Reactable has introduced SNAP, a new drum machine app for iOS and Android. It’s a free download, but In-App purchases are required to enable MIDI support and saving.
SNAP can communicate with your music apps, drum machines, DAWs and other musical equipment via MIDI OUT and Ableton Link. SNAP’s full integration with Native Instrument’s Maschine Jam, allows it to communicate bidirectionally.
Features:
- 8 drum voices, each one with its own continuous density controller.
- 4 different intelligent syncopation/reinforcement algorithms, independently selectable for each drum voice.
- MIDI IN and OUT integration (Available as an In-App purchase).
- Ableton Link synchronization support.
- 8 snapshot slots for storing, recalling and updating drum patterns on the fly.
- 16 specially designed drum kits
- Sessions and patterns covering different styles to get you started right away.

This isn’t working on Android. I have multiple devices running different versions of the OS.
Don’t worry, it’s not a very good app.
I downloaded it and couldn’t change any of the sounds so I ate it, yum what is it for lunch?
No tempo lock.
This app is awesome! Works GREAT on iOS. It’s such an awesome way to have intelligent variations on pre-determined patterns.
You don’t have to use Jam as hardware. I managed to get it to work/respond to midi CC from MidiDesignerPro… CC48 on ch.# controls sliders, etc.
Stable with Link as well.
Needs velocity control and a few other things but it’s a great start and a super-novel way to create variable patterns.
