Riffs and licks need short, precise loops
Include enough sound before A to hear the attack and enough before B to hear the landing. Use the 0.1-second controls to remove an unwanted pickup or clipped ending.
Guitar practice guide
Loop Guitar Riffs and Solos from YouTube
Keep one precise guitar passage returning while you listen, reset your hands, and build reliable repetitions.
Quick answer
Paste an embeddable guitar lesson or performance, set A and B around one riff, lick, chord change, or short solo passage, fine-tune the boundaries, and select a slower rate the player actually reports. Add Count-in, Rest, or Gradual speed-up only when it supports the exercise.
Build a guitar practice loop
- 1
Choose a lesson or performance
Paste a valid YouTube ID or supported URL for an embeddable, fixed-duration guitar source.
- 2
Mark one guitar problem
Set A and B around a riff, lick, chord change, or short solo passage.
- 3
Fine-tune range and speed
Adjust either boundary in 0.1-second steps and choose only a slower rate reported by the player.
- 4
Add support, then save or share
Use Count-in, Rest, or Gradual speed-up when useful, then save locally or copy the supported practice state.
Use Rest to reset chord shapes
A short 0–5 second Rest, in 0.5-second steps, can give the fretting hand time to release and prepare the next change before the source repeats.
Repeat for ear work without invented tabs
Loop one phrase, listen for pitch and rhythm, and find it on the instrument. LoopVideo repeats the source; it does not extract tablature or identify notes.
Build speed through available steps
Start at a comfortable player-reported rate. Gradual speed-up can move one available rate every two loops until 1x, but cannot create unsupported tempo steps.
The loop supports practice; it does not replace guitar tools
LoopVideo does not extract tablature, tune a guitar, record practice, or provide a continuous metronome. Its optional click plays only during a selected count-in. Videos may fail when embedding is disabled, or when they are age-restricted, private, removed, or otherwise unavailable. Live streams are unsupported because they have no fixed duration. Returning to A may have a small seek delay. Speeds and captions differ by video. Saved loops and history stay in the current browser. Background playback and lock-screen playback are unsupported in LoopVideo.
Frequently asked questions
- Can LoopVideo create guitar tabs?
- No. It repeats the original video and does not identify notes, chords, or tablature.
- How precisely can I adjust a riff?
- The A and B fine-tune controls move in 0.1-second steps while keeping a valid loop range.
- Is there a metronome during the riff?
- No. The click is available only during the selected 0–3 second count-in before returning to A.
- Can the riff speed up automatically?
- Gradual speed-up advances one available player-reported rate every two loops until 1x.
- Where is a saved guitar loop stored?
- Saved loops and history stay in the current browser. Use Copy link to move supported practice state yourself.
