My Tcl/Tk soft that guesses rhythm by typing on the keyboard.

   

A. Manual

1) Select "Reset Recording"

2) Play the riff many times in the Pad Zone by striking any key

3) Fill in the parameters (nb of times you played the riff, nb of bars in the riff and time signature)

4) Select "Analyze"

5) The rhythm is shown in a window (together with the computed tempo)

B. Installation
