Description:

Experience heightened time awareness with liveBPM, the ultimate tempo monitoring tool for drummers, bands, and DJs. Detecting music and beats through its microphone, this app provides a continuous display of the current tempo in beats per minute (BPM). Combining user-friendly functionality with high-quality results and energy efficiency, liveBPM is a must-have for any music enthusiast.

<h3>What Users are Saying about liveBPM</h3>

<ul>
 <li>
 John Walden, freelance musician and music technology journalist at musicappblog.com:
 <blockquote>"There are three obvious applications for the app. First, it would make a brilliant practice tool for a drummer, allowing them to monitor just how good they are at keeping a steady tempo without the aid of a click track to guide them. Second, sat beside your kit during a performance, it would allow you to judge just how well you are hitting the ideal tempo for each song in your set. It’s not just drummers that can benefit from liveBPM as the third use is in mapping the tempo – and any tempo changes – in commercial recordings. While this is useful for drummers, it is instructional for almost any musician."</blockquote>

 JonLong:
 <blockquote>"I used this at my last band practice and wasn't expecting it to work. I couldn't believe how quickly and accurately it started tracking the bpm, even despite the very loud volume of our music."</blockquote>
 </li>
 <li>
 PocketDrummer82:
 <blockquote>"I am a professional drummer and I have been looking for something like this for years! Unless you're playing with backing tracks or recording, playing with a click is too mechanical. This app allows the tempo to breathe, and it's like a little angel on your shoulder telling you the band is speeding up or slowing down. It is totally worth the money."</blockquote>
 </li>
 <li>
 Chris Walther:
 <blockquote>"I have used this for 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."</blockquote>
 </li>

 magrec:
 <blockquote>"This has been very helpful for recording. Thanks!"</blockquote>

<h3>Detailed Description</h3>

This professional-grade tool boasts a meticulously tested beat detection engine that ensures reliability across various music genres. With an accuracy rate of 0.1 BPM (beats per minute), liveBPM excels when the tempo remains constant or nearly constant, and when strong impulses define the beat (such as drums or accentuated rhythm instruments like bass or guitar).

Key Features:

<ul>
 <li>Tempo curve displays the tempo's development over time.</li>
 <li>Multiple zoom modes: choose between the last 2, 3, 5, 7, 10, 15, 20, or 30 minutes for a more detailed analysis.</li>
 <li>Advanced audio spectrum analysis using FFT.</li>
 <li>More accessible and typically more accurate than tapping-based BPM counters.</li>
 <li>Economical battery usage thanks to optimized code and efficient algorithms.</li>
</ul>

Usage for Musicians:

<ul>
 <li>Use it as an objective tempo reference similar to a metronome.</li>
 <li>Enjoy the advantages it offers over a traditional metronome:</li>
 <ul>
 <li>Freedom from being tied to a click, allowing for greater flexibility.</li>
 <li>Enhancement of musical expression through tempo changes.</li>
 <li>Confidence boost in timing accuracy, especially for drummers or other musicians in a tempo-leading role.</li>
 </ul>
 <li>Explore how your favorite artists incorporate tempo changes.</li>
 <li>Measure and improve your time-keeping skills.</li>
 <li>Identify slowdowns and speedups while practicing your instrument.</li>
 <li>Maintain control over the tempo during live gigs and rehearsals.</li>
</ul>

Controls:

<ul>
 <li>Power Button: Freeze the tempo curve and minimize battery drain.</li>
 <li>Clear Button: Reset the tempo curve to start fresh.</li>
 <li>Slider: Adjust the target tempo range (e.g., 80-160 BPM).</li>
 <li>Zoom Buttons: Easily switch between different zoom modes for the tempo curve (2-30 minutes).</li>
</ul>

Note:

<ul>
 <li>Detection accuracy can be improved by clapping loudly to the beat or using a suitable external microphone.</li>
