Spectralite BPM for TouchDesigner

Tracks the beat of any audio CHOP inside TouchDesigner and writes tempo, phase and beat as channels.

What you get

  • Tempo. Drive speed, rate and timing from the live BPM.
  • Beat pulse. Trigger a hit on every beat, or sweep a value across each one.
  • Bars. Know where you are in the bar, so you can change a look on the downbeat.
  • Lock and confidence. See when the tracker has the beat and how sure it is.

Also included

  • Your audio. Comes wired to an audio input, or listens to any audio you already have in the network.
  • Fix a wrong tempo. Double or halve it with ×2 and ÷2, or tap on the downbeat to line the beat up with the room.
  • Compensate for delay. Shift the beat earlier to match your output chain.
