The apps

The apps send the tempo to the software you run.

How it works

The detector runs the Spectralite Real-Time Beat Tracker, a beat tracker trained on electronic and club music for live DJ sets. It updates the tempo as the music changes. It runs in your browser, in Safari on iPhone and Chrome on Android, and the sound it hears stays on your device.

Spectralite Studio uses the same tracker to keep lighting locked to the music.
