Bjango Introduces Beats 1.0

Bjango has released Beats 1.0, DJ helper app for iPhone and iPod Touch. Beats combines a BPM counter, an advanced DJ metronome and a key-mixing aid designed to assist DJs create smooth, harmonically matched mixes. Working out the BPM (beats per minute) of a song couldn't be simpler - just tap along with the song. Beats uses intelligent averaging that hones in on the correct BPM the more you tap.

The metronome in Beats supports beat, duple and triplet timing, and can be "pushed" and "pulled" to get it in sync with songs in the same way DJs beatmix with CDJs or Technics 1200s. Four metronome sound sets are included: click, 808, 909 and live drums. Beats also includes a piano keyboard, specifically designed for keying records. It displays the chromatic mixing options for the last key pressed, letting you know which other records will mix harmonically.

"A great little app for helping you find the BPM and key of your records. I also use it in the studio when writing and sampling. Definitely one for DJs and producers." Luc Wiesman, Duosseudo


"I love the key mixing feature, having a portable reference when I'm at a gig is indispensable! Nice work Bjango folks!" Timothy Allan, remixer and producer
