Overview
Control video playback speed and add loop functionality for Instagram and YouTube - perfect for musicians and learners
Slow down. Loop. Learn it by ear. Sonora Looper turns any Instagram Reel or YouTube video into a practice tool. Slow a lick to half speed, loop the tricky four-bar phrase, and drill it until your fingers know it — without leaving the page. BUILT FOR MUSICIANS WHO LEARN BY WATCHING Instagram is overflowing with killer lessons, licks, and solos. The problem: you can't slow anything down, and you definitely can't loop a section. YouTube's native speeds jump in clunky steps (0.25×, 0.5×, 0.75×…) that are either too slow to feel or too fast to catch. Sonora Looper fixes both. WHAT YOU GET • Fine-grained speed control — 12 speeds from 30% to 200%, so you can find the exact tempo where the notes start to click. • Loop any section — drag the markers, hit play, and practice the hard bit on repeat. • Precision timeline zoom — zoom into a two-second window to place loop points exactly between the downbeats. • Your loops stick around — every loop is saved automatically. Come back to a video tomorrow and your loop points are right where you left them. • Keyboard shortcuts — Space to play/pause, [ and ] to set loop markers, L to toggle the loop, + and − to change speed. Hands on the guitar, not on the mouse. • Works on Instagram and YouTube — Reels, posts, videos, Shorts. Same controls everywhere. HOW IT WORKS 1. Install the extension and sign in. 2. Open any Instagram or YouTube video. 3. The Sonora Looper bar appears below the video. 4. Drag the markers, set your speed, and practice. No uploads. No downloads. No separate apps. WHY WE BUILT IT Sonora is a music school. We kept watching our students hit the same wall: they'd find an incredible lick in a 30-second Reel, try to learn it, and give up because there was no way to slow it down or drill the hard bit. So we built the tool we wanted them to have. PRIVACY Sonora Looper is free to use. You'll sign in with a Sonora account the first time you open the extension so we can verify your account and sync your settings. We don't sell your data, we don't track your browsing, and we only store what's needed to keep you signed in and your loops saved.
