The Loop+ Player now runs your audio tracks as well, the Library filters by style and tempo, and one full lesson is open to everyone. Here is everything that changed.
A brighter look
The entire interface has been redesigned with a lighter, cleaner look and a responsive layout that’s easy to read wherever you’re learning—at your desktop, on a tablet, or with your phone on a stand next to your guitar.
Loop+ Player — now for audio as well
The Loop+ Player you know from the lesson videos now drives the audio tracks, too. Set A and B by click or drag, and slow the tempo down without changing the pitch. It all happens on the same page — nothing to download, nothing to install.
A free lesson to try
Not sure the Academy is the right fit for you? A full lesson is now free to watch on the site: the rhythm guitar part and the melody of “Aura Lee” better known as “Love Me Tender” in Gypsy jazz style.
A smarter Lesson Library
Real-time search narrows the Library as you type. Three filters do the rest:
- Level — Basic, Intermediate, Advanced & Extras
- Style — new, so you can stay in one corner of the repertoire
- Tempo — a BPM slider for the range you want to work in
Too many options and no idea where to start? Hit “Surprise Me” and the Academy picks a lesson for you that matches the filters you have set.
Two short how-to videos
Two short videos walk you through the Library filters and Loop+ Player, so you can get the most out of both tools. They live on the “Getting started” page, so you can come back to them any time.
Dashboard and account
One click on your dashboard takes you back to the lesson you watched last. Account details, payment method and subscription are now grouped where you would expect them.
Have fun with the new academy
Along with the new site we have updated our Terms and Conditions. The changes reflect the new website and current legal requirements.
Take a look around, try the new player, and get back to practising.
