Started Lapiloop to play with other musicians without having to get everyone in the same room.
Remote music · Coming soon
Play your part.
We make the video.
Lapiloop is the app for playing along with songs made with AI, recording your audio and video, and sending in your best takes. Codeshop mixes them with other musicians’ takes into a Playing for Change–style video, published on YouTube.
In four steps
How it works
Pick a song
The song list features songs made with Suno, open for contributions until a closing date.
Take your part
Guitar, bass, vocals or anything else. Your stem is muted in the mix, and you can loop a section to work on it.
Play and film
The app records your audio and video in sync with the track. It measures your latency so everything lands in place.
Send your best
Listen back, rate and send your best takes. We bring them together in a video published on YouTube, with your name in the credits.

Questions
FAQ
What is Lapiloop?
An app for playing your part over songs made with AI (Suno). You pick a song, your part and a section, you play, and the app records your audio and video in sync with the track.
You send in your best takes. Codeshop mixes them with other musicians’ takes and turns them into a Playing for Change–style video, published on YouTube.
How much does it cost?
Nothing. Lapiloop is free for musicians. There’s no subscription and no advertising.
Who owns my takes?
A take you don’t send stays on your device: it is never transmitted.
Before your first upload, you accept a short agreement: the audio and video you send are assigned to Lapiloop for editing, the video may be published on YouTube, your name appears in the credits and there are no royalties. We’ll ask for your consent again if the agreement changes.
Does it work on iPhone?
Yes. At launch, Lapiloop is a web app: it opens in Safari on iPhone, with nothing to install. A native iPhone app will follow, with more stable latency and background uploads.
What about Android?
The web app opens in Chrome on Android and on computers. A native Android app will come later: Android is coming soon. Join the waitlist and choose Android to be notified.
What gear do I need?
A phone or computer with a camera, earphones or headphones (any kind, Bluetooth included) and your instrument. For vocals, wearing a single earbud helps you sing in tune.
For an electric guitar or bass without an amp, plug in a USB-C audio interface (iRig, Focusrite…): the phone’s microphone would barely hear it.
What about latency?
The app measures it for you: it plays a few beeps, you tap along, and it calculates your offset. That offset is saved with each take, so everything can be lined up at mixing, even with Bluetooth earphones.
Run the test again when you change earphones or audio input.
Can I just practise?
Yes. Practice mode lets you play over the song without recording anything. You can also loop a section (a chorus, a bridge) as many times as you like.
What do you do with my data?
Only what’s needed: your Google account (name, email, photo), your profile, the takes you send and proof that you accepted the agreement. No advertising, no audience measurement tools, no reselling. Your public profile is off by default and you choose every field shown.
Who is behind Lapiloop?
Lapiloop is built by Codeshop, in Quebec. Takes are stored on a Codeshop server in Quebec.
