For parents of young musicians

Practice they actually want to do

A timing game to play together and beat each other's score, real drums to play along to, and fifteen minutes of practice that feel like playing.

Try it, then hand it over

Can you keep the beat when the click stops?

My own kids played this again and again. Three tries, the best counts, and a score you can send to each other.

What one parent sent me
From a parent

He didn't want to stop practising

The mother of one of my students, a 14-year-old drummer, sent me this. I hadn't asked for it.

Your app is absolutely phenomenal. He thought it was so much fun to practise with: Shift, sextuplets and more, with both the Tempo Trainer and Inner Pulse. He finds it really motivating. He was almost (only almost) sad to go on a school trip, because it meant he couldn't practise drums.

Grooves that sound like a real drummer

Recorded hit by hit in a real studio, at any tempo. Kids who play guitar, bass or piano get a drummer to play with; kids who play drums get grooves to learn.

Fifteen focused minutes, planned for them

A routine is the practice, in order: each step a tool, a tempo and a length. They press Run and it plays itself, step after step.

One press, and it plays itself

Until then, the Practice Timer counts the bars or minutes for them, and stops them when they get there.

Who made it

Tested on my own kids first

My son tried to break it at 300 BPM in 32nd notes, and it kept playing. My daughter had opinions about every screen, and she was usually right. Then my students got it.
