🌀 Music Video Recording app with a click track?

Live looping has come a long way. But one thing that still catches people out, even experienced musicians: (wait for it…) timing.

Time honoured - the Metronome

Muser Studio: The Video Recording App with a Click Track

Consider that moment when you go to lay down a second part over the first, then realise the former wasn't quite as tight enough to give you confidence on the beat.

Sometimes it’s latency. Sometimes it’s nerves.  But often, it’s just the absence of anything acting as a framework to keep your timing in check.

⌛ The Metronome Problem

Of course, there’s a solution for that. It’s been around forever. The humble metronome.

Set your BPM (beats per minute). Set it going. Click, click, click.

The problem? It doesn’t always work for, or isn't even available to loopers.

• Maybe you’re figuring things out by feel

• Maybe fiddling with the metronome settings is so tedious that you'd rather not bother

• Or maybe you’re in the kind of flow where thinking about the BPM for something you’re about to play before you’ve played it just doesn't make sense

In those moments, dealing with a metronome becomes a chore, rather than something helpful.

So sure, most people just turn it off. But that leaves us with the original problem:

No timing = Loops that drift.

Parts that don’t quite stack. Takes that sound fine, until you try to build on them.  Insert your favourite shaky-house foundations cliché here.

💡 So what if the metronome worked with you?

What if it waited until you played something, then with a quiet “cool, I got it”, switched on followed your lead?

Imagine a music video recording app with a click track that adapted to how you’re actually playing that first loop, figuring out your BPM, before presenting itself automatically.

That’s the idea.  And it’s coming soon.
