What is LoopTube?

A tool built to help musicians — and anyone else — practice by looping and slowing down YouTube videos.

Updated July 2026

Practice better. Play slower. Learn faster.

LoopTube started as a tool to help musicians practice and learn pieces of music by ear — slowing them down and isolating loops of phrases to practice. This repetition helps you master even the most difficult musical phrases. Great for piano, guitar, banjo, mandolin, or any instrument.

It's useful beyond music too — practicing a language, or looping any part of a YouTube video for sports training, is just as easy. Today, over 15,000 people use LoopTube every month.

The inspiration came from great tools discovered while learning guitar, trumpet, piano, banjo, and mandolin. Amazing Slow Downer has some of the best functionality out there. Audacity is good for isolating loops but takes real effort to set up. Tunepal is great for learning MIDI and ABC tunes. What LoopTube adds is YouTube's convenience — find a version of a tune and load it straight into the YouTube looper.
