Practice Player: Slow Down
Music Speed & Pitch Changer
Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
New: an equalizer and a waveform view for your own files, plus a theme for each playlist.
Slow down any song and loop the hard part until you've got it.
Works with your Apple Music songs, streamed or downloaded. On your own files (imports, recordings, and downloaded purchases) you can also change pitch and pan.

Shape the sound of your own files with the new equalizer, and see their waveform behind the slider.
Equalizer:
Boost the bass or the vocals so you can hear your part. On the Controls tab, tap Edit on the Equalizer row, under Metronome Count-In. Pick a preset like Bass, Vocals or Speech, or drag the curve yourself. Tap + to save your own preset. Hold to Compare turns the equalizer off while you hold it, so you can hear the difference. Each song keeps its own equalizer settings, like its speed and pitch. It works on your own files: imports, recordings and downloaded purchases.
Waveform:
Your own files now show their waveform behind the playback slider. The part inside your loop is bright green.
Count-in:
Each count-in number now bounces in on its click, and the phone vibrates gently with it. On the downbeat, the vibration is stronger and a circle spreads out from the number. Then the song starts right on the beat, with no pause, over AirPlay and Bluetooth too. With Reduce Motion on, the numbers fade in instead.
A theme for each playlist:
Tap a playlist's name and pick a theme from the row above the keyboard. The playlist takes that background, and so does the player when you open a song from it. Photo themes need iOS 26.
Also in this update:
• The metronome settings stay hidden until you turn on Metronome Count-In
• The player's buttons and menus vibrate more gently, and opening a song gives the same light vibration
• The playback slider moves smoothly instead of in small steps
• In-app wording is corrected in 24 languages
Fixes:
• Apple Music songs start right after the count-in, with no loading wheel
• A loop that ends at the end of an Apple Music song now counts in on every repeat
• On Apple Music songs, the slider no longer stays at 0:00 for a few seconds on the first play
• With Apple Music songs, the slider keeps moving while your finger is on the points list or a control
• On iOS 26, a sideways swipe on an empty part of the player no longer goes back to the song list. Use the back arrow instead.
• Importing a file whose name is already in use now adds "(2)" to its name
