Description

"If you’re looking for a great resource to develop and maintain your beat vocabulary and rudimental proficiency, this is a great place to start." - Modern Drummer

theDrumDictionary is a great tool for drummers, band leaders, producers, or anyone looking to learn more about drums. It includes all 40 standard snare drum rudiments and over 100 full drum set beats in a variety of styles. For each example, there is notation and tempo-adjustable audio. theDrumDictionary also includes a built-in metronome, making it a great all-in-one practice tool.

For Practice:
• Make the most of your practice time with the built-in metronome
• Adjust the tempo of the example audio to help learn those tricky parts or to push your skill to the next level of speed
• Keep track of your time spent practicing each beat or rudiment

Lists:
• Create a list of your favorite beats in different styles
• Create lists for what you'd like to practice
• Drum instructors, create a separate list for each of your students

theDrumDictionary is also great for non-drummers who are interested in knowing a little about drums: band leaders who want to communicate better with their drummer, musicians who want to program realistic drum parts in their songs, and the list goes on...

Entries include
• All 40 standard snare drum rudiments
• Over 100 drum set beats in a variety of styles: Rock, Jazz, World, Funk and more

Great app!

Love the lessons, the rudiments dictionary, etc! Some great example beats with good audio to help reinforce. Wish that the audio didn’t stretch and warp so much when changing tempo tho. Other than that, it’s great.

A few suggestions but great app!

This app is a great tool and reference. I would love to be able to modify the tempo of the rudiments. Also, it would be cool if you could edit or modify the existing beats to customize and create your own. Hope to see updates soon!

First impression

Well this is not exactly what I expected. The idea here is unique and could be good seller, but. There is no note chasing, no information about each beat or group of beats even. It is truely a dictionary and does not help you to learn the beat. There is no note adjustment just a simple sound and not even a drum sound. There is no speed adustment and no setting or help page. Sorry but at this stage I give it 1 and half stars.

Thanks, but you owe me 3 bucks
