About
Accompanist is a real-time music slow downer and speed changer. Put a giant on-screen knob in front of any song you own and pull the tempo down to learn it — or push it up to performance speed — with the pitch locked to the original key. Built for dancers and teachers, and for any musician learning a song by ear. All in real time, all on your device.
CHANGE SPEED ANY WAY YOU LIKE
• A big rotary knob — drag in a circle.
• A slider with a clear 1× marker.
• Plus / minus buttons that nudge by 0.01×.
• A type-in field for an exact speed.
• Quick presets across your range.
• Set your own range and the value in the middle — from a gentle 0.9–1.1× to a wide 0.25–3×.
KEEP THE PITCH — OR LET IT MOVE
One toggle decides how the music responds:
• ON — tempo changes, pitch stays in the original key. Perfect for drilling choreography slowly, or learning a riff note for note.
• OFF — the classic record-speed effect.
Set the speed back to exactly 1× and the song returns to its original sound.
SEE THE LOUD AND SOFT
The timeline is a volume waveform — see the build-ups and drops, with your loop and markers on it.
LOOP & DRILL A TRICKY SECTION
• Mark A and B on the timeline and the music loops that section on repeat — drill a hard 8-count, or a fast solo, as slow as you like.
• The loop region shows right on the progress bar, and clears with one tap.
• Speed Trainer — each time the loop comes round, the tempo nudges up, so you start slow and build to full speed automatically.
KEEP THE BEAT
• Tap along to set the BPM, then get a "5, 6, 7, 8" count-in before the music starts.
• Turn on the metronome to click along at your tempo while you teach.
• Drop section markers (Intro, Chorus, the lift) and jump straight to any part of a song.
A PROFILE FOR EVERY DANCER (PRO)
• Record your speed and volume changes as a song plays, then save them under a dancer's name.
• Press play and the app drives the speed and volume for you — hands-free — so you can watch the floor.
• See the whole routine on a speed chart and a volume chart.
• Share a profile with another dancer; it reattaches to the same song on their device.
• Profiles back up to iCloud and restore on your other devices.
VOLUME, FADES, AND BOOST
• Per-song volume, independent of your phone's volume — with a tap at 100%.
• Boost above 100% to lift a quiet recording; set your own volume range.
• Smooth fade-in and fade-out.
EXPORT YOUR ADJUSTED SONG (PRO)
Save the music at your chosen speed — following your saved profile's changing speed and volume — as an audio file. Pick the format (match the original, M4A, or WAV), see the size before you export, then play it anywhere.
ORGANIZE INTO FOLDERS
• Add a whole folder and the app keeps its subfolder structure — perfect for a class (Warm Up / Barre / Centre).
• Make your own folders, open them, and play straight through a folder.
• With Accompanist Pro, sync folders across iPhone and iPad over iCloud.
• Share a whole folder — songs and dancer profiles included — with another teacher (Pro); they tap your link to import it.
• Import from Files, or from Google Drive / Dropbox via Share ▸ Accompanist.
• Pull the audio out of a video (Pro).
• Keep playing in the background and over AirPlay.
MAKE IT YOURS
Pick a colour theme — Midnight, Rose, Ocean, Sunset, Forest, or Graphite.
ON YOUR APPLE WATCH
Control the music from your wrist — play/pause, speed, volume, and skip — so you can run the class without reaching for your phone.

What's New in Accompanist
1.7.3
July 16, 2026
This update is all about reliability — especially iCloud sync: • Your saved per-dancer speed & volume profiles now stay in sync across your devices. A profile you delete on one device no longer reappears on another. • Edits to a synced song or folder stick reliably instead of occasionally reverting. • Restoring or reinstalling on one device no longer risks removing songs from your other devices. • Additional stability improvements throughout. Happy dancing! Have a question or an idea? Reach us any time from Settings.
