Turn difficult passages into focused, repeatable practice. Import audio from Files, your downloaded music library, or videos in Photos. Mark the exact start and end of a passage, save it as a named section, and loop it until the timing feels natural. Practice with precision: • Build A/B loops for intros, verses, choruses, solos, bridges, and tricky phrases. • Slow down or speed up playback without changing pitch. • Shape each track with a five-band equalizer and save its tone. • Fine-tune loop points on a zoomed waveform with precision controls. • Jump between saved sections to keep your practice session moving. • Share a full track or selected section when you need feedback. Designed for guitarists, pianists, drummers, vocalists, producers, teachers, and anyone learning music by ear. Your practice data stays on your device. No account, feed, or distractions. Import a track, isolate the hard part, and start practicing with Loopist.
