Loopdrill vs BluePick

Loopdrill is a music practice player for anyone who learns songs by ear. Bring in a track from Files or Apple Music, slow it down without changing the key, mark the passage you are working on, and loop it until it sits under your fingers. Core playback tools are free. There are no ads and no subscription. SLOW DOWN WITHOUT CHANGING THE KEY Play anywhere from 25% to 200% speed while the pitch stays exactly where it was. Slow a solo down to hear every note, then bring it back up step by step. LOOP THE PART YOU ARE PRACTISING Set A and B on the waveform and the section repeats until you stop it. Drag either handle to adjust the range. Long-press a handle or the playhead to move it at one-tenth speed with a magnified view, so a loop can start exactly on the downbeat. SEE THE SONG The full waveform shows the shape of the track. Tap to jump, drag to scrub, and use bookmarks to mark verse, chorus, bridge and solo so you can get back to them instantly. TRANSPOSE IMPORTED FILES Shift the pitch from -12 to +12 semitones to match your tuning, a capo position or a more comfortable vocal range. A 10-band equalizer with presets such as Bass Boost and Vocal helps you bring the part you are copying to the front. APPLE MUSIC AND YOUR OWN FILES Play songs from your Apple Music library, or import MP3, AAC, WAV, AIFF and M4A files from the Files app. Speed control, loops and bookmarks work with both. Pitch shifting and EQ apply to imported files; Apple Music playback does not allow these two controls. IPHONE, IPAD AND MAC On iPad the library and player sit side by side. On Mac you get keyboard shortcuts for play, seek, loop and lyrics, and file import from Finder. One download covers all three, and the Apple Watch companion controls playback from your wrist. LYRICS PRACTICE PRO (OPTIONAL ONE-TIME PURCHASE) Follow timed lyrics, hold to select consecutive lines and loop a passage, and edit timestamps or the sync offset. Import multiple audio files or folders with matching LRC files. Try all Pro tools for 7 days using your own audio and LRC files that you have permission to use. Start the trial explicitly; there is no subscription or automatic payment. Your audio, lyrics and edits remain after expiry. Continue with an optional one-time Pro purchase at the displayed local price, or restore an existing purchase with the same Apple Account. Restoring does not restart the trial. Pro and trial availability depend on your App Store region. Pro includes practice tools, not a lyrics catalog or AI transcription. Who Loopdrill is for - Guitarists, bassists, pianists and drummers copying parts by ear - Singers working on phrasing and timing - Students preparing pieces for lessons and exams - Transcribers who need to hear every detail - Language learners who repeat audio in short sections Privacy: your audio, lyrics and bookmarks stay on your device. Usage statistics are shared only if you opt in.

Blue counts the practice you do alone. Most of your time with an instrument is spent on your own. Even with a teacher, the rest of the week is just you and the room, and nobody knows how much you put in. BluePick counts that time and shows it adding up. ■ A metronome and tuner that log for you Use the metronome or tuner and today's practice is saved on its own. Nothing to write down. Pick meter, rhythm, 16th notes, and tuplets, and set the metronome and beat volume separately. Turn on Briefing to have the song's sections called out, and save a count-in for each song. The tuner covers guitar, bass, ukulele, and classical instruments. ■ See the days add up Keep recordings, photos, and notes on your practice calendar. Your streak climbs the card book path, and every day you put in moves you up the practice tier steps. Miss a day and a streak saver protects it. Your practice universe turns each day you practiced into a star. ■ Run it from your wrist with Apple Watch Leave your phone on the music stand and control the metronome from your Apple Watch. Turn the Digital Crown to set the tempo and pick meter and rhythm on your wrist. Turn on beat vibration to feel the pulse even with earbuds in. ■ Coaching from Blue Record your playing and Blue listens, then points out what worked and the next step across rhythm, tone, and expression. Ask through chat, photos, or video too, and Blue remembers where you left off. A growth course guides you step by step until a whole song is finished. ■ Everything in the Tools tab Metronome and Briefing, tuner, drum beats, chord dictionary, and jams, all in one place. Fun has ear-training games and dungeon quests, and Together has local search. ■ Alone, then together Cheer on players of your instrument with four reactions: groove, technique, expression, and inspiration. Hang out in the Blue plaza, play together in live rooms, and open a meetup right from the community. ■ Lessons and studios near you Find private lessons, practice rooms, rehearsal studios, and shows on the map, nearest first, and browse band and team openings in one place. Put your videos and band history in your resume and send it straight through chat. ■ Made for iPhone Duo Screens are fitted to the iPhone Duo outer display. Playing alone, without being alone.
