Audio Deck vs CrateDive

Use Audio Deck to listen to your sketches, mixes, and any other audio you're working on. Organize your tracks into folders, arrange and sort them, and also tag tracks. If all you need is an audio player, those features are all free. With a subscription, your tracks will be uploaded to the cloud. Your audio library will be available across all your devices and will stay in sync. If your device gets full (as it does), you can clear the storage on your device. When you need to listen to those tracks, just download them again. The Audio Deck Cloud service keeps the originals for you. A subscription also allows you to share your tracks. If you are annoyed by using standard file-sharing apps to send music, this part is for you. In Audio Deck, you create a link, and you send that link to your friend. That link will open Audio Deck on your friend's device, and they can immediately download and listen to your music. If you give permission, they can also export and save the original file. Receiving and listening to a shared folder is free and works across different mobile devices, so your subscription makes collaboration wonderfully easy.

CRATE DIVE — AI SAMPLE DISCOVERY FOR PRODUCERS Drop any track. Crate Dive's AI finds every sample-worthy moment — loops, breaks, vocal chops, melodic hooks, transitions — in seconds. Cut a 20-minute crate dig down to 3. Built for hip-hop beatmakers, lo-fi producers, trap heads, EDM producers, DJs, and remixers who'd rather make beats than scrub waveforms. 3D WAVEFORM (NEW IN 2.0) A live 3D waveform that moves with the music. Pick a loop and the view frames it. Pinch to zoom, tap to seek, or switch back to 2D. PADS (NEW IN 2.0) Play any loop as 16, 8 or 4 chops. Flow mode keeps the loop running while you jump around; Chop mode plays each pad once. Tap a pad to drag its start and end, snapped to 1/16 notes or free. AI LOOP RANKING The algorithm scores every loop on boundary seamlessness, harmonic richness, and beat alignment — then surfaces the top 5, starting on the downbeat. The flip-ready ones first. BPM & KEY DETECTION 95%+ accurate BPM finder. Full key and scale detection. Manually adjust either with one tap. Perfect for harmonic mixing and matching samples to your project. SAMPLE POINT DETECTION AI marks every drum break, melodic hook, vocal chop, riser, build, and drop. Each detection comes with a reason tag so you know why it was flagged and a confidence score from 60–100%. STEM SEPARATION (PRO) Studio-grade stem splitter. Isolate vocals, drums, bass, and other instruments in one tap. Mute and solo stems on the pads, and see where each one comes in on its own waveform. Build acapellas, drumless beats, and instrumental versions instantly. WAV EXPORT (PRO) Export any loop, stem, or the full track as clean WAV files. Drag straight into FL Studio, Ableton, Logic, MPC, or any DAW or sampler. AI SAMPLE DESCRIPTIONS (PRO) Plain-English context for every detection: "Warm trumpet loop, 4 bars, ~88 BPM, ideal for boom-bap flips." No more guessing what you grabbed. FOUR THEMES Glacier, Classic, Ember and Ruby. Each one recolors the waveform and the app icon. PRIVACY FIRST Audio is processed in memory and discarded immediately. No account required. No tracking. Your crates stay yours. FREE TO START Three analyses per day, free, no card required. Pro is $9.99/month with a 7-day free trial — unlimited analysis, stem separation, WAV export, and AI sample descriptions. PERFECT FOR • Hip-hop and boom-bap beatmakers • Lo-fi producers chasing seamless loops • Trap producers hunting vocal chops and 808s • EDM producers grabbing risers, builds, and drops • DJs and remixers searching for breakbeats and acapellas • Bedroom producers using FL Studio, Ableton, Logic, or any DAW Crate Dive: find the gold in any track.
