About this tool

How accurate is it?

Tempo and pitch processing use Signalsmith Stretch — a phase-locked phase vocoder with formant preservation. Key + BPM detection runs through Essentia. Both are good on clean recordings and most pop / rock tracks; tempo detection can occasionally land on a half- or double-time multiple, and key may show a relative major / minor on ambiguous material. The slow-down + loop combination is what most musicians actually use this for — those are rock-solid.

Do you store the audio?

Nope, everything stays on your device.
