Know the
tempo. Now.

EasyBPM reads the tempo and the key straight off the audio - live on a track while it plays, or from a file you drop on it.

One number, no guessing.

EasyBPM showing 120 BPM and the key B minor with its Camelot code

The number, and the key with it

One answer, not two lookups: EasyBPM reads the tempo and the musical key out of the audio itself - no click, no markers, no tapping - and hands them back together, with the Camelot code beside the key.

Tempo and key from the same pass
Live on a track, or from a file you drop in
Runs inside Logic, Ableton and any VST3 host
Analysis stays on your machine

Drop a file, get the answer

Drag any audio file onto the window and the whole thing gets analysed. EasyBPM names the file back at you before you let go, so you know what you are about to measure - then answers with tempo and key together.

WAV, AIFF, MP3, M4A, FLAC - or a whole folder at once
The file is named and sized before you drop it
Tempo and key from one pass
Copy the result with one click
An audio file being dragged onto the EasyBPM window, which answers with a dashed drop target and the file name and size
EasyBPM with the TAP button lit while a tempo is tapped in

Or tap it in yourself

Some material will not give up a grid - a rubato intro, a live take, a voice memo. Tap along and EasyBPM fits a tempo to your taps, with a bar that fills as you go.

Tap tempo that sharpens with every tap
Two decimal places when you want them
Sixteen taps fill the bar; pause and a fresh count starts
Halve and double are one press away

See the shape of the track

Switch STRUCTURE on and a dropped file comes back as more than a number. The key arrives with its Camelot code, and under it the whole song laid out in bars - intro, verses, choruses, bridge, outro - so you can read the arrangement before you have listened to a bar of it.

Light or dark, plugin or app

The same window in light or dark, and the same licence either way: the plugin on a track, the standalone app on its own, on both platforms.

Light or dark - set it once, app and plugin both follow
macOS: AU, VST3 and the app
Windows: VST3, CLAP and the app
Up to two machines on one key

Or shrink it to a strip

When the number is all you need, EasyBPM folds down to a single bar - tempo, key and the buttons, nothing else. It stops being a window you have to make room for and becomes a readout you glance at.

One bar, about as tall as a toolbar
Tempo, key and the Camelot code still on it
÷2, ×2 and TAP stay one press away, beside RESET or CLEAR
Folds back to the full window the same way

What you actually get

No small print.

Seven days, then your call

The free week runs on the yearly plan. Cancel inside it and the card is never charged - and we email you three days before it ends, so the date is never a surprise.

Works offline

The licence checks in when it can and keeps working for fourteen days when it cannot. A studio without wifi is not a locked-out studio.

Move it whenever

One machine on Lifetime, two on Yearly and Studio - and any seat can be handed back from the licence screen and used on the next machine instead.

FAQ

Good questions.

