    Frequently Asked Questions


    What is an FIR filter?

    FIR stands for Finite Impulse Response, a type of digital filter used to process signals, ensuring a finite number of calculations for average and latest beats per minute.

    What does the latest BPM feature show?

    The latest BPM displays the most recent BPM measurement based on the latest taps, providing real-time feedback.

    How do timing taps affect BPM calculation?

    Timing taps determine the intervals used to calculate the BPM, affecting the accuracy of the measurement.

    How do I choose the number of filter taps?

    You can select the number of filter taps based on the desired smoothness of the BPM measurement. More taps provide smoother results.

    How do I set a pause duration?

    You can select a pause duration between 1 to 5 seconds in the settings menu.

    Can I use this filter for real-time BPM tracking?

    Yes, our FIR filtered is designed for real-time tracking with immediate feedback based on user inputs.

    How can I adjust the sensitivity of the filter?

    You can adjust the sensitivity of the filter by changing the number of filter taps to suit your needs.

    Can the FIR filter handle irregular tapping?

    Yes, our FIR filter can handle irregular tapping. However, for accurate beats per-minute measurements, you need to tap consistently.

    How does the average BPM feature work?

    The average BPM calculates the mean beats per minute over a set period or number of beats to provide a stable reading.

    Why is measuring in milliseconds important?

    Measuring in milliseconds is important as it provides precise timing between beats, which is crucial for accurate BPM calculations.

    What are filter taps?

    Filter taps are preset numbers of taps (3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16) used to smooth the BPM calculation for more accurate readings.

    What does the pause feature do?

    The pause feature allows a pause in BPM calculation, which can help in resetting the filter without starting over.

    What happens when I reset the BPM calculation?

    If you click the reset option, then all the current BPM data and filter settings are cleared, allowing you to start fresh with a new measurement.

    Is there a limit to how many taps I can input?

    No, there are no limitations on how many taps you can input. However, you can use preset filter taps such as 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, and 16 for accuracy and smooth performance.

    How do I interpret the BPM readings?

    Higher BPM indicates a faster tempo and lower BPM indicates a slower tempo.

    Is the FIR filter suitable for all types of music?

    Yes, our FIR filter is suitable for all types of music.
