So...I wrote 'TempoCalc' some time ago, which I find very useful at the beginning of a project or for jamming when you want to know the tempo of that song you've got playing around in your head. I was quite chuffed to create a little app with MFC support which zips down to less than 4KB!

Simply run the app and tap any key on your (computer's) keyboard. If you pause for two seconds or more, it resets internally and you can start again.

This is for Windows only (sorry Mac users).

I hope that some of you find this useful in some way.

Thank you very much for this present.

This can be a practice prg for drumers to raise their precision skill.

Anyway nice little toy, enjoy your holidays and happy x-mas/new year to you.
Good luck with your new card and software.

Thanx =)

Very usefull indeed.

Merry X-mas and a happy new year.

Thanks very much for it, I'll try it and see how can I use it when writing something, cheers...

You too have nice Christmas time...

When I downloaded this device I didn't think much of it, other than it was a funny little device that might come in handy - Which it is!
It's a great little tool that I use a lot more than I first expected.
Simple and great!

Thanks!

This looks like it will be extremely useful, especially for working around a central sample.

Happy x-mas to you . . . and all at the Z

Will.

I used to turn on the GrooveBox to tap in a BPM

Thanks, comes in handy this neat utility!

Merry Christmas all!
