Add percussion to your practice, or a percussionist to your performance! SambApp is a Brazilian rhythm metronome for music/dance/capoeira practice and performance. The app provides a steady beat just like any other metronome, but it adds a more fun and dynamic component with the sound of Brazilian percussion instruments: pandeiro, shaker, triangle, and berimbau. Options include: Pandeiro Baião (Forró) Pandeiro Capoeira Pandeiro Partido Alto Pandeiro Samba Pandeiro Samba Choro Shaker Triangle Berimbau Angola Berimbau Regional Berimbau São Bento Grande de Angola Metronome/Beep Tempo range: 50-130 BPM Use the 'Save setting' function to save and access often-used settings. For best results, use an amp or external speakers to hear the high quality recordings. Attention: Capoeira rhythm names and patterns may vary from your definitions. Please visit our website to hear examples.
Great sounds, but very limited and combos make no sense.
Why would you want to mix, say, choro pandeiro with berimbau Angola? There is no other ritmo to play with pandeiro choro that actually belongs in choro. Also, pandeiro samba and pandeiro choro sound the same in the app, but are not played the same ITRW. Love the effort and the authenticity of each ritmo, but way too limited for my needs as it is now.
Ingenious!
I’ve found the perfect metronome! EXACTLY what I needed for my capoeira practice. The app’s design is excellent, sound quality is great, and it works like a charm. Thanks, Samba Jig Productions!
False Advertising
Lies! The app developers lied- it stated on the App store description that it includes the berimbau Benguela toque but it does not! It includes berimbau Sao Bento Grande de Angola instead which is NOT the same. I feel CHEATED out of $3 for an app I bought specifically to practice Benguela but does not actually include Benguela 😡
