本研究旨在尋找新的爵士鼓靈感記錄方式，並藉由設計創作與評估探討新的記錄方式是否能滿足爵士鼓手在記錄上的需求。爵士鼓手是樂團中的靈魂之一，但爵士鼓體積龐大無法隨身攜帶，不 能隨時隨地準確記下靈感；利用 iPad 平板電腦高度的可攜性與支援性，帶給爵士鼓手紀錄靈感的新契機，因此，若在 iPad 上開發一套爵士鼓靈感紀錄應用程式將有助於解決靈感紀錄的問題。本研究透過前導研究整理出爵士鼓手靈感紀錄應用程式的設計原則，並依此創作出一款 iPad 應用程式 Dr. Helper - Rock Kit ；再以觀察法與問卷量表驗證其使用性。而研究結果顯示， Dr. Helper - Rock Kit的使用性符合專家標準，表現形式也滿足爵士鼓手在靈感記錄上需求。

Drummers are the important role in a band, they control tempo and punch in the songs. However, the drum’s volume is too prodigious to carrying, result in drummers cannot record their idea preciously. In 2010, iPad brings a turning point to drummers idea recording, because iPad not only have good portability, but also get application easily. Therefore, if we can develop a idea recording application for drummers, the problem should be solved. This study through pre-research to generalize a design principle for drummer ideas recording application and use it to develop a iPad application- Dr. Helper - Rock Kit. After application development, this study verifi es the application’s usability by observation and questionnaire. Finally, Dr. Helper - Rock Kit’s concept and usability are both consistent with drummers requirement when they record their idea.
