V-Drums Friend Jam is an app that makes your daily drum performance and practicing even more fun!
Drum practice songs for rock and jazz are available free of charge, and you can use them for enjoyable practice. If you use this app with the latest Roland V-Drums electronic drum system, your performance score and world-wide ranking will be displayed, allowing you to compete and socialize with drummers around the world.

[ Main Functions ]

When you start up the app, songs for practicing and playing the drums in a variety of musical styles will be downloaded automatically. You can play back these songs for enjoyable drum practice.
For even more drum performance enjoyment, using this app with compatible V-Drums will let you use the following functions.

● When you drum along with a song, your drumming will be shown in the screen of your iPhone/iPod touch, and will be scored when you finish playing. Your results will be shown as a world-wide ranking.

● You can operate the app almost entirely from your drum pads, so theres no need to set down your sticks.

● You can load favorite songs from the music library of your iPhone/iPod touch and participate in performance and ranking.

● You can post your performance times and ranking to Twitter for enjoyable communication with V-Drums users around the world.
