Guitarium vs LoopBeat

Guitarium is your guitar gym. A simple way to practice the parts of playing that usually take the most time to build: knowing the fretboard, hearing intervals, understanding triads and modes, and getting more comfortable with the instrument. The idea is simple: practice in short, focused sessions whenever you have a few minutes. On the couch, on the train, in a queue, between meetings. Exercises don't need a guitar or an internet connection, so you can keep making progress even when you don't have time for a full practice session. Practice a little, get a lot better: Short drills help you work on one thing at a time, without having to sit down for an hour. Practice whenever you have the time: Sessions run from 5 to 60 minutes, so even a short commute can become useful practice Everything works offline, with no signal, account or sign-up required Pause a session and come back to it later, or start something new whenever you have a few minutes For ear training, all you need is a pair of headphones See how you're doing: Guitarium keeps track of your practice without getting in the way. Earn XP and build daily streaks as you practice Use the skill radar to see what's coming along and what could use more attention Your progress stays on your device and in your private iCloud More tools for your practice: Guitarium also includes the everyday tools you need when you're actually playing: Tuner: quick, accurate tuning that listens to your strings Metronome: keep your timing steady with flexible tempo and accent controls Chord Library: clear, easy-to-read diagrams for common chord shapes Chord Analyzer: build a shape on the fretboard and Guitarium will tell you what chord it is Scales: see scales and modes across the entire neck Songs: load Guitar Pro tabs and play along with a scrolling cursor Free and premium: You can use the tuner, metronome, chord library, chord analyzer, scales and all drills for free. You also get one 5-minute training session each day, which resets every morning. If you want to practice more, Guitarium Premium removes the daily limit and gives you a few extra ways to make your practice more personal. Smart Sessions can build a session around the areas you need to work on, Explore mode lets you jump straight into any unlocked drill, and full song practice gives you control over tempo, transposition, section looping and the track mixer.

WHY LOOPBEAT • Real drum kits, studio-grade sound Complete sample sets covering pop, rock, punk, R&B, reggae, folk and Djembe. Every instrument is sampled with velocity layers, so soft and hard hits genuinely differ. • A large song library, play instantly Every style has preset songs with a full structure: Intro, Loops 1–4, Fills, Variation, EndFill. Tap any section to switch seamlessly — the music never stops. • NEW: Re-arrange loops into a brand-new song Pick LOOP sections from any song in the library and reorder, repeat or trim them to build a new track out of different styles. Insert fills every N bars, add a variation, or start a fresh LOOP at any line — then set the drum kit and title. One tap exports it as a regular LoopBeat song. Works on mobile and in the desktop Manager. • Real-time time-signature changes Change tempo and time signature while playing: 3/4, 4/4 and 6/8 on the fly, with smooth transitions and no stutter. Dial in any BPM and the kit stays steady. • Powerful MIDI section editing A professional piano roll edits every section note by note: add, delete and drag notes, adjust velocity and length, copy and paste sections. Touch-optimised, and you can import external MIDI files as sections. • 5-band EQ + plate reverb A five-band biquad EQ shapes your kit from low-end weight to high-end air, while the Dattorro plate reverb creates genuine live-room space — all adjustable in real time. • Bluetooth pedal, hands free Switch sections, trigger fills, start and stop playback, and control recording and looping — all with your feet. Sing without reaching for the screen. • Jam pads, play freely Touch pads with a jam mode: tap to trigger real drum sounds, with mute, lock and edit functions. Multi-touch lets you play with both hands. • NEW: LOOP audio recording — layer your ideas into a song on the spot Plug in a microphone or instrument and record vocals, guitar or percussion straight into a loop. Start, stop and overdub are all quantised to the bar line, so you punch in right on the beat. Layer up to 4 tracks of up to 32 seconds each with an independent playback level, and a stopped track is kept ready to resume. An input level meter and built-in tuner let you check level and pitch as soon as you plug in. • Sampler, expand it your way FLAC sample support lets you import your own samples and build custom kits. The desktop Manager (Mac/Windows) transfers samples over Wi-Fi.