No questions found. Try different words.
Getting started
What does EasyBPM do?+
EasyBPM tells you the tempo and the musical key of any audio. Put the plugin on a track and it reads the tempo and key live while the music plays; or drop a file on it and it analyses the whole thing at once. It never writes to your project - it only reads.
Plugin, app, or both?+
Both, on one licence. The plugin (AU and VST3 on Mac, VST3 and CLAP on Windows) lives on a track inside your DAW, reads it live and takes dropped files too. The standalone app does the same on its own, and can also LISTEN to whatever is playing on the computer.
Which DAWs and systems work?+
macOS 14.2 (Sonoma) or later - EasyBPM uses the system audio capture that macOS 14.2 introduced - and Windows 10/11 (64-bit). The Mac build is a universal binary for Apple Silicon and Intel. Any host that loads AU, VST3 or CLAP will load EasyBPM - Logic Pro, Ableton Live, Cubase, Reaper, Studio One, FL Studio and the rest.
Do I need an internet connection?+
Only to activate your key. After that EasyBPM checks in quietly whenever it is online, and keeps working for fourteen days without a connection - then it asks to go online once to re-verify. The analysis itself never uses the internet - your audio stays on your machine.
Does my audio get uploaded anywhere?+
No. All detection runs on your own machine. Nothing about the audio - not the file, not the name, not the tempo it found - is ever sent anywhere.
How it works
How accurate is it?+
Accurate enough to work from, and honest about when it is not: while it measures, the number starts soft and comes into focus once the reading is confirmed. On steady material that takes seconds; if it never sharpens - rubato, very sparse material - that is your cue to tap it in instead. Tempo shows as a whole number, or to two decimals with DECIMALS switched on in Settings.
It says 140 and I hear 70. Why?+
Tempo has an octave problem - half and double time are genuinely the same grid, and every detector meets it. That is exactly why the ÷2 and ×2 buttons sit directly under the number: one press and the reading is the one you meant.
How does key detection work?+
The key is read from the audio the same way the tempo is. On a track in your DAW, or while LISTEN runs, a first read appears within seconds and firms up as the music plays; drop a file and the whole track is read at once. The key name and its Camelot code are shown together - switch CAMELOT off in Settings if you do not use it.
Can I tap the tempo in by hand?+
Yes. Tap along on the TAP button and EasyBPM fits a tempo to your taps; a bar fills as you go, and sixteen taps fill it. Pause for two seconds and a fresh count starts, or press RESET.
Does it change my project?+
No. EasyBPM reads audio and shows you a number. It does not set your project tempo, move regions, or write anything into the session.
Can it read what is playing in my browser?+
Yes, in the standalone app: LISTEN captures the computer's own audio output, so a reference track in a browser tab or a player is analysed the same way a file would be. On a Mac it needs macOS 14.2 or later and asks once for permission to capture system audio - nothing is recorded or sent anywhere. The plugin reads its own track instead.
Can I analyse a whole folder?+
Yes. Drop several files or a whole folder and EasyBPM lists every track with its tempo, key and Camelot code. Right-click the table to copy it and paste it into a spreadsheet.
Why does it show two keys?+
A relative major and minor, like Bbm and Db, share every note and the same Camelot code. When a track leans both ways, EasyBPM shows you both instead of guessing.
Do I need to reset between songs?+
No. Stop the transport or move to another song and the plugin starts a fresh reading on its own. RESET is there if you want to force one.
How do I copy the result?+
Once the reading is final, TAP turns into COPY and puts tempo, key and Camelot code on the clipboard. Right-click the number or the key to copy just that value - the tempo pastes straight into your DAW's tempo field.
Licence & payment
Where do I enter my key?+
Open EasyBPM - until a key is in, the licence screen opens by itself. Paste the key from your email and press ACTIVATE. Later you can reach the same screen from the LICENSED chip in the top corner, or from License… in the menu-bar or tray menu. Keys start with EBPM- (older ones EBP-), and both work.
How long is the free trial?+
Seven days, with every feature unlocked. The trial runs on the yearly plan, so a card is needed to start it - nothing is charged until day 8, and cancelling before then costs you nothing. We email you three days before it ends, so the date is never a surprise. Buy the Lifetime licence before day 8 and we cancel the subscription for you.
Yearly or Lifetime - what is the difference?+
Yearly (€9) starts with seven free days and then renews once a year until you cancel - it unlocks everything on two machines for as long as it is active. Lifetime (€19) is a one-time purchase for one machine that you keep forever, updates included. The Studio licence (€29) is the same as Lifetime, on two machines.
Can I use it on more than one Mac?+
Yearly and the Studio licence cover two machines at once - a laptop and the studio, or a Mac and a PC. Lifetime covers one. To move a seat, press DEACTIVATE on the licence screen of the machine you are leaving and activate the key on the new one. If the old machine is gone, write to us and we will free the seat.
I am on the yearly plan and want to buy it outright.+
Buy the Lifetime licence and we cancel the subscription for you the same minute, so you are never billed for both. Use the new key from then on - the email you get says which one is retired.
How do I cancel or change my card?+
Open the billing page with your licence key, or press MANAGE on the licence screen inside EasyBPM. Both land on your own Stripe portal, where you can cancel, change the card and download every invoice.
Can I reset the trial by reinstalling?+
No. The trial runs on your Stripe subscription, not on the app install, so reinstalling will not restart it.
What if it does not work for me?+
Run the seven free days first - that is what they are for, and cancelling inside them costs nothing. If something is still wrong after you have paid, EU law gives you fourteen days to change your mind, and we will refund you. Write to support@easyoneaudio.com either way; we read every message.
Do I get free updates?+
Yes, on every plan - Yearly for as long as the subscription runs, Lifetime and Studio forever.
