I use AB Loop and Anytune HQ... They both work fine.

Fwiw I do find it slightly amusing hearing people complain about sound quality etc on these things. I spent so much time destroying my records by lifting the needle or putting my finger on the turntable to slow it down. It is just SUCH a luxury having the thing just loop a section!

Amplitube has loop/slow down functionality. It's pretty basic but it works.

Not a complaint, just an observation.

That's insane that a phone could do this. What's next? An app that will play the thing for us! I'm sure it's possible even now.

I don't even have ASD installed anymore.
Amazing Slow Downer is the only one I've used. It does everything I want it to do.

No dig intended, that stuff really doesn't bother me with any of the apps.
Mostly just being a jackass! : )

No offence taken. Just trying to provide the op with an opinion. Besides like you I'm old enough to have played many of 45's at 33.

How about just isolating the track & using tempo change on a DAW app ...
Same thing right?

I believe Amazing Slowdowner is originally a Windows app. There is also Transcribe which many here like.

I've done that in the free app Audacity but it was not as straight forward as a dedicated app.

Maybe a dumb question but can I play along with the Amazing Slow downer on an Ipod touch through one of those Irig Amplitude things?

Thanks,

Mike

The Peavey app will let you Multitask (yes). GarageBand won't.
