Slow down YouTube videos and set looping segments so you can practice with LoopTube

What is Looptube?

I created Looptube as a tool to help musicians practice and learn pieces of music by ear by slowing them down and isolating loops of phrases to practice. This repetition allows users to master the most difficult of musical phrases. Great for piano, guitar, banjo, mandolin or any instrument! I hope the tool can also be useful beyond music, helping people practice different skills and loop entertaining portions of a youtube video.

My inspiration for this app comes from great tools I've discovered when learning music on guitar, trumpet, piano, banjo and mandolin. Amazing Slow Downer has some of the best functionality I've seen. Audacity has been good for isolating loops but takes a lot of effort. Tunepal is a great app for learning midi and abc tunes. The convenience of YouTube is what I wanted, where users can easily find a version of a tune and quickly load it in looptube.

Roadmap

I plan to continue adding features to looptube.

User can save loops
User can share loops
User can download to home screen on mobile (PWA)
User can paste in youtube ID or URL
User can push the loop back and forward
User can double or half loop length
User can embed the tool in their own site
User can search youtube within the app
User can see most popular loops
User can login and save videos and loops
User can load music from spotify
User can see audio waveform

Embed on your site

You can embed the tool on your side by adding it as an iFrame!
