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