Forge Audio Designs has released BEAT to MIDI, a freeware beat detection tool in VST plugin format for Windows.
BEAT to MIDI by Forge Audio Designs.
BEAT to MIDI is meant for use as a tool to extract MIDI data from Drum loops.
BEAT to MIDI is a fast acting, low overhead Beat Detection and Drum Replacement tool which producers and musicians can implement to extract MIDI data from Drum loops.
BEAT to MIDI allows for the correction of poorly captured or performed drum recordings after the recording session has taken place.
BEAT to MIDI uses sophisticated algorithms to identify each drum hit (or transient) in the time domain. Once this point is detected, MIDI data can be used to trigger replacement drum samples to alleviate poor quality recordings and/or timing errors.
BEAT to MIDI is available for free download via Forge Audio Designs website.
