L’app est vraiment très bien faite et correspond à mon besoin : noter des patterns lorsque j’ai un idée. Il est dommage que l’app soit aussi chère en abonnement et qu’il n’y ait pas la possibilité de l’acheter une fois pour toute.

This app allows you to quickly create beats and save notation. The app is easy to use with several options to choose from no matter your style.

Beste App zum Notieren von Drum-Notationen. An einigen Stellen ist durch späteres Hinzufügen von bisher fehlenden Features noch Verbesserungspotential. Der/die Entwickler verbessern/erweitern die App aber stetig. Sehr coole Sache insgesamt.

The app, with its current set of features, should not be subscription-based, especially at such a high price. There is no synchronization between devices, no web version, and no native apps for Mac or Windows. At the moment, it’s just a beat editor for a single device.

Sehr gute App, eine Anregung hätte ich da, gejammert auf hohem Niveau, schön wäre es noch Texte bzw. Notizen zu den Notationen einfügen zu können. LG von Thomas

This app is for drummers and made by drummers which is unique compared to others I researched. The thought that went into it shows. The ability to hear how a groove is ‘supposed’ to sound was game-changing and eye-opening. I can read music and drum notation just fine but the audio component here was a missing link for me. I use this app to write my own grooves per the song needs and per my ability (versus slavishly trying to replicate the pro drummer on are a recording..:). practicing w the app lets me methodically add complexity if I cleanly handle the simplified groove that I entered. I also use the beats as an in-ear click track (but it is my beats, not clicks) when rehearsing with the band. My bandmates have remarked how much steadier I sound. So many applications of this amazing app. One more: if you are the type that gets distracted by standard click-clicks of metronome (i do) this app is for you! My only beef is I wish the developer would make more youtubes and turn the blog into videos.

Derek has built a piece of software that is easy to use and offers huge amounts of functionality. I have been looking for an app just like this since using a web based app that was good but very limited. Beat Note allows me to put together teaching material quickly and efficiently and I am excited to see how the app develops as I can see the roadmap is extensive and covers some absolutely game changing additions for the future. This is now my go to option for building content for my students. Well done Derek and thanks for such an elegant solution to what has historically been an overly complicated process!

Definitely worth downloading. The free version works like a charm and the paid version is one the best investments you can make for your drumming. It makes music theory and notations intuitive. I love it!!

Sehr gut umgesetzt, aber Preisvorstellung ist jenseits von Gute und Böse. Für 20€ würde ich die App kaufen (ohne Abo) aber 70€/Jahr? Da kaufe ich lieber eine DAW…

Thanks for using Drum Notation by Beat Note! Version 5.0 marks a huge milestone. One of the most requested features from the Beat Note community and content creators across social platforms is finally here: Animated Video Notation Export. WHY THIS MATTERS Creating animated notation videos used to require hours of manual work across multiple professional programs, each with steep learning curves and expensive licenses. You’d need video editing software, screen recording tools, and notation programs, spending half a day (or more) on what should be a simple task. Beat Note’s new Video Creator brings all of that power into a single, intuitive workflow on your phone or tablet. What once took hours now takes minutes. What once cost hundreds in software licenses is now accessible through a single subscription at a fraction of the price. Focus on your creativity, not your software. NEW: VIDEO CREATOR Export your notation as animated MP4 videos with professional polish: • Export quality: 720p, 1080p, or 4K resolution • Flexible framing: Portrait (Instagram, TikTok, YouTube Shorts) or landscape (YouTube, Vimeo) • Smart layouts: Control measures per row/column. Notation animates measure-by-measure automatically. • Customizable design: Adjust notation size, padding, and spacing to fit your style or social templates • Three color themes: Black-on-white, white-on-black (dark mode), or Beat Note’s signature white-on-navy • Live preview: See exactly how your video will look before exporting, including sample backgrounds • Playback control: Set tempo and loop count • Measure selection: Export only the sections you need One tap creates your video, ready to save and sync with your performance footage. Professional. Fast. Wherever you need it. This furthers Beat Note’s “Create once, export everywhere” philosophy. Now you can export Audio, Image, PDF, Link, and Video, all from the app you already use. SUBSCRIPTION UPDATE The Video Creator is available in the new Creator tier. All existing Pro subscribers are now on the Educator tier and keep full access to all previous Pro features. Your access remains the same as before. WHAT’S NEXT This is just the beginning. We have exciting enhancements already planned and can’t wait to hear your ideas. Check the roadmap in Settings to vote on features and see what’s coming. As always, this update includes bug fixes and performance improvements. Have feedback? Tap Settings → Email Derek. I’d love to hear from you!
