User Reviews

Reviewers praise mimiCopy for precise tempo control, looping, and clear sound, making practice and transcription easier. Key strengths include importing owned tracks from iTunes/Dropbox and independent tempo/pitch changes. Major drawbacks center on licensing/DRM barriers that block many tracks, lack of export functionality, and occasional playback glitches. Overall, it's a valuable tool for musicians, but licensing and export limitations limit its universality.
Pros
  • Looping and multiple-section markers with tempo control for practice and transcription
  • Easy import of songs from iTunes/Dropbox and other music you own
  • High-quality sound even at slow speeds with independent tempo and pitch changes
  • Effective for rehearsals and learning by ear, with quick navigation between parts
Cons
  • DRM/protected content prevents loading many tracks and licensing limits restrict usage of songs you don't own
  • No export or save-as function for altered tracks
  • Occasional playback stability issues (e.g., playback stopping mid-song)

I am a pianist. I play very difficult music. If not for this app, I would struggle to play complicated ornaments. It helps me to play correct rhythms. I use it on a daily basis and could not live without it. A life changer.

I recommend this app for those learning Hebrew Torah. There are some excellent voice recordings available, but they’re too fast for beginners. I started listening with Mimi Copy at 50% tempo, moved up to 80%, and now I can listen and comprehend at 100%.

Perfect for transcribing on the go. You can use any music that you own and loop, slow down (up to 50%) I use this for transcribing solos and songs often and I have never had an issue.
