Folder Looper vs VisualGIG

Folder Looper is a focused audio player for people who keep their audio organized in folders. Choose a folder from the Files app and Folder Looper continuously plays the supported audio files inside, without requiring a music library, playlist setup, or account. It is built for musicians, worship teams, performers, teachers, language learners, audiobook listeners, and anyone who wants quick access to organized audio files in iCloud Drive or other Files locations. Version 2.0 adds a new Practice mode alongside the folder player. Move the current song into Practice, or choose a single audio file, then slow it down, speed it up, transpose it, repeat it, and view detected key and tempo details as a starting point for rehearsal. Folder Looper can also display embedded song artwork when available, show Now Playing information, support background playback, and let you browse or reshuffle the current play order at any time. Features: • Play audio files directly from folders in the Files app • Supports MP3, WAV, AAC, AIF, AIFF, CAF, and M4A formats • Continuous playback through all supported files in a folder • Optional shuffle mode • Browse the play order, jump to any song, and reshuffle anytime • Background audio and remote playback controls • Displays embedded song artwork when available • Shows current song, folder, playback time, song count, key, and tempo details • Remembers your selected folder between app launches • Smart filename sorting for numbered tracks • Works with iCloud Drive and other Files-accessible locations Practice Features: • Choose a single song for focused practice • Bring the current Player song into Practice • Detect key and tempo for supported audio files • Transpose from one key to another • Adjust playback speed from 50% to 150% • Repeat the practice song continuously • Reset detected values, key changes, and speed changes without removing the song Key and tempo detection are helpful estimates based on the audio signal. Results may vary depending on recording quality, arrangement, intros, outros, modulations, live recordings, and layered instruments. Folder Looper keeps the workflow simple: pick a folder, press play, or switch into Practice when it is time to work on one song more closely.

Your whole set, one tap away. VisualGIG turns your iPhone into a cue player for live performance. Build your sets at home, walk in, hit Live — and every track you need is one tap from the front of house. No accounts. No streaming. No waiting on a signal that isn't there. LIVE MODE IS A DIFFERENT SCREEN Because a stage is not a desk. Enter Live and the app strips down to what matters: your pads, what's playing, and the clock. Nothing to edit, nothing to navigate, nothing to tap by accident. • The screen never sleeps — no black display in the middle of a song • Pads keep the exact positions they had while you built the set, so your muscle memory still works • The next cue is marked NEXT, so you know where your thumb goes before you need it • A live timecode runs inside the playing pad and in the Now Playing panel • Getting out takes a deliberate one-second hold — a bumped screen can't drop you out mid-show And before you go live, VisualGIG reminds you to switch on airplane mode. One incoming call is all it takes to duck your audio in front of a room. Tell it you know what you're doing and it will never ask again. BUILT TO FIRE INSTANTLY Every audio file in your set is opened, decoded and armed the moment you open it — not when you press the pad. The engine runs on a short buffer, so the sound starts when your finger lands, not a beat later. Your files are copied into the app and played from the device. Airplane mode, dead venue Wi-Fi, no bars in the basement: none of it reaches your show. BUILDING A SET • Create a set for each night — name it, note the venue, give it a colour • Add a pad per cue, drop in the audio, label it, colour it • Import WAV, AIFF, MP3 or M4A straight from Files, iCloud Drive or anywhere else the picker reaches • Audition anything before you commit it to a pad • Tap to edit a pad, hold to remove it • Transport bar with scrub position, elapsed and remaining time, pause and stop • Pause holds your place; hitting play again picks up instantly Everything above is included in the app at no cost. No account, no trial timer. VISUALGIG PRO — OPTIONAL SUBSCRIPTION VisualGIG PRO is an auto-renewing subscription that unlocks additional features.

Wedding and event DJs. Solo players with backing tracks. Anyone who has ever watched a laptop decide to update itself twenty minutes before doors. WHAT IT DOESN'T DO One cue at a time. VisualGIG plays a single pad, and starting the next one stops the last — it's a cue player, not a mixer. There's no crossfade, no layering, no MIDI, and nothing syncs to the cloud. Your sets live on your device. That's on purpose. Fewer things to go wrong at 9pm.
