I will admit, AudioStretch is a very cool app. But, I would like to see a reverb and/or bass/treble adjuster added on to the bar where the pitch and speed adjusters are. Other than that, this is a great app Show more

I’ve been using this app to slow and pitch down some of my favorite songs and this is absolutely perfect. Not only that, but I can also use this to play the songs normally ad-free and I can loop it for as long as I want. I originally got it for the memes but I’ve been using it for about a year now and it hasn’t lost its value. Show more

One of my favorite apps I used to use to transcribe music was discontinued, and I could not reinstall it on my new iPad, so I was looking for a good transcribing app to replace it, and was not impressed with most other ones I found, until I found this app, the slow down works excellently, and does not distort pitch the way other inferior apps do that I found on the App Store. It’s easy to use and totally worth the $10 highly recommend for serious professionals trying to transcribe complicated music! Show more

Just to start, this app is awesome. It’s super fun to play with and it’s also a legitimately useful tool. I appreciate the attention to detail and the UX is very good… except: Sometimes when i return to the app, the track/video I had been working with in the timeline disappears, erasing all of the precise time markers and adjustments I had from my last session. Most of the time when the app is relaunched, this data persists, but every once and a while it will just be gone. This is especially annoying because there is no way to save a project or snapshot of your workspace in the app. Every time a track is loaded, it’s treated as a clean slate. Developer, I would appreciate a way to save the app’s configuration relative to a track in some way. Show more

Still the best app of its kind, but I have been asking them for years to make double tapping on the tempo set to 1X (which is helpful) rather than zero (which creates a terrible noise) Show more

Audio Stretch is quite an amazing app that makes the technical part of transcribing easy. The tempo and pitch controls are easily changed by whatever amount you desire (by either sliding them or scaling up/down. You can play a small part of a recording ‘by hand’ in the style of moving old r/r tape slightly, or even hold a sound to listen to a certain moment of your choice. Loops are easy to use. There is a keyboard picture which indicates the pitches/overtones that the app hears at a certain spot; this is helpful to verify what you are hearing (used by itself only visually, the results might seem a bit jumbled). Start/stop is very easy with a tap on the screen. One note: you must own (i.e. purchase) a copy of the music (via the itunes store, for example) you are working on for the app to access it. You may not just import a stream into the app. If you have any appreciation of musicians’ relationship to their recordings and copyright, you will understand why this is. Do not expect to use/manipulate/etc. streamed recordings for free. Show more

So, right of the bat. I love this app.

I often need to work on tunes in a different key than the recording, and this is my go-to helper app. The key can be changed without affecting the speed of the song, and the speed can be changed without affecting the key. Of course any vocals will sound a bit odd depending on how much the key is changed, but that is not a glitch with the app at all. You can also slow down the speed of a song to hear details or play along at a slower pace without changing the key, until you get familiar enough with the song to play at normal speed. I play lots of musical genres. One way that I use this: I find instrumental versions of fav rap songs and rewrite the lyrics. Sometimes I just need to backing tracks 5-10% slower so I can keep up with the bpm's. Highly recommended! Show more

If they added even a basic EQ to this, it would be much easier on the ear to hear notes more clearly and filter out cymbals and other noise. I see this as an oversight. It would be nice to see this fixed. The app does work well to slow down and also loop audio and video. Show more

Use it for editing. Works great!

I’m not paid to write this review, idk if there are other good reviews that were paid for out there but I kinda doubt it cuz the app is genuinly a good one. it costs $10, but if u often transpose music, this is a great investment. App has a great interface and it’s and it’s transposing software sounds great as well and maintains the timbre/formant of the sound well (which can be difficult at times) Although, one thing that I’d like to see as an added feature, if it doesn’t exist already, is the option to transpose audio by however many cents you want. The only intervals I can transpose by are 100 cent intervals, but some old recordings are tuned down a bit and in between half steps, which can make things a bit more difficult depending on how you transpose recordings.

I use this app every time I need to transcribe a song. It’s become such a part of my toolkit, and if any musician asked me my favorite apps for professional level musicians - this would be number 1. You can slow down, loops sections, transcribe, scrub, and the keyboard even shows you what notes are being played at any given time. Additionally you can import many formats, so your not stuck with your iTunes library, just airdrop yourself an .mp3 and start transcribing. I can’t speak highly enough of this app, best value in the AppStore. Fora serious musician, This app is reason enough to buy a smart phone. I’d give it ten stars if I could. Show more

This hit all the pain points I had while trying to play a song and learn it in stretches. Particularly brilliantly done is the ability to manual track back and forth without losing pitch. Love it, love it! Show more

add an equalizer

Wrong girl

Awesome. Works perfectly

This app is great I use with mp4juice and ifiles that’s how you do it

As the title says, this is hands down the best transcription tool out there on the market right now, not only on smart phones. However, I would love to see an equalizer feature added to boost certain hard to hear instruments/frequencies. It can sometimes be quite difficult to hear some instruments, due to how they were recorded. It could also be really beneficial to have it so you can isolate 1 or more frequencies to better hone in to the more buried instruments. ?? Show more

Great app when it works. The interface is super simple and intuitive. Sadly, it crashes sometimes but seems to be pretty stable recently.

Love it. Use it every day to learn and practice songs and guitar leads.
