StrideBeats for Walks & Runs

Turn every step of your daily walk into a live musical performance. StrideBeats is an innovative motion-based sequencer that syncs the tempo of live, programmatically synthesized music to your step cadence (Steps Per Minute) in real time.

Whether you are power walking, jogging, or taking a relaxed stroll, StrideBeats uses advanced accelerometer peak detection and pedometer tracking to keep the beat perfectly aligned with your pace. No pre-recorded tracks, no static playlists—just pure, algorithmically generated soundscapes crafted on-the-fly by your motion.
