live BPM - Beat Detector apk Description
★★★ What users said about liveBPM ★★★
JonLong:
"I used this at my last band practice and wasn't expecting it work. I couldn't believe how quickly and accurately it started tracking the bpm, even despite the very loud volume of our music."
PocketDrummer82:
"I am a professional drummer and I have been looking for something like this for years! Unless your playing with backing tracks or recording, Playing with a Click is too Mechanical. This app allows the tempo to breathe, and its like a little angel on your shoulder telling you the band is speeding up or slowing down. It is totally worth the money."
Chris Walther:
"I have used this about five gigs now and have quit using my previous tempo meter. I used both for a few gigs to test the accuracy. Dead on. Thanks! Every drummer should use this."
Jro125283:
"I am a professional drummer, and I am in love with this app. I have used it with numerous styles and various rhythms, and it works perfectly. I have also checked it with my metronome to ensure accuracy, and it's dead on."
Dj_Vee:
"Really this is one of the best bpm detectors I have ever seen. Works perfectly with very fast response."
Jonathan Friedman:
"This app is a great tool for performances, rehearsal and practice sessions. I am certain that working with this app will surely improve one's time and confidence. I highly recommend this app and I can't wait to see where Daniel takes this. A must have for any rhythm section player!"
★★★ Detailed Description ★★★
This is a tool designed for professional use:
- Well-tested beat detection engine guarantees trustworthiness
- Can handle most genres. Produces the best results under the following conditions:
-- The tempo is constant or almost constant
-- Strong impulses are defining the beat (drums, accentuated rhythm instruments like bass/guitar, etc.)
-- Time signature is 4/4, 3/4 or a multiple of either of these
- If the music meets these conditions liveBPM will produce results accurate to within 0.1 BPM
- Outside of these conditions results can become noisy
Further features:
- Five-minute tempo curve shows the development of tempo over time
- Advanced audio spectrum analysis via FFT
- More accessible and usually more accurate than BPM counters that function through tapping
- Relatively low battery drain thanks to high performance code and efficient algorithms
Using it as a musician:
- Use it as an objective tempo reference like a metronome
- It actually has several advantages over a metronome:
-- You are not tied to a click, giving you more flexibility
-- Helps you use tempo changes to enhance your musical expression
-- With blind tests, it can massively improve your timing confidence, which is especially important if you are in a tempo leading role (e.g. drummer)
- Discover how/whether your favorite artists use tempo changes
- Recommended for drum schools and the like
- Measure and improve your time-keeping skills
- Identify slowdowns and speedups while practicing your instrument
- Always be in control of the tempo during your live gigs and rehearsals
Note: You can check and improve the detection by clapping loud to the beat. Also, results can be improved by plugging in a suitable external microphone
