What it does

Loop by Zaweba starts simple. Choose a genre and a tempo, drag loops from the library onto a grid, press play, and it sounds like music. Every loop follows your song's tempo and key, so things fit together without any theory. Tap out your own riffs on a step grid.

When you want more, Studio mode is waiting: a piano roll, a synth, a drum machine, a sampler and 128 General MIDI instruments, a chord helper, recording, a mixer and effects with automation. Export to WAV, MP3, OGG, stems or MIDI. Every loop that comes with Loop is yours to use royalty-free.

Who it's for

  • Beginners who want to make a track without learning theory
  • Young people who fancy making beats for their videos
  • Hobbyists who want a free studio that grows with them

Good to know

  • Uses about 0.6 GB of memory with the General MIDI instruments loaded
  • Fine for arranging and mixing; live playing may feel slightly delayed (shared-mode audio, 10 to 200 ms buffer)

Private by design

  • Works offline, with no account and no adverts.
  • Checks zaweba.com once a day for a newer version, sending only the app's name.
  • Problem reports and feedback are sent only if you click Send.
Key features

Everything you need, nothing you don't.

Drag-and-drop grid

Drop loops onto tracks and bars, stretch them to repeat, and move or copy them around. Audio and MIDI files drop in too.

210 royalty-free loops

Drums, bass, chords, leads, FX and vocal sounds across seven genres, all made for Loop and yours to use.

Tempo and key lock

Loops move into your song's key and play at its tempo. Your own audio loops are time-stretched with their pitch kept.

Piano roll

Draw notes with velocity, quantise, see the song's scale highlighted and snap notes to it.

Chord helper

Pick a key and a mood, choose a progression, then add a bassline and melodies that fit.

Record audio and MIDI

Record from a microphone or line input, or play notes from a USB MIDI keyboard or your computer keys, with takes.

Loop

A song in four clicks

File > New song asks only the genre and the tempo, then gives you an eight-bar starter with drums, bass, chords and a lead. Preview any loop in time with the song before you drop it in. The riff editor lets you tap out your own patterns with any instrument and save them to My loops.

  • House, hip-hop, drum and bass, rock, ambient, pop and lo-fi
  • Click a loop to hear it in time and in key
  • Undo and redo for every edit
