A Beat Maker Pro lesson: listen first, then play the highlighted pads

Listen. Play. Score.

A lesson is a short part of a beat, played on the pads of the pack. You hear it first, then it is your turn.

  1. Listen

    The lesson plays the beat first. Not sure yet? Watch the demo: the app plays the lesson by itself, pad by pad.

  2. Play

    Tap the pads as they light up. The pads show you which one to tap and when.

  3. Get your score

    At the end, you see how many taps were Perfect, Good, Early, Late or missed, and your score for the lesson.

Your timing

Every tap gets a rating.
Every lesson, a score.

Beat Maker Pro compares each tap with the beat and rates it. Your ratings add up to a score from 0 to 100% at the end of the lesson.

  • Perfect

    Within 50 milliseconds of the beat.

  • Good

    Within 150 milliseconds.

  • Early · Late

    Too soon or too late, but still played.

  • Miss

    A tap that never came, or came far too late.

Tapping the wrong pad does not lower your score: only the timing of the expected taps counts.

Questions & answers

Questions about lessons

Do I need to know music theory?

No. The lessons show you which pad to tap and when. You learn the beat by listening and playing it back.

How many lessons are there?

More than 1,000 lessons in total. Each sound pack has its own series, from a few lessons to more than twenty.

What if I fail a lesson?

Try again as many times as you like. If you are stuck, you can also watch a short video to skip a lesson you failed, except the last lesson of a pack.

Are the lessons free?

Lessons come with their sound pack. Some packs are free, others unlock with a short video, by leveling up, in career mode or with the subscription. See how to unlock packs.

Can I use Bluetooth headphones?

You can, but wireless headphones can add a delay between your tap and the sound, which makes your timing harder to judge. For lessons, the phone speaker or wired headphones work best. Read the guide.
