Short: A BPM Counter Author: Jack Chatterton, AmigaOS 4.0 compile by Spot / Up Rough Uploader: Varthall / Up Rough Type: mus/misc Version: 1.1 Architecture: ppc-amigaos >= 4.0.5 PhatBeat PhatBeat aims to be a simple, attractive, cross-platform beat counter for use by collectors, producers, DJs, and others interested in beat-oriented music. For now it requires users to tap in the beat during listening, after which it calculates and displays the track's BPM and the size of a measure in seconds. USAGE There are no command-line options. The basic usage of both programs is to tap in a beat as one is listening to it, and then have the BPM reported back. Hotkeys in the graphical version of the program are [A] to give an all-clear and [Q] to quit the program. All other keys register as a beat tap. In the command-line version, only [ENTER] may be used to tap the beat, and the program ends after each BPM report. The programs are hopefully simple enough to use without more explanation.
