Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Loop at 3.0 against Beat Maker Studio's 1.0. Loop also leads on ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (3 vs 1). Beat Maker Studio's advantage is update cadence (every 3 days vs fortnightly) and iOS requirement (16.0 vs 18.6). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
