Tempo · Tap tempo
Tap the pulse. Find the BPM.
A quick way to estimate tempo from a recording, rehearsal or beat you already hear.
ReadySpace or T also taps
BPM—Tap at least twice
Tap with the pulse for 5–8 beats. A long pause starts a fresh estimate.
Method
Five steady taps are usually enough.
Tap with the beat rather than with individual notes. Rytune measures the recent gaps between taps, ignores an obviously long pause and converts the average interval into BPM.
If the number keeps moving, keep tapping. A steady result matters more than the first estimate.
