Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: LIVE Sidestage at none against SoundEffect App's 4. LIVE Sidestage also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 2 days vs fortnightly). SoundEffect App's advantage is review sentiment (75% vs 57%). On price, monetization model, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
