We assume in this example that the BPM is 120 ; and the audio is processed at a rate of 48kHz. Thus, a beat has a duration of 0.5 seconds or 24000 samples. … To implement the "beat divide" effect, the audio is shoved in a ringer buffer as it is played, and a beat tracker collects the time stamp of beats. …
