Reported issues with Iphone5S in Dec 2013 and was told there had not been alot of testing done with the 5S. Would have been nice to know that before spending 60 bucks.I have noticed the following issues on my Iphone5S- sometimes trigger is recognized , sometimes not- doesnt save settings (beats/window/sensitivity) - sometimes it tracks beats , sometimes not - untrustworthy at my gigs - the help screen is of no use you click the topics and they do nothing??
Just works
Innovative system here that works really well. I love the ability to change sensitivity for ghost notes and the leader board is a fun idea. Way to go, 5/5
Absolute must
Superb design, durable and simple to use. Every drummer ‘should’ have this set up with their rig. It does not interfere with your existing triggers, rhythm samplers/tracks, etc…It stands alone as a ‘speedometer’ of sorts. Just a great way to check where you sit on the beat from time to time. I have seen other devices similar to this; but I must say, the quality here is far better and the price simply can’t be beat (pun intended). I actually didn’t even hook it up to the snare. I placed it on the Hi-hat cause thats where I keep my time. I don’t need to worry about all the inflections/fills/ghost notes on my snare…the hi-hat is steady. Though, if you choose, there is a toggle on the application to adjust the sensitivity for filtering out ghost notes on the snare and only track solid down beats. Well done!
New main screen?
Dude, I love this sensor and app. It prevents a lot of grief and arguments, and made the band trust me (if reluctantly since they are proven to fight tempo). But this new update??? I much prefer the old circle-with-revolving-dot screen over the new “odometer” screen. Could the old one be added back in as an option to choose for your main interface? Please? Also, the menu screen on the left doesn’t fully come into view when I open it up. Minor bug, though.
Comparison
I was using Tempo-Ref which was okay but IMHO I like Backbeater much better! It’s a great App and works great! Playing solid time is the drummer’s #1 job along with Feel. It’s nice to have proof for yourself that you’re in the pocket and not speeding up or slowing down the tempo!! Great job Backbeater!!!
Old version please!
New version of app is quite inferior to old circular version. Extremely disappointing. I used old version on every gig. This one…nope. Same things are best left alone.
Works great!
The drum pickup is easy to install and the new app is great. Changing saved song order is very helpful.
Don’t buy the sensor
If you want to use the product as just a metronome then try it out but don’t purchase the sensor. The first one I bought work for around a year(maybe) and it do work as stated however it did stop working because the wires detached inside the part that attaches to the drum. I went without for awhile and figured I give it another shot. The new sensor just arrived and it had been redesigned and looked more durable so I was pleased but then it doesn’t work at all out of the box. I’ve asked for a refund and I’m waiting on a response but beware of the sensor it is low quality.
Option to see old display?
I got to say, I like the older version of the app better. The Tempo readout font is much larger on the old app and all hits (including early and late hits) cause a flash to show up somewhere on the circle. The new version of the app only triggers the flash when you hit the tempo exactly. If you are early or late, the needle moves, but no obvious indication that the sensor felt the hit. This caused me frustrations a couple times thinking the sensor wasn’t picking up my hits because I was playing too lightly. As others requested.... could you add an option to view the “Circle Display”?
Bring back the circle!
The speedometer is interesting, but please give us the option to choose the speedometer or the circle!
