Description

TrailMix is a unique combination of three powerful tools: a running cadence tracker, a step-synchronized music player, and a metronome. It’s an all-in-one app that includes tools to check your running cadence, change the tempo of any song in your library to match your stride, and play a beat to help guide you to the perfect cadence.

• While you’re walking, jogging, or running, the cadence tracker detects the speed you are moving at, in steps per minute.
• TrailMix is the music lover’s choice: the original step-synchronized music player, it can increase or decrease the tempo of any song without distortion, and it works with your existing music library.
• The metronome is state-of-the-art, with physically modeled drums, a subtle reverb effect, and evolving musical chords.

◢◤ FEATURES ◥◣
• A cadence monitor displays your current steps per minute.
• Easily increase or decrease the tempo of music or a metronome to help pace your run.
• Synchronize your music to match your cadence.
• Works at any speed: walk, run, sprint, or stroll.
• Play songs from your existing music library.
• Superb audio quality and no “chipmunk” effect.
• Switch between automatic and manual cadence.
• Beautifully crafted, incredibly intuitive interface.
• Built-in pedometer & timer functions.
• Health app integration for steps and workouts.
• Integrates with the Apple Music streaming service.

◢◤ RUN WITH MUSIC ◥◣
For downloaded songs that you have purchased or imported, the app features automatic beat detection that works on-device. TrailMix works with all the music on your device, in any musical genre, not just traditional workout songs. Our advanced recognition engine “listens” to the music to sync the perfect tempo. Accurate and efficient, it detects the beat of any song within seconds.

For Apple Music subscribers, we also offer a simple yet powerful experience that works well with streaming. Just tap along to the tempo to manually set the BPM. (Requires iOS 13.0 or later.)

TrailMix can detect your steps and make the song faster or slower to match your cadence, returning to the song’s actual speed in an instant when you stop moving.

TrailMix also lets you set the playback tempo and lock in a song, or even an entire playlist, at a particular speed. This “cruise” functionality is perfect for runners who want to lock in a consistent stride rate, such as 180 beats per minute.

▪ Play any song, and its beats mirror your feet.

◢◤ UPGRADE YOUR WORKOUT ◥◣
According to scientific research, “synchronizing movements with music enables athletes to perform more efficiently, resulting in greater endurance.” (Karageorghis & Priest, 2008, The Sport Journal). Automatic cadence detection works anywhere, from the trail to the treadmill.

▪ Moving to the rhythm makes your body more efficient. Fatigue slower, become faster, go further.

Works great !

No idea why more people aren't using this - it gives me a pretty good 180 bpm tempo to stick at.

In fairness, I haven't tried the feature where it matches your pace - I prefer to set a tempo then run to it - MUCH better for reaching a pb as I did today in my 10k.

Not sure why this doesn't come up in an Apple Store search when you type running Beats per minute etc.

Also not sure what you're getting in the pro version or why anybody would pay?

The interface is not as intuitive as it could be – but maybe that's just me.

Overall, well done and thanks!

Interesting idea

I can sort of see how it can work, it doesn't change songs to match pace but alters the speed of the track your listening to but without the pitch changing, so you don't get Green day sounding like the chipmunks, but the speed/beat increases, you can end up hearing some odd versions of songs, but I think the song paving will naturally fit into you stride do you won't really notice that much unless you suddenly change speed very quickly, it'll be interesting to see how runners responds to this app in the long term.

Works well for me.

As a novice runner I struggle to run at a set cadence and have used music to help.
The pro version of the app tweaks the tracks BPM in real time producing a nice constant pace for me.
Not sure about the variable BPM but that's probably equally useful for experienced runners.

A cross fade between tracks would be nice but can't fault the app!
