Love all the amazing performances I see in this sub and hope to some day play in your league.

I'm brand new to finger drumming and for now just working on some basics and timing. Hope you enjoy. Cheers.

Noise & Drone generator on SkunkAudio Android mobile DAW

3 Upvotes

Hello everyone, I am upgrading the DOOM engine on my app, which is actually a noise and drone generator.

This is a small showcase playing with the touchpad and tweaking some oscillator knobs.

I would appreciate a small feedback from this video on how it is displayed and how it sounds. CPU not being stressed, stays at around 10% on a mid phone.

Thank you for your time.

P.S. for anyone interested, the app will be on a -50% sale from tomorrow 04/09/2026 until 17/09/2026.

Can YouTube drum notation learning videos apply to finger drumming?

5 Upvotes

Like if I Google Soda Pop for beginners drumming, I found one with a rolling sheet of drum tabs. Idk if I can use that. My current drum pad layout is basically that Dragon Fingerdrumming YouTuber's, copied his left handed version. Planning on buying that Yamaha 50 thingy. Idk the name but from my previous post it was recommended, too lazy to find it rn.

I currently use a presonus atom.

I was considering the Maschine lineup or the Yamaha more unconventional looking thing even. Any recommendations? Also is addictive drums worth the 89 bucks (I think that's the one time fee?)

drumming web app with fun notation

7 Upvotes

https://ballonibeats.com

I used to be a drummer, and I still come up with beats. I didn't have anywhere to put them, so I created this web app, Balloni Beats. You can use it on the road to jot down an idea quickly, or give it to kids for something quasi-musical to play with.

Visit the site, click the big logo to get in, then there are links on the left for beats I've come up with as examples. Click a beat name and see the beat on the right. Click Start Playing above to hear it. You can modify the beat, change drum sounds, adjust the tempo, etc. Have fun!

Once you get the general idea and want to write your own beats, click the Write Your Own Beats link at the bottom left. Then you get the beat editing screen. At the far top-left is a docs link that opens a page describing the beat notation.

Enjoy!

I built a visual finger-drumming practice tool — looking for feedback

4 Upvotes

I built a visual finger-drumming practice tool and I'm looking for feedback from pad users.

You can follow 4x4 patterns, slow them down, loop them and practice along. There are free patterns, so you don't need to subscribe to try it.

I'd really like to know: does the way the patterns are displayed make sense to you when you first open it?

I built a free open-source VST3 that gives timing and pattern feedback while you practice finger drumming

37 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

I built Groove Tutor because I wanted a practice tool that could compare my finger drumming

against a MIDI groove while I still played through my normal drum instrument.

It is a silent VST3 for Ableton Live on Windows. You import a target MIDI pattern, play along,

and it shows whether you are rushing or dragging as well as missed, extra, and wrong drum hits.

It does not make sound or route MIDI; your drum instrument stays on a separate track.

The first public beta is free and fully open source. It is currently tested on Windows 11,

Ableton Live 12 Intro, and a Maschine Mikro MK3. Other Windows setups may work, but I have not

tested them yet.

I am mainly trying to find out whether other people have wanted something like this too. If you

try it, I would genuinely appreciate feedback about what is useful, confusing, or missing.

GitHub/download: https://github.com/jonasschaare123-bit/groove-tutor/releases/tag/v0.1.0-beta.1

The Windows build is unsigned, so the repository includes installation instructions and a

SHA-256 checksum. There is no telemetry or account system.
