SnareTools

SnareTools completely revolutionizes how you work on your snare chops. In a league of its own, it lets you both manually input rhythms and generate random, customized exercises, all shown on an editable music score. You can also save rhythms, browse and practice rudiments, and get real-time feedback of how accurately you are playing along! It's perfect for all skill levels, from beginner to extremely advanced, hybrid rudiment machines.

Practice the simplest to the most complex of rhythms. If you can think of the rhythm, you can input it and practice it! Anything from whole notes to thirtysecond notes, along with tuplets of any kind (nested or not). Lastly, top off the notes with ornaments: stickings, accents, flams, diddles, and cheese - perfect for rudimental snare drummers. Input up to 32 measures.

Instantly generate random exercises according to parameters that you specify: number of measures, note density, subdivisions, note ornaments, time signatures, tuplets, and saved rhythms. Perfect for site-reading and for increasing your rhythmic vocabulary.

If you struggle with a certain rhythm, save it, and practice it by itself! Or, generate random exercises that incorporate this rhythm. That way, you can practice this rhythm in all sorts of contexts. And, as you are practicing, you will be given realtime feedback of how accurately you are playing along.

You can also browse and practice 40 essential rudiments and many hybrid rudiments.

For highlighted rhythms, shuffle around groups of notes, stickings, accents, flams, diddles, and cheese.
