Coming soon for Windows and macOS

LickLaboratory

Hear the hard parts. Master them at your pace.

LickLaboratory turns any recording into a focused practice session. Slow it down without changing pitch, isolate instruments, loop the exact phrase, match the key, and record yourself—all without changing the original song.

Built for real practice sessions

Spend less time fighting the track—and more time learning it.

The current Alpha brings the listening, repetition, sound-shaping, recording, and organization tools musicians need into one focused Windows and macOS application.

01

Hear every note at your pace

Slow a song to 20% or push it to 200% while preserving pitch, so fast runs become clear without sounding out of tune.

02

Practice in the right key

Transpose by semitones, then fine-tune by cents to match your instrument, voice, or a recording that is slightly off concert pitch.

03

Master the phrase—not the whole song

Build precise A/B loops and nudge either boundary down to 10 milliseconds until the repetition starts and ends exactly where you need it.

04

Find the moment fast

See the waveform, scrub in either direction, zoom in, and follow the playhead instead of guessing where a passage begins.

05

Turn a full mix into your practice band

Separate vocals, drums, bass, guitar, piano, and other parts locally, then mute, solo, pan, and balance the lanes around what you are learning.

06

Record without leaving the session

Create a new song or capture a synchronized audio lane alongside the track, then listen back against the same speed and pitch context.

07

Make the important part stand out

Shape playback with seven-band EQ, volume, pan, mute, solo, stereo metering, normalization, and a master level that follows you.

08

Pick up where you stopped

Keep playlists, per-track practice state, saved layouts, preferences, and compact views ready for the next session.

09

Keep your hands on your instrument

Map keyboard shortcuts or use compatible MIDI, HUI, and MCU hardware for transport control without reaching for the mouse.

10

Bring the music you already own

Open MP3, WAV, WMA, Ogg Vorbis, FLAC, AAC, and M4A files, then export useful practice loops as WAV, AIFF, or Ogg.

11

Adapt the workspace to the way you practice

Move and resize cards, save layouts, customize stem colors and EQ defaults, or switch to a compact view when screen space matters.

12

Keep your music private

Playback, recording, stem creation, and application state stay on your computer. The current Alpha has no cloud audio-processing path or application telemetry.

A clear path from focused playback to deep practice

Start with the essentials. Move up when the song asks for more.
