Abstract

This paper describes the development of B-Keeper, a reatime beat tracking system implemented in Java and Max/MSP, which is capable of maintaining synchronisation between an electronic sequencer and a drummer. This enables musicians to interact with electronic parts which are triggered automatically by the computer from performance information. We describe an implementation which functions with the sequencer Ableton Live.
