Tap along with the beat (mouse, touch, space or Enter). The last eight taps are averaged; pause for 2.5 s to start over.
How it works
Setting delay times from the song tempo keeps echoes in the groove. Dotted values give the classic 'dotted eighth' echo; triplets create swing feels.
Formulas
- quarter note [ms] = 60000 / BPM
- dotted = ×1.5 triplet = ×2/3
