MODERN DRUMMER MAGAZINE (October 2015 issue - review of the iOS version): “This is a must-have for anyone wanting an encyclopedia of world percussion rhythms at their fingertips.” PercussionTutor is an educational app for dedicated world percussion enthusiasts. The app and its free creative commons licensed companion book feature a unique library of world rhythms and instruments played by leading percussionists and drummers. A time stretching feature and a metronome give the users the option to practice at their own pace. Sheets and notes are included for all the rhythms. NO IN-APP PURCHASES! Make sure to buy the app now and get all the future content for free. We will release updates on a regular basis adding new rhythms and videos (for the iOS version we kept our promise since April 2012!). PercussionTutor will allow you to approach South American, Caribbean and West African music in a different way. This app offers you more than a simple play-along. It includes standard notation, videos (COMING NEXT ANDROID UPDATE!) and specific claves. We also took the outmost care to capture the natural feeling of all those drumming traditions. For the batá rhythms we even developed a random playback engine that will simulate an actual batá performance. This app puts you in a live playing situation - just like you learned your mother language. You will sound more natural and more alive and you will awaken to new rhythmic possibilities. It's also a great tool for other musicians, dancers and performers who want to immerse themselves into centuries-old traditional languages. FEATURES: - Over 50 rhythms (over 100 if you include include the variations and the conversations) - Rhythms from Cuba, Brazil, Puerto Rico, Peru, West Africa, ... - All drums can be turned on and off individually - audio time-stretching feature - (videos coming in a update!) - over 50 percussion instruments - Sheets and notes of all the rhythms included in the app and in the free book - MORE RHYTMS COMING: we are working on a lot more content to be released on a regular basis! FEATURED MUSICIANS: * Louis Bauzo, performed with Tito Puente, Dizzy Gillespie, Paul Simon * Greg Askew, performed with Tito Puente * Luiz Ebert * Jérôme Goldschmidt, performed with Tito Puente, M. Santamaria & Chico O’Farrill * Marcos Napa, performed with Perú N. * M.

Real good overview of the instruments. I play conga and the rithms are a bit on the simple side, however it is a good list of rithms you can explore further on the internet.

It's really good at what it says it's for. Though, it is a shame it doesn't have Cumbia or more rythmes for Dominican Republic. I'd love to hear Cumbia and bachata, as well as Merengue A Lo Maco, and many versions of one genre!

Really great app, book included very good concept in general. however some cuban patterns aren't correct..I presume that it's kind of variations... unfortunately, the flamenco section doesn't work. congratulations for this great job!

Eigentlich eine tolle App! Ich habe zunächst die 5,99 Euro Version gekauft. Dazu dann für 29,90 Euro (+MWSt) das Book. Leider sehe ich KEINE Änderung bzw. Erweiterung in der App. Zum Beispiel: keine Zugriffsmöglickeit auf die beschriebenen Videos. Auch das zugekaufte PDF-Book enthält keine Links dafür...

So weit ganz brauchbar. Sound OK, Handling sehr übersichtlich. Gute auswahl an Rhythmen, obwohl Afrika etwas unterrepräsentiert ist. Ich würde mir wünschen das mann das Metronom optisch sieht, Lichtpulsation o.ä. , ohne das Klicken. Und ich würde gerne die Uhr sehen. Gerade zum Üben hätte ich gerne einen Zeitüberblick. Ansonsten aber sehr schön gemacht.
