart the rhythm track.
Great Sounding Drums
This is by far the most realistic drum app on the App Store and by that I mean it has the most human feel. Despite being a bit unintuitive it’s more so than Drum Perfect Pro, and the update to allow export of audio stems is just brilliant which means I can use it in my fav daw Auria. If you like realistic sounding drums (and brushes in particular) then you should try this!
