PlaySections v3.0.2

5/25/2019

Playsections is an audio & video files player.
It can be use with AUM or Audiobus.
I bought this App because I really needed it. To earn my money I use to play movie soundtracks in coffees and restaurants here in Bangkok. I play this score following the video of the movie I am playing.
Before I had to use Auria Pro to do this.
Auria Pro is awesome sure, but using Auria means that I have to use also AUM or Audiobus or both sometimes (Midi) and a lot of plugins too.... Which means a lot of CPU usage.
With Playsections I can use AUM or Audiobus only and much more plugins!
Now, let's talk about Playsections
First you have to import a file from iTunes, the Camera Roll or Files. You can also use the open in feature from another App.
Then you will be able to rename and organize your files, create folders, add or edit the track infos (Title | Artist | Infos)
Once a file has been selected, you will able to add Markers (or edit them) to create your sections.
These sections can be locked once you will be ok with them.
For each section you can add a text. Lyrics for a song...

You can loop a section (Video & Audio), flip horizontaly a video.
and depending the type of file (audio or video) you are playing you will be able to change the volume, the speed (-50% to +200%) for both, audio & video files, the pitch (-12 to +12), remove the voice and use the 7 bands equalizer for the audio files.
The FX listed above are not so bad and can be really useful for the one who wants to use Playsection as a practice tool.

To conclude
Playsection is very cool, and study.
It can be the perfect tool for musicians, singers who need to practice their instruments.
This App is really usefull for me (thanks to the remote control access with Audiobus and AUM) but I think that it could grab much more peoples with a Midi implementation.
By this way Djay, Vdjay will be able to recall marked videos too.
Ah, I forgot one thing...
A Super App!!!

App Store description

PlaySections is an audio/video player that allows you to freely set marks and play back specific sections of your audio/video files. For example, while you're playing music, you can insert marks where the song transitions between the verse and the chorus, dividing the song into sections. Then you can pick a section from the generated section list and listen to any part of the song.

For each section title, you can enter multiple lines of text. As a result, in addition to verse/chorus labels, you can make notes about the chord progression, measure count, lyrics, and so on, offering a tool that you can use for many purposes.

PlaySections supports section and song loop playback, allowing you to listen to your favorite section on loop. It also features useful functionality including tempo/playback speed adjustment, pitch shift, vocal cancellation, 7 band equalizer, and flip video, making it a perfect app to use in instrument, vocal, or dance practice, or when playing music by ear.

Not only can it read files from the iOS Music Library, but by using the Share Extension/Open-in functionality, you can import files from other applications. For example, you can load a recording from the Voice Memo app that comes standard on the iPhone, letting you create and play back a section list for a song that you performed yourself. Even more, you can use it to study a new language, or to prepare meeting notes.
