BPM & Key Detector

Tempo and musical key, estimated directly from the audio — tempo via autocorrelation of the track's onset pattern, key via the standard Krumhansl-Kessler chroma-profile method. Both are confidence-gated: when a track's rhythm or pitch content isn't clear enough to estimate reliably, this page says so instead of guessing.

Tempo and key are estimates

Sparse intros, changing tempo, syncopation and ambiguous harmony can reduce confidence. Half-time and double-time readings may both fit a groove. Confirm the result by listening before using it to warp or transpose a track.
