8 of 15The app used to work pre-12.2, but now it says it will use an older version which crashes the system. I shouldn’t have to update my phone just to use your app when it worked perfectly fine before. And I’m not jailbroken so it’s not that. I’m on 12.1.4. And before I had to restore my phone to its current firmware, DM1 ran fine. Now, nothing. And that’s a shame because I paid for all the extras and now I have to pay for it again for my iPad mini 5. iMPC never gave me these problems. But when this app worked, I used it 20x more than the Akai app.
The developers did not resize the app for the iPhone 12. Many of the buttons are off screen with no way to get to them. Typically they check functionality on all platforms before releasing. Fail.
Please make the update to resize this app 🙏🙏🙏. It’s literally the best drum app out there, without question.
First off - dug this app, it’s so much fun. The iPad version looks identical to this iPhone app, but you have to pay $4.99 for it? Why not just install the iPhone version on an iPad?
I love this app and have used it for many years. I have DM2 on my ipad and I am always wondering why they don’t bring it to iPhone!? Also, if it ever is brought to iPhone, I don’t want this version to be discontinued, I want both versions on my phone! I never use DM2 simply because I rarely have my iPad with me, but I ALWAYS have my phone. Please bring a version of DM2 to the iPhone! <3
stooped working just get black screen so sound no visuals.
Anyway to have it ableton compatible. Through link or anything
I’ve used this app for 4-5 years now. You don’t use something that long if it’s not good. Like other drum machines you do have to play with in certain boundaries, but this app is limitless compared to all other apps. Is straight forward and easy to use. No cartoon colors or in app purchases every time you open up the app. First off you have every type drum kit imaginable. From dub bass to Led Zeppelin type kits. I believe it’s a 100+ kits. Then you can pick your favorite pieces from any kit to create a custom kit. All perimeters are tweekable. Level, pitch, length, pan and you can even reverse any piece of the kit. Once you have your kit, I usually play in the boundaries of the 32 step model. Placing kick drums, snare and high hats in place to help start the beat I’m going for. By placing the snare in different spaces of your beat,allows you to change tempos during your song. Granted these tempo changes between beats are stricked to a 1/2 time up or 1/2 time down of your selected song tempo. After I have your intro, verse, chorus, bridge and alternates of those beats completed, you can build your song up in the apps SUPER EASY to use sequencer. This sequencer is honestly the best out of all the other drum machine apps out there. Once you have your song, you can adjust the tempo, and swig, plus add delay, reverb,compression and other effects to your song that you can adjust in real time with easy sliders. I could go on for hours on how much you can do with this app. Just know that if your a guitarist/bass/keyboard player and have no drumming skills, this app allows you to easily create drum tracks that you can call your own. It gives you an authenticity of creation that pre programmed drum loops will never have. Even better, the sound quality is studio worthy in comparison. If your like me and can’t afford the over priced drum software out there, this is next best thing(in my opinion).
