Tempi – Live Beat Detection

Good for monitoring the tempo. As a solo guitarist this tool is very handy as this records the music played. I can analyze the areas where I speed up and correct accordingly. Love this app thanks

Exactly what I needed

I test professional artists recordings to match their tempos. I can’t get Tempi to measure/work simultaneously with my player apps (Bandcamp, Amazing Slow Downer, Apple Music, Recorder) when both are on the same device. Either the player stops as soon as I touch “record” button on Tempi, or Tempi stops when I turn on the player app. This won’t work for me.

Very helpful for those of us who struggle to play in time. I think it would be even more helpful though if there was the ability to calculate the mean and standard deviation BPM over the course of the recording. This would help indicate over time, improvement in our ability to play in time.

Not a great tempometer. If you want to record your performances you can receive a running live tempo read out. This could be cool for reviewing your performances. But if you don’t want to commit memory resources and just want a live tempo reference…this is not the app for you. Expensive too.

This little app does what my expensive audio and video editing software does not: It accurately detects beats per minute. For a (non-musician) video editor who has struggled with timing clips to music for years, Tempi is a miracle. I’m now freed from the endless cycle of tapping out the beat, timing the clip, getting it wrong, tapping, re-timing the clip… Thank you!

This app is amazing, get tons of compliments while using it in live situations!

It doesn’t work. Placed phone right next to drum kit playing snare only and it wasn’t anywhere in the ballpark. Was playing 90 bpm and it registered as 118. Slowed playing down to 65 and it registered as 127. Sped up and it was up and down from 72 to 110. Played a song from YouTube and it was all over the place on a simple steady beat. Not sure if something changed recently or if it’s related to phone hardware or OS version. I’m on a 13 Pro using iOS 15.5. Plenty of good reviews on here so I’m just surprised it works so poorly. Waste of $6 🙄

I am a pro drummer and have used this app in performance quite a bit. It is a great safety net and really helps to me to feel solid in a very natural way. My time feels much more consistent and confident after when I remove it from the equation as well! I have a few minor suggestions, but bravo on what has become one of my most efficient tools! I only have a couple minor suggestions. I love that it records, but it would be great to have the option to not record. Recording drains the battery very quickly, thus making it unusable for longer recordings if you cannot plug in your device. Also, it would be amazing to be able to minimize the app while being able to use another app simultaneously. ie. sheet music app, fourscore, etc. I recommend it to my students and colleagues. People are always amazed and wonder why they have never heard of it! As is, it is still incredible and I will continue to utilize and recommend it to anyone that may benefit. Thank you for the wonderful tool!
