A rehearsal audio tool that analyzes tempos and beat positions, then crossfades marching-band tracks on the beat instead of cutting at arbitrary points.

Landing page captured for the 2026-09-10 issue.

Field notes

Drillband analyzes imported audio for tempo and beat position, then uses that information to transition between tracks at the next beat and toward a rhythmically similar section. Its playback modes include sequential, uniform-random, and seamless repeat, with skip and previous controls designed to avoid mid-count cuts. The free tier stores three tracks locally without an account; the listed Pro tier adds a 200MB cloud library, browser playback, and synchronization across up to five devices.
