DrumShed on the web

Your whole library.
On a big screen.

The pattern editor, live playback, your songs and sheet music you can print — in a browser, on the same account as the app.

For All Access members, in alpha. New to DrumShed? Start with a free week in the app.

Included with All Access. Nothing extra to buy.

Made for a laptop or desktop. The editor and the practice stage need a wider screen than a phone.

The 20-second tour. Sound is on the speaker button.

Built for a keyboard.
Played on your kit.

Everything you make on the web is in the app the next time you open it, and the other way round.

Pattern editor

The full editor, as wide as your screen.

Build beats and fills on a grid that fits the whole bar, with the keyboard, a rail of tools, and the staff above it as you go.

Every voice on its own lane
Ghost notes, accents and flams by velocity
The staff redraws as you edit

The editor up close: a groove on the staff, and the same groove on the grid with sticking on every note

Tools

Every tool is one key away.

The side panel holds the tools, the velocity and the feel, and each one has a key. Switch to flams or sticking, drop in a ghost, and hear it back without leaving the grid.

V, E, K, S, P, F and T for the tools
A, N and G for accent, normal and ghost
Space to play, ⌘K for every command

The editor's side panel: Draw, Erase, Select, Sticking, Pocket, Flam, Drag and Diddle tools with their keys, velocity keys, and the bar's meter and feel

Live playback

Play it back, big enough to read from the kit.

Hit Practice on anything in your library and it plays on a full-screen stage, with the click, the tempo and the sticking in reach.

Notation or grid, page or scroll
Set the tempo, or tap it in
Loop a bar until it sits

The practice stage: a groove in large drum notation with sticking under each note, and tempo and click controls down the left

Songs

Play along with the drums turned down.

Upload a recording you own, or pick a built-in backing track. Mute or solo the drums, slow it down without changing the pitch, and keep the click on the beat.

Band, drums and click on their own faders
Slow down to 0.6× at the same pitch
Built-in royalty-free backing tracks

The Songs page: built-in backing tracks with cover art, style, tempo and level, filtered by genre

A song open in the player: the beat grid, play controls, and faders for band, drums and click

Sheet music

Real notation, ready to print.

Any beat or fill in your library renders as engraved drum notation — sticking, accents, feet — and prints or saves as a PDF.

Engraved, not approximated
Print it, or save it as a PDF

Builders

Step-by-step, with a preview at every step.

The Beat Builder, Fill Builder and Exercise Labs walk you through a groove, a fill or a drill one decision at a time, and you hear it as you go.

Start from nothing or from a preset
Hear every step before you commit
Open the result straight in the editor

Beat Builder

A groove, then its cymbals, toms, hi-hat foot and feel.

Fill Builder

A sticking, then its accents, voicing and flams.

Exercise Labs

A lab for the kind of drill you need, one choice at a time.

One account

One library, on every screen.

The web signs in to the account you use in the app. Your beats, fills, folders and songs are already there. Write it at the desk, then play it from your phone at the kit.
