Yumeko BPMFinder - My very own human-assisted BPM analyzer written in JavaScript!
Saturday, August 16th, 2008 by Agro Rachmatullah
On a previous post I discussed about the results of a Windows BPM finder program MixMeister BPM Analyzer. It sometimes produces values that are 2 times or half the seemingly actual value. And then the doubt grew on me, “Is that program even accurate at all?”. So, I was set to program my own BPM finder.
But I don’t know any sound programming stuffs, so I went for the easy path of a human-assisted program in which the algorithm is very intuitive. A human would tap the beats while playing a song and the program will do the simple mathematical calculation (it’s “beats per minute” for a thing, so it’s basically just a division).
