Motion Drum is a drum simulator that lets you drum by simply waving your iPhone or iPod Touch in the air. No tiny buttons to tap; just take your device in hand and air drum in one of four different directions.

*******************************
In this Lite version, there are 15 different drum sounds available.
Note: the full version of this app features over 80 different sounds.

How to Play

Note: There are two play modes available: Snap Mode and Swing Mode. In Snap Mode, snapping your wrist will cause notes to play, while in Swing Mode, sounds are played by moving the device while keeping your wrist straight. Please try both modes and find the one that best suits your style of play.

* Motion Drum reacts differently based on the way you swing and how you position the device in your hand. As such, you should spend some time tweaking the sensitivity of each direction, and find the settings that are right for you.

FOR THOSE NEW TO DRUMMING:
First, you should focus on playing a simple rhythm with the bass and snare drums. Once you are able to get a good beat going, try mixing the rhythm up and adding new sounds.

Note: planning NYARO is not responsible for any injuries or damage caused by swinging your device around in the air!
