Tempi – Live Beat Detection App Reviews

Only used this once so far, but plan to keep it as part of my gig setup. Today was an acoustic gig with me on cajon. Tempi did a great job of reading our live tempo. We tend to rush a bit we get louder so it was good to see that feedback so I could work on keeping the band on pace. Don’t try to over correct too quickly, that will just sound bad. Love the app. Sound quality wasn’t great but it was right by me and not my top need. Also would love to have access to the tempo chart you see live when

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.

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.

It loses track of bpm and you have to reset. Not good for a gigging drummer

Easy to use and VERY effective at .0% BPM AWASOME

So good…. Seems pretty accurate to me and a helpful tool… Of course I wish it was ALSO an AUv3 with the ability to send MIDI rate to other apps for improvising live music. … This would be so cool to have it listen to a live drummer and all my AUM related apps follow along… still very cool helpful tool

I love this app, and it seems pretty accurate! Please add Shazam integration so we can see the name and artist of a tune while checking the temp. Thank you!

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

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!

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.
