The little shark is back. After 25 years, the new Hammerhead is a fresh, mobile reinterpretation of the classic software drum computer that started it all.
Hammerhead is still simple, fun and playful. It still feels like a little 90s groovebox. Except this time it fits in your pocket, it integrates in your plugin ecosystem and comes with a lot more creative possibilities...
- Pick from dozens of classic sounds and loops, or import your own WAVs
- Use the built-in drum synth to design your own kicks, bobs, tocks and thwacks
- Runs standalone and as a state-of-the art AUv3 Audio Unit plugin (e.g. in Garageband)
- AU plugin supports individual outputs per channel, MIDI output and fullscreen modes
- Trigger sounds and patterns using MIDI (when hosted as an AU plugin)
- One-click compression and distortion, with several sound models
- Let the universe decide: random pattern generator, mutation, glitch and much more
- Easily create complex evolving polyrhythms
- Designed for creative fun: no menu diving or arcane expert settings. Just dive in and create

Awesome Groovebox
This app is amazing - I love the fast and hands on groove creation. Really gets you going. The options to tweak the patterns and sounds are amazing and playing with the pattern settings give some really creative results (Polyrhythms, playing with the sample start etc)
What I would love to see though is some improvements of the user interface especially for live performance. For example in the mixer channel, the mute buttons are somewhat hard to tap (reliable) sometimes and an option to „slide across to mute“ multiple tracks with one gesture would be nice.
Also the (upper) knobs are somewhat hard to tune. What I would also love within the app would be an basic eq for each sound (high pass / low pass) and an option to alter the attack of the sounds. In my opinion, the „Chan. Config“ button should not make the pattern settings (velocity etc) disappear.
These are only minor flaws as the app is in my opinion perfect as it is.
great app
Really super this "rhythm shark", as usual for Bram Bos apps…;) Multibus output! Awesome feature… It would be nice to repeat the several patterns like this is possible in other Rozeta-apps, eg Rozeta Cells: go to pattern…
Intuitive Drum Synth
Certainly the best drum machine for iOs I know of(though I don t know the other bram bos drum synths yet).You can easily create your very own crazy drum sounds because it isn t just a drum machine but a drum synth.Love it! Highly recommended!
Yes! That‘s a drum machine with the bass I searched for!
I was not happy with Garage band nor Cubasis drum machine according the Bass for electronic music.
I tried to adjust my bass with Equalizer….. forget it.
I bought „AR 909“ by Audiokit, it is a nice, but limited, drum machine/sequencer, which works not so good with Garage band as I expected.
Hammerhead, it works very well with Garage band in some tracks. One can edit the tracks afterwards in Garage band (midi).
It works very well with my own synthetic adjusted drums and my sequences.
You can make your own drums with a Synthesizer or by sound import. Or you choose one from the many drum machines!
I can say: I love this app!
Return of a Classic
Hammerhead is better than ever before. Great Drum Sequencer with many sound and tweaking options. Load your own samples use the great stock ones or synthesize your own with the built in synth. Shuffle and Mutation are superb features.
The only thing I would wish for would be a midi export function in order to export made sequences into other DAWs.
