Ratings and Reviews
Absolutely fantastic
Genuinely brilliant app. I never write review normally but felt compelled to for this app; although it’s not cheap as far as apps go it really is worth every penny.
I have been logging my rudiments manually these past couple of months with a view to input bpm progress into an excel doc. This app takes all of this information and more, and automatically chucks it into graphs. Also makes running through some of stick control more straightforward too, although I will say that I keep my copy open next to the app so that I can double check what the next pattern is.
Overall, loads of functionality, should be on every drummer’s iPad.
Long term user updated review
This is such a brilliant app I use it to create both a bpm count in for every song in our set(s) and also use the PDF function to print out for band members, no more typing into word. I’ve recently ( through the superb support from the developer Joe) found out I can copy playlists and edit them making the process of changes to the set so much easier. Overall I find this an invaluable app that I seem to get more and more from as time goes on.
Developer Response ,
Glad you like the text size feature. More improvements for gig mode coming in the next update!
The Most Powerful Metronome
Polynome is my daily practice tool. I have different presets and have built playlists to make more efficient and organised practice. I’ve barely scratched the surface of what PolyNome can do and it’s already been of exceptional value. If you’re a musician this has so many useful features- if you’re not a drummer it can BE your drummer - I use PolyNome for both bass guitar and drum practice as well as with students.
Developer Response ,
Thanks for such a great review. It’s always nice to hear how non-drummers find it useful.
