Looking for a professional and user-friendly solution to use multitracks in your church services? PRIME, the app developed by Loop Community, has become one of the most popular options among worship musicians. With an intuitive interface, advanced playback controls, and seamless integration with multitracks, PRIME is designed to make live worship easier and more impactful—without needing complex hardware. In this article, we’ll explore everything you need to know about PRIME and how to use it to enhance your worship experience.

What is PRIME?

PRIME is a free app created by Loop Community, specifically designed for churches that use multitracks (individual instrument tracks) during worship. It’s available for iOS (iPad and iPhone) and Mac, allowing worship teams to play tracks with full control and flexibility during live services.

It’s a true all-in-one solution, requiring no additional software or complicated setup. Its main goal is to allow worship leaders and musicians to run multitracks professionally with minimal learning curve.

Key Features

• Individual multitracks: Play separate instrument tracks (drums, bass, pads, guitars, etc.) with individual volume control.
• MIDI mapping & remote control: Compatible with MIDI controllers, so you can trigger sections with your instrument or foot pedal.
• Change key & tempo on the fly: Adjust the key or speed of the song in real time without losing audio quality.
• Section-based arrangement: Organize songs into sections (intro, verse, chorus, etc.) and jump between them easily.
• Smooth transitions: Play songs back-to-back seamlessly—perfect for full worship sets.
• Loop sections live: Repeat any section as needed during worship.
• Guides and click in multiple languages: Available in English and Spanish.

Installation and System Requirements

• iOS (iPad or iPhone): Available on the App Store. Requires iOS 11 or later.
• Mac (macOS): Available from Loop Community’s official website.
• Android & Windows: Not currently supported.

For the best experience, we recommend using a high-capacity iPad with multichannel audio output (e.g. via iConnectAudio or Focusrite interface).

Interface and Parameters

PRIME’s interface is built for simplicity and live performance:

• Track view: Shows each track visually, with faders for independent volume control.
• Arrangement mode: Customize the song flow to match your band’s needs.
• Lyrics & notes: Add chords or lyrics visible for the team.
• Playback modes: Choose between continuous, per-song, or custom playback.
• Cloud sync: Automatically downloads your Loop Community multitracks when you log in.

Uses and Tips

• Perfect for small to mid-sized churches without a full live band each Sunday.
• Use PRIME with headphones and a splitter cable to send the guide to musicians and the mix to the audience.
• If using an audio interface, you can route each instrument to a separate mixer channel.
• Great for rehearsals: Solo certain tracks or practice only with guide/click.
• Use the Loop feature to repeat a chorus or section live if the worship moment calls for it.
