Ritmo: Bachata & Salsa Counts
8-counts for bachata & salsa
Free · In‑App Purchases
Drop in a song and Ritmo marks the 8-counts and phrase changes for you. Free plan: 3 songs and 10 analyses, with unlimited YouTube tap tempo.
Ritmo is a music player for dancers who practice bachata and salsa. Add a song and the app analyzes the beat, then shows an 8-count grid with the spots where the music moves to the next phrase. You no longer have to count where the 1 is or guess when the music is about to change.
■ Automatic 8-counts
The beat is analyzed on your device and laid out as a grid of 8s. The current beat moves across the grid while a large count runs along with it. Works for both bachata and salsa.
■ Phrase changes
Each phrase gets its own color, so you can see where the music changes at a glance. The transition is highlighted a moment before it arrives so you can set up your next move.
■ Fix it by hand when needed
If the analysis is off, tap "Count from here" on the grid to move the start, adjust the BPM, or tap the tempo yourself.
■ YouTube too
Paste a YouTube link and practice with the same grid. If another dancer already aligned that video, you can use their grid right away, and share your own.
■ Your notes
Leave a memo on any cell and save your phrase layout in up to 10 note slots. Send a note as a file through any messaging app or AirDrop; tapping a received file opens it in Ritmo, where you can edit it as your own copy.
■ Formation editor
Sketch stage positions for team choreography beat by beat and play them back with the music.
■ Also
- Loop a section, change speed, jump by bar
- Tap tempo to set BPM
- Audio and video files
- Analysis runs on your device; your music never leaves your phone
- 10 languages
■ Free and Pro
Every feature is free. The free plan covers 10 songs in your library and 20 analyses; Ritmo Pro (monthly or annual subscription) removes the song limit. Payment is charged to your Apple ID (or Google account) at confirmation, and the subscription renews automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the period. Manage or cancel in your store account settings.
