I have one, I do not recall ever using the software to create my own patterns or songs. I bought one of the extended libraries. I’ve performed with it a couple times over live online open mics when Covid first hit. Before that I did use it
In a classroom setting. Nice thing about the Beat Buddy is playing in odd time signatures. I have the original with the larger screen and you can watch the beat move on the screen and visually see when the next measure arrives. I like it far better than drum machines. The only tricky thing at times is ending the song, if you don’t double tap correctly, it just keeps playing. Typically no different than a looper, best to avoid putting it on any soft carpet.
