Drum Trainer Pro Support

Last updated: July 19, 2026

About the app

Drum Trainer Pro turns an electronic drum kit into a timing trainer. Connect a USB-MIDI kit and every hit appears on a scrolling timeline the moment it lands, positioned exactly early or late of the beat, with per-drum meters showing which voices are rushing or dragging.

Getting started

Connect your electronic drum kit to your iPhone or iPad with a USB cable, open the app, and start playing. Hits appear on their own instrument lanes right away. Pick a tempo mode — Fixed to hold a BPM, Detect to follow your tempo, or Ramp for progressive speed-up drills.

No kit? Use the simulator

You do not need hardware to explore the app. Open Settings and switch on the built-in Simulator to generate hits, including different patterns, sloppiness modes, and tempo profiles.

Frequently asked

My kit is not being detected.: Check that the USB cable is a data cable and is firmly connected, and that your kit is powered on and set to send MIDI over USB. If your device needs a camera adapter or USB hub to supply power, make sure it is connected. Try unplugging and reconnecting the kit with the app open.
Which kits are supported?: The app ships with a full voice map for the Roland TD-27. Other USB-MIDI kits work too — open the note map in Settings and assign your kit's notes to the matching drums.
Does the app record audio?: No. It never uses the microphone. Session recording captures the timing of your MIDI hits, not sound.
Does it work offline?: Yes, entirely. The app makes no network calls, so every feature works with no internet connection.
Is my data private?: Yes. Your practice data is recorded and kept on your device, and the app has no network access at all, so nothing can be sent anywhere. See the Privacy Policy.
