Finally a drum app
that doesn't assume right-handed.

Every sticking pattern in DrumShed mirrors for left-handed players. Fill builder, beat builder, and all drills respect your dominant hand setting.

Left-handed across the entire app

Mirrored stickings

Every sticking pattern in the fill builder automatically mirrors for left-handed players. RLRL becomes LRLR. Paradiddles lead with the left.

🥁

Beat builder

Groove stickings flip the whole kit for left-hand lead — hat hand, ghost notes, every label reads the way you actually play.

🎼

Notation view

Sticking overlays in notation and grid view show the correct hand for lefties. No mental mirroring required.

📐

Sticking, not kit layout

Fills mirror fully; grooves flip the whole kit's sticking for mirrored setups. DrumShed swaps the hands, not the drums.

⚙️

One setting

Pick your stance once — right or left, standard or open-handed. Four stances, and every builder and drill follows it.

📤

Share both ways

Exported patterns and notation show the sticking for your handedness. Share with students or on social with correct hand labels.

Play open-handed? That's a stance too.

DrumShed has four stances: right-handed, left-handed, and an open-handed version of each. Open-handed flips only the time-keeping hand — you ride the hi-hat with your left, no crossover, while the snare hand stays put.

Every groove's sticking labels follow the stance you pick, in the grid, in notation, and in exports. Left-handed players who learned open-handed out of necessity finally get an app that labels it correctly.
