Kizamu: Metronome & Tempo
BPM Detector & Metronome
Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
New features and a new name to fit
Kizamu does something no other metronome app does: it tells you when to trust it.
Kizamu is both a metronome and a real-time tempo detector. Point the mic at a drummer, a rehearsal, a recording, or any live source and Kizamu detects the tempo as it plays. Instead of throwing a number at you and hoping for the best, it shows you exactly how confident it is, so you always know whether to follow it or wait.
It works on everything from solo drummers and full bands in rehearsal to recordings and complex, layered arrangements.
## THREE CONFIDENCE STATES
Gray means Kizamu is still listening. Yellow means it has a candidate but wants a few more bars to be sure. Green means it is locked, and once it is green it stays green through tempo drift, drum fills, and brief silences. No flicker, no random jumping.
## A STANDARD METRONOME
No frills. Just an accurate, straightforward metronome when all you need is a steady click.
## TAP TEMPO
Tap along to anything and Kizamu finds your tempo.
## GROOVE SEQUENCER
Tap the dots in the sequencer to shape the click pattern. Each step can play, accent, or rest. Build a shuffle, a triplet feel, or a syncopated groove in a few taps and hear it immediately.
## TEMPO RAMP
Set a starting tempo, choose a goal, and decide how many bars it should take to get there. Use a smooth ramp for continuous movement or stepped changes that hold each tempo for a set number of bars. Kizamu can play a short cue when the tempo changes, and Practice Mode can wait at each step until you hold it on target. Build speed gradually without stopping to adjust the metronome yourself.
## PRACTICE MODE
Set a target tempo and hit Start. Kizamu plays the click at that tempo and listens to your instrument at the same time. It reports in real time whether you are on target, rushing, or dragging. When you stop, you get a score and a full breakdown: on-target percentage, mean tempo, standard deviation, and maximum excursion from the target. It is the kind of objective feedback that is difficult to get while you are playing.
Pair Practice Mode with Tempo Ramp to see how accurately you follow a moving target as the tempo rises or falls.
## SESSION HISTORY
Practice and tempo-detection sessions lasting at least 20 seconds are saved automatically. Review when you played, how long the session lasted, and the key tempo or practice statistics. Search past sessions, compare fixed-tempo and ramp practice, and track the hours you have put in over time.
Kizamu Pro adds custom session names, detailed tempo timelines, and CSV or PNG export for deeper review and sharing.
## FREE TO TRY, PRO FOR KEEPS
Try tempo detection and Practice Mode free, with three sessions each and no account required. Tempo Ramp and core Session History are included. If Kizamu earns its place in your workflow, a single purchase unlocks unlimited detections, unlimited practice sessions, Live Analysis, session timelines, custom names, and CSV or PNG export.
## FOR MUSICIANS, NOT JUST DJS
Most BPM tools are built for DJs tagging pre-recorded tracks. Kizamu is built for musicians in the room: drummers who want to know their live tempo, guitarists locking to a rehearsal, teachers who need to quietly find a student's natural pace, and anyone learning to play along with a recording.
## LAB (PRO): FOR THE DETAIL-ORIENTED
The Lab view shows the internal state of the detection engine in real time. You see exactly what Kizamu is hearing as it hears it. It is there for the technically curious and for musicians who want to understand how the lock is formed.
New name, expanded detection range (20-500bpm), tempo ramp, and practice/detect session history.
