5/5So worth it!
Actually has feel, because these are recordings of actual musicians playing all the parts, not midi sequences. Each loop is of ample length - sometimes longer to get some variation when applicable - for instance guanguanco loop is longer to allow quinto doing some soloing and variation. There is the ability to mute each part, change tempo (some digital artifacts of course, since these are recordings being slowed down or sped up, not midi sequences, but very usable). Many other features like every part notated, and videos of musicians playing the parts. I haven’t come across in-app purchases, also great.

5/5Great!
Great for practice and play along. Hopefully more rhythms available soon. Could definitively use a bar going through the sheet music to see in real time where the beats are.

5/5Nice!!
Simple and easy to use, with great sounding loops by real musicians. If you're planning on expanding your Brazilian offerings, I'd love to see choro genres (slow choro, fast choro, maxixe, polca, xote, etc) plus forró! eBatuque recently jacked up its prices and switched to a subscription model, so if you guys offered an alternative I'd happily recommend this app to all the choro players I know.

5/5Potentially the best app for latin rhythms.
I love this app!!! I use it for practice and to work through ideas for song writing. It’s my practice buddy, my play-along backing track, and my study partner. I really hope you keep adding more rhythms. This app is a masterpiece thank you.

5/5Awesome
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.

4.92
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!

5.1
# 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!
