About GigShed: Stems, Chords & Key

GigShed turns any recording you already own into a complete practice studio. Split a song into drums, bass, vocals, and "other," then mute or solo any part, slow it down, change the key, loop sections and build a chords-and-lyrics chart to learn it — all offline on your device. WHY GIGSHED Most tools that do this rent themselves to you by the month and ship your music off to a server. Or they have only one or two of these practice tools. GigShed does the whole practice loop in one app, on your iPhone or iPad, for a single price — no upload limits, no server lag, nothing to sign up for. It works on a plane or at your Grandpaw's with bad Wi-Fi. SEPARATE & MIX • One tap (and a couple minutes of waiting) splits any song into four stems: drums, bass, vocals, and everything else. • Mute, solo, and set the volume of each part. • Kill the vocals to sing it yourself, solo the bass to lock in a line, or drop the drums to play along. • Finally hear the guitar part the vocal was masking. CHANGE KEY & SPEED • Move the key up or down in semitones to fit your voice. • Raise the key on a song recorded in Eb so you don't have to de-tune your guitar • Slow a tricky passage to a crawl — or speed it up — with no "chipmunk" or "underwater" artifacts. • Key and speed are independent and change in real time. LOOP & DRILL • Loop any section with A/B markers that snap to bars and beats. • "Loop 8 bars" in one tap, add a beat-locked metronome and a count-in, and drill it until it's muscle memory. CHORD & LYRIC CHARTS • GigShed listens to the song and builds a chords-over-lyrics chart in standard ChordPro. • Paste the real lyrics for the most accurate result, or let it transcribe automatically (but really, just paste the official lyrics - the transcription is trained on speech so it kind of sucks for sung vocals but is sometimes better than typing from scratch). • Fix chords the smart way: tap a chord to loop and solo its exact moment, check it by ear, and correct it on the spot. TAKE IT ANYWHERE • Export your processed mix to an audio file, with your key, speed, and mix baked in. • Export the chart as ChordPro text or a print-ready PDF for your music stand. • Send it straight to GigScroll, the companion teleprompter app, for the stage. FREE TO START Every feature works free on up to 5 songs — nothing is crippled. Unlock unlimited songs with a single one-time purchase. No subscription, ever. BRING YOUR OWN MUSIC GigShed works on audio files you already own — purchased downloads, import songs you purchased from iTunes/Apple Music, CD rips, or your own recordings. There's no streaming or built-in downloader. Woodshed it in GigShed. Perform it in GigScroll.

What’s new

Version 1.0.1 · Updated July 14, 2026

Stem persistence: Separated stems are no longer removed by iOS when your iPhone runs low on storage, and if they're ever missing, GigShed explains why and rebuilds them in one tap. Playback improvements: plays on silent, keeps going when your screen locks (with lock-screen controls), recovers gracefully from calls and headphone disconnects, and clearly explains any audio problems instead of staying mysteriously quiet.
