Rudiment Pro teaches the 40 Essential International Drum Rudiments allowing you to hear the correct performance of the rudiment, learn the notation for each, perform the rudiment on a drum, practice pad or table top and to receive a rating on the accuracy of your performance.
In playback mode, you may select the rudiment and tempo and listen to the proper rudiment sound, while the animated notation view indicates how each stroke is to be played.
In performance mode, you may perform and record any rudiment with drum sticks on a snare drum, practice pad, table top etc. at a tempo of your choice. Rudiments Pro rates your performance in real time and lets you make adjustments accordingly.
You may also record, playback as well as save or share the recording of your performance by email.
Recommended Devices
This app uses an advanced beat detection algorithm which is CPU intensive. Its highly recommended that an iPhone 4 or iPad 2 or later devices be used.
Because the iPad 2 has a non-retina display, to display properly the app should be run in 2x mode.
Latest reviews of Rudiment Pro app for iPhone and iPad
This is a cool little app to help keep your rudiments sharp. I thought I was perfect accurate with the metronome, but this app grades you while you play. I started to notice the places where I was actually cheeping the rudiment. This app will keep you honest!! Might start turning my drum students on to this one. It sort of makes a game out of practicing your rudiments and its addicting!
This app actually lets you record yourself playing and thats going to help me a lot. Awesome!
This is the only drum app Ive seen that lets you see and hear the rudiment being played, perform/record and have your performance rated for accuracy. Im a beginning drummer and this will really help. Love the choice of metronome sounds-love the cowbell.
I have a couple of drum and rudiment apps on my iPhone but this one is the best that Ive found. The ability to record your playing and have the app rate your playing at the same time is really great. I use the sharing function to send a recording of my playing to my drum teacher.....at least he knows Im practicing!
Great app if the rudiment that you were playing would leave the screen after youve picked out the next rudiment you want to practice.
