Reviews around numb (5.00 of 5)

  • It's pretty good - a number of different, interesting presets, controls are simple and intuitive, it's lightweight with a convenient form factor, and it sounds OK - not quite like real drums, but plenty good enough for practicing
  • Easy to figure out, just hold down any number in the top row till big button lights up,you can add to beat.to clear just hold down 2 big buttons

Reviews around feel (5.00 of 5)

  • For a more realistic feeling click track to stay on time...should function just fine.
  • I'd recommend the Korg KR to anyone who, like me, needs to tighten his or her feel for the rhythm of the music.

Reviews around play (5.00 of 5)

  • Sound quality is excellent!Having it around has improved my guitar playing dramatically and made practice much more fun!
  • The tempo dial, as great as it is, does not have any sort of indication of what BPM your drums are playing at
  • This unit sounds excellent played through an amp using its 1/8" out jack, and the little speaker it comes with is fine for practice and can be surprisingly loud.

Reviews around app (5.00 of 5)

  • It is also difficult to change time signatures, I have found more capabilities in most free apps
  • If you must have precise bpm, synch it to your smartphone free metronome app.
  • The tempo dial, as great as it is, does not have any sort of indication of what BPM your drums are playing at

  • It has a great concept which I have to admit, but it is SOOOO hard to figure it out
  • Great concept but needs to be redone buttons way to close

Reviews around quality (3.86 of 5)

  • However, it does not have the quality and user-friendly features as the Hammond drum machine I had in the 1970s, and the sound quality is poor, but there is an option to feed the sound through a separate amplifier
