Description

A tap tempo and BPM delay time/LFO rate calculator all rolled into one handy iOS application. Invaluable for all musicians, DJ's, producers and sound engineers.

Want to know the tempo of a song? Tap your finger on the big friendly tap button in time with the music and the tempo will display at the top. Got a delay effect on your pedal/synth/effects rack? Accurate delay times are already on the screen for you to use. Got a LFO parameter on your effect or synth patch? The LFO rates are also on screen to set the effect in time with the track.

If you already know the BPM use the new keypad to enter the BPM to get the LFO and delay times.

Features:
- Tap in time with any music to find the tempo, correct delay times and LFO frequencies.
- Hit the mode button to change the delay and LFO display to dotted or triplet time
- BPM can be adjusted manually if you already know the tempo and just need the delay/LFO rates.
- Simple easy to use interface.
- Enter BPM directly via keypad
- New meters for taps taken, tap timing and tap accuracy

Nice App.

This no-frills app is very useful for musicians who wish to work out the timing of a piece, with a view to setting delay-time parameters or LFO sweep timing etc (the software calculates and displays these automatically). The main improvement that I would like to see is the option to display AVERAGE BPM over a time period. This would iron out out any inaccuracy due to vagaries in the tapping skills of the user, and would also allow a more accurate assessment of BPM in a piece of music that had been digitised from analogue tape where the speed can fluctuate slightly over time.

Simple and Great little app!

Great friendly support and a great little app to boot! Does dotted 8th notes if you tape the mode button. Might be nice to key in the delay time with a keypad or have more lfo times. One more suggestion is to have a 'half' or 'double' the bpm button but maybe it’s just me who would find this useful? Great app, great price, what are you waiting for? This is perfect for all your old rack gear needs :)
UPDATE April 10: I'm hoping for an update, IE direct tempo input with a keypad. Brilliant app, hasn't been updated in a loong while (2008?!). LOVE the LFO readout. Any chance of compatibility for iPad or a tempo calculator that listens to a beat?

Cool BPM Application.

This is just what I need for setting the delay times for the effects units during performances of a live band.
It's smart because when you stop tapping, it holds the 'average' figure so you can read them, start tapping again and it resets automatically and you get the new timings straight away.
It also gives the double and half timings as well (saving mental arithmetic)
