The InstantDrummer iPhone App provides easy to use, customizable drum loops in your pocket. Pick a groove, tap in a tempo, and InstantDrummer inspires you to play along with continuously varying drum tracks using perfectly matched, full kit studio drum recordings.

InstantDrummer: Heartbreaker was first in a series of InstantDrummer iPhone Apps that continue to be released in various genres. Jason McGerr, the drummer for pop-rock band Death Cab for Cutie, recorded Heartbreaker on his signature Ludwig drum kit in his Seattle based studio, Two Sticks Audio. Produced by Hayden Bursk of Drummerheads.

Better than a metronome! Set the tempo and let Jason McGerr keep the beat for you.

Better than a drum machine! InstantDrummer gives you a celebrity drummer recorded in a real studio. Adjust and build the recordings into drum tracks for your songs.

Spin the INTENSITY wheel to set the mood from mellow to aggressive. Add some VARIATION to get a constantly evolving beat. AMBIENCE adds room sound and GAIN sets the level. No tedious editing or disappointing sounds, just a great drummer, ready to jam.
