Description
MODERN DRUMMER MAGAZINE (October 2015 issue):
“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 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.
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.
Damian Erskine (bassist, educator, writer for NoTreble.com):
“PercussionTutor is truly fantastic and a blast to play along with”. (full review on NoTreble.com)
Lincoln Goines (electric and acoustic bassist) writes: “This app is an engaging and informative way to check out the original funk. A great tool for musicians, dancers, and all lovers of rhythm”.
Percussive Arts Society: “The interactive application is very thorough [...]. Navigation is simple and the layout is logical and easy to grasp.”
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 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 80 rhythms (some rhythms include a basic and a more advanced version)
- Rhythms from Cuba, Brazil, Puerto Rico, Peru, West Africa, ...
- ALL drums can be turned on and off individually

# We added 3 new rhythms #
- Xaxado from a genre called forró which originated in the northeast part of Brazil.
- Yuca , an Afro-Cuban folkloric rhythm played by the Bantu.
- Conga also called conga de comparsa is the name given to the rhythm of the Cuban Carnaval. Comparsas are large ensembles of costumed dancers, musicians and singers that perform in the street carnavals of Havana and Santiago de Cuba. In this example, you hear a conga habanera from Havana.
Enjoy!

We got a 4.5/5 score from the great German online magazine Bonedo: http://www.bonedo.de/artikel/einzelansicht/percussiontutor-app-version-44-test.html. And take a look at Modern Drummer's October edition: " 9 iOS Apps Every Drummer Should Know".
###Special new year edition###
- 4 new rhythms: Timba, Abakua Havana, Agayu Part 1 & 2 (with three new videos)
- audio over bluetooth functionality is back!
- playback indicator (very handy to know your position in a rhythm's cycle and of course to give us simple mortal players an idea about the first downbeat ...)
- minor bug fixes (also some sheet corrections, thanks to bonedo.de for pointing that out)
- we updated the version number to 4.92 and there is a reason why we stopped short of calling it a V5.0 ... so expect great things in 2016!

Rick Zayas,
Percussion Tutor is a work of genius!!!
I’m a musician who has played with many Latin Bands throughout my life. And I enjoy studying the different roles each percussionist in a section plays. For me, Percussion Tutor is like dying and going to heaven. It gives you so much for a ridiculously small price. The app is worth 20 times of its price. Not only do you get a very strong presentation of different AfroCuban Popular Dance Drum Patterns, you get an array of patterns in Cuban Folk Music, Rumba, Batá, etc. Each one of the Patterns and their role in the Culture of Cuba is discussed. Then Dominican, Puerto Rican, African, Brazilian, Peruvian Drum pattern are presented in a beautiful way. The recording sounds great. Great musicians. I highly recommend this app for anyone who loves the culture of Drums. Brilliant!!!
Willowsax,
Awesome app
If you play percussion, use the world music drumming curriculum as a teacher, participate in drum circles such as HealthRhythms, Arthur Hull’s Village Drum Circles or just love Afro Latin music then this is the book. It’s a great practice tools and is an awesome way to learn all the parts. If there are two of you you can mute two parts in an ensemble and jam out. The game that goes with this, Rhythm Game, is a great practice tool too. It gives feedback on best timing accuracy and is a great design. It’s free if you beat each level and you only pay to unlock all levels.
Arbolito Bihomaya,
Great! Could use a few improvements
I love this app! I’m giving it 4 stars though, because there are a few improvements I’d like to see. I don’t like that the pitch of the percussion instruments change when adjusting tempo. I’d like for the pitch to be fixed. Or maybe to have separate controls for both pitch and tempo.
Next, it would be nice to have separate volume controls for individual instruments. Finally, the bossa move rhythm maxes out at 155bpm, which is still pretty slow, so I’d like to have the ability to set a higher tempo for it. Other than that, I love this app and hope to see continual improvements in the future.

HermanEC,
Excellent App
This is the best percussion app I’ve seen in the app store. I hope they continue to expand rhythms that include traditional rhythms from Colombia and other South American countries. I really hope you consider Cumbia, Bullerengue, Mapale, Vallenato Rhythms, and Colombian Pacific Rhythms. I know there’s a world of rhythms but why not make a recommendation. Also, the Dominican section could really use a Bachata rhythm. Thank you for an excellent app. I really hope you continue to grow.
bennyNYC,
A must-have app
These guys have produced an immensely well thought out and beautifully executed app.
As a rock and roll bass player who by sheer happenstance was fortunate enough to learn from an amazing mix of Afro Cuban musicians like Armando Peraza, Walfredo Reyes, Jr., Karl Perazzo, Rebeca Mauleón, Horacio “El Negro” Hernandez, Raul Rekow and others, I can safely say that the amount of work and passion that has been put into this app is second to none.
If you even have a passing interest in bettering yourself as a musician, you should get this app.

Percussion Tutor Review
For the Latin or Afrocuban drummer, this app is worth 10x the price at least. Especially for bata rhythms and other folk rhythms that aren’t easy to find a lot of recordings of. Just wish you could adjust the volume levels of each instrument instead of just muting them. This would help seeing how two instruments fit together while distinguishing one from the other. Also, hope Bembe gets added soon.

btxpress1,
A must have for anyone interested in rhythm
The ability to solo each instrument or several instruments in an ensemble and play along is priceless. The accompanying videos and sheet music is unbelievable given the low price of the Pro app. I’ve enjoyed it for years and decided I had to write review. This is one of those rare apps where the love of the music and the subject comes thru.
PFDrums,
A must buy!
A fantastic tool! (And it keeps getting better with every update!) Rhythms are written out and demonstrated with videos. Parts can be added/subtracted for practice. On of the best apps out there!
MitchRomney,
Outstanding value
I didn’t hesitate to pay $10 for this app - the batá content alone is worth more to me than that! Would love to see the addition of more West-African dance rhythms. Please keep this going, guys!
Q-Tripp,
The greatest app ever?
I am a musician and have travelled to a dozen countries to study. Much of what I’ve wanted to understand is all in this app. It is a treasure and an indispensable resource for those who want to explore traditional African rhythms.
