Frequently asked questions

How accurate is this?+

Very good for tracks with a clear, consistent beat (most electronic music, pop, hip-hop) — it can be less reliable on rubato, freeform, or heavily syncopated material.

What is the beat offset useful for?+

It's the time of the first detected beat, which is exactly what you need to set a manual beatgrid start point in a DAW or DJ app.
