## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Good beginner practice
  

*by M***G on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on February 18, 2010*

I am a beginner.  I can play  few of the basic rhythms at moderate speed.There is a track for each of the standard Middle Eastern rhythm,  for some rhythms there are several.  The rhythm is played continuously at constant, moderate speed (around 140 bpm)  and without variation for a couple or more minutes.  The rhythm  may be take a different form in the fourth measure, but always in the same way.  An intro track for each rhythm speaks the strikes  for that rhythm.The tracks have a robotic sound to them.  Perhaps they were made with a drum machine,  I couldnt find any info.  They are completely uninspiring.  However,  I look at this as a specialized metronome that marks every note in the right place.  Playing along is very good drill, though not exciting.  Another use is to accompany the track with an embellished form of the rhythm.  Unfortunately, there are not faster and slower versions of the same rhythm and at 140bpm, most arabic drumming sounds lame.This is a good tool for a beginner like me. I downloaded the mp3 and for $9 its a good value.  I don't think it would be much value to an intermediate player.
