Ratings and reviews

As a humble double bass player trying to learn more of this beautiful musical tradition, this app is a godsend. It loops the various rhythmic cycles for the pieces I'm trying to learn (mostly Samai and Bashraf) in a clear and concise manner. An excellent addition to my bag of tools for personal practice. My heartfelt thanks to the developers of this app 🙏

why is the Kuwaiti rhythms section not available with Al-Muwashahat in Android? I also noticed there is no Rumba Adani & Arabi rhythm on Android, they are only in ios There is also a problem with the Jorjina rhythm when I speed it up with metronome on Android I hope you add the Iraqi rhythms (Al-Hewa - Al-Rub3 - Al-Khashabah - Al-Janubi) And I hope to add some variations for rhythms such as rumba on the riq Lastly, The application is awesome. I hope you will continue to update

تطبيق جيد وسيستحق الخمسة نجوم بجدارة فيما لو أمكن تطويره بحيث يتمكن المستخدم من تدوين نونات إيقاعاته الخاصة وحفظها. Good application and it will deserve the five stars If it can be developed so that users can write and save their own rhythms, just like Rhythm Maker

What's new

Minor bug fixes and rhythm changes.
