Thanks for using Drum Notation by Beat Note!
IMPROVEMENTS
  • Added hardware keyboard shortcuts for macOS and iPad users with external keyboards.
  • Spacebar now toggles playback start/stop across all four practice and edit screens.
  • Up and Right Arrow keys increase tempo by 1 BPM.
  • Down and Left Arrow keys decrease tempo by 1 BPM.
  • Hold Shift while using arrow keys to jump tempo by ±10 BPM, matching the existing long-press button behavior.
  • Both vertical and horizontal arrow directions are supported so tempo adjustments feel natural regardless of which keys you prefer to use.
