Ever wished your gear could just follow the music that's playing? MIDI Pulse BPM Detecter listens through the microphone, detects the BPM in real time, and keeps sending it to your equipment as MIDI Clock and Tap Tempo CC. Sync your delay pedals, arpeggiators, drum machines and loopers — no more frantically tapping along to the track. LISTENS AND DETECTS • Fully automatic beat detection from the microphone • Auto mode analyzes Low / Mid / High / Full frequency bands simultaneously and picks whichever hears the beat most clearly — kick-heavy tracks and hi-hat-driven grooves both lock in automatically • Or pin detection to a specific band: Kick, Snare, or Hi-Hat • Customizable detection range (60–200 BPM), 2x BPM mode for double-time output • One-tap manual tempo setting with tap tempo SEE WHAT IT HEARS • Beat markers on the live waveform show exactly where each beat was recognized • Optional detection envelope overlay reveals what the detector is actually analyzing • Flash lamp blinking in sync with the BPM • Real-time waveform and level meter MIDI OUTPUT • MIDI Clock transmission (24 PPQN) • Tap Tempo CC messages (customizable CC number and channel) • Bluetooth MIDI support — connect to your gear wirelessly • Auto-gain keeps detection stable even at low volumes (up to 30x) BUILT FOR THE STAGE • Settings save automatically and apply instantly • MIDI send / beat detection indicators • Pause and resume anytime In the DJ booth, at rehearsal, on stage: stop matching tempo by ear and let the phone in your pocket handle it.
