Cool

The faux leather wrap has gotta go though. And Id really like the option of viewing it in portrait mode like on the iPhone. This allows one to use both hands for drumming while holding the iPad. Then I wont have to keep downloading the iPhone version.

Good, but no triplets?

Ill be using this as a tool to create demos for my band, but seriously... You cant do triplets? My 1994 Korg had a triplet function, how can a drum machine today not offer this pretty basic function? Kinda disappointed, as that limits patterns and fills incredibly.

Simple

I like it, no triplets, which I need right now.

Triplets please

The option to purchase an instrument that powerful at that price still boggles the mind, so I hate to make demands, but indeed triplets would be nice. Also different colors for the different rows is an option that Id appreciate, as in hihat yellow, snare red, kick blue Etc..., though maybe Im alone in that.

Amazing app

Great sounding app works great with garage band. Each pad has its own mix and effects input so it opens a wide range of sounds. My main drum app

Buggy update

This latest version does not seem to be able to properly read the data from existing projects. Patterns are missing, and song arrangements are broken (every cell in the timeline is Pattern 2). There are also issues with the Load menu becoming unresponsive, and eventually going entirely blank, requiring a kill/restart. After downgrading to the previous version, everything worked as before-- no project data was actually corrupted. I had identical issues with the iPhone version, hopefully this release was an oversight and can quickly be fixed.

Thanks for the update

I can load all projects again without a problem. Previous update messed that up. Thanks for the quick update.
