Description

The little shark is back. After 25 years, the new Hammerhead is a fresh, mobile reinterpretation of the classic software drum computer that started it all. Hammerhead is still simple, fun and playful. It still feels like a little 90s groovebox. Except this time it fits in your pocket, it integrates in your plugin ecosystem and comes with a lot more creative possibilities... - Pick from dozens of classic sounds and loops, or import your own WAVs - Use the built-in drum synth to design your own kicks, bobs, tocks and thwacks - Runs standalone and as a state-of-the art AUv3 Audio Unit plugin (e.g. in Garageband) - AU plugin supports individual outputs per channel, MIDI output and fullscreen modes - Trigger sounds and patterns using MIDI (when hosted as an AU plugin) - One-click compression and distortion, with several sound models - Let the universe decide: random pattern generator, mutation, glitch and much more - Easily create complex evolving polyrhythms - Designed for creative fun: no menu diving or arcane expert settings. Just dive in and create Find the manual on Ruismaker.com

★★★★★Personal favorite🇺🇸 US

Easy to use, modify, and create with. Lots of presets for kicks, hats, and snares (among other drum heads too). Built in breaks (amen, Apache, think, funky drummer,…). Drum synth is good too. Killer like all Bram Bos apps

★★★★★2025 still my go to drum machine🇺🇸 US

Nothing beats hammerheads workflow. Incredible multi-genre presets. Hammerhead is the best.

★★★★★Easy to use! 🙌🏼🇺🇸 US

This is my go-to rhythm box for improvisational music making. Just enough features to provide what I need without being overwhelming. Really appreciate that I can create multiple patterns per kit and switch between them easily, either sequenced, or manually. You can also create polyrhythms, with each channel in a pattern having a different number of steps 👌🏼

★★★★★Fantastic but needs an update🇺🇸 US

Absolutely love this app…the layout and functionality is unmatched. Quick to use with amazing results. Please update with a deeper drum synth engine, more extensive midi mapping (solo per voice please!!!) User folder for voices *in app* without having to jump to import. Ability to send voices from presets into user storage for quicker access. So easy to jump sound to sound in classic, would be great to have that possibility for user sounds as well. Brilliant app I use daily and would be elated with an update!!!

★★★★★Good app auv3 sequence mode could use fix though🇺🇸 US

The app is very good in my opinion. The im thing I would recommend fixing in this app is when using it as an auv3 it starts playing in sequence mode on pattern 2 instead of pattern 1. If they fix it the app would be even better.

Where’s my Moonfish, Bram?

★★★★★BEST BEAT MACHINE OUT THERE🇺🇸 US

I wouldn’t waste your time and galaxy credits on anything else if you’re looking for a straightforward linear sequencer that has enough options within enough parameters to make any fn around #bholebeats sound like serious #animalbeats … and if you’d rather it sound like playing a kit without elbows - all stiff and quantized like Bender Bending Rodriguez, then that’s in there too. Arturia iSpark is pretty versatile as well, but it feels a lot more bulky and you can get similar results, but not as quickly in my experience. It kinda feels like they made their other drum apps obsolete with this. plus - the fact that you can import your own audio samples for each slot should be a standard feature on all drumming apps, but since it’s not it makes this one that much better. plus plus - if you don’t want to hassle with importing your own samples there are plenty included and the randomized generator is an endless supply of beat candy for your #babybeats.

★★★★❤️but needs more🇺🇸 US

Pls add at least 32step sequences maybe 16 per page formatted option in a future update or as inter app purchase and this would make so many ppl happy Glitches and randomization on the full kit only is basic here. most of the fun of these sequencing apps would be to have control over setting locking randomization parameters on each sound individually.. we’re in the 2020s now.. ive assumed most drum pattern programmers had most their fun expressing themselves exploring finer tunedness of their own idiosyncrasies. ive got this app assuming it’d be more fun here :(( expanding upon skimming through and setting different randomization states would be great please consider my request when u have the time

★★★★★Great app!🇺🇸 US

Perhaps my most used drum machine on iOS simply because it doesn’t require additional midi apps to play and sync with the rest of my AUM set up. Feature request: Please, if at all possible, under the pitch control, please show note designation (i.e. A, C, G, etc) corresponding to the pitch selected. This will save a lot of time with matching the drum to the harmony with other instruments instead of trying to do it all by ear.

★★★★★Real nice🇺🇸 US

Very nice drum machine, easy to catch on and make some beats with. I use it with my guitar so I can try to make some good drum tracks with it, fun to fiddle around with when bored too.
