It's kind of dumb honestly.

I only tried it once, I got 827 but there's a double click sound on my laptop. Would much rather just hit a dumb or tap something and be right on.


Idk, I'm a drummer with autistic traits. I'm all about beats patterns and consistent rhythm.

Maybe I would hate this less on an ipad or something like that but I don't own any of that stuff.

Not trying to be a hater. The name just intrigued me and when I tried it as soon as I heard the sound from clicking the pad on my computer I was disappoint.

they'll probably do worse on average than musicians who play real instruments. Depending what exactly they do obviously, but pretty much all DJ's don't need to be as good at keeping a beat as a drummer or bassist.

also the response time on a keyboard is at very best 2 ms and probably more like 5 ms, so even at best you'll still be loosing a point per beat. Unless you hit a bit before to get it on.

Idk, gave it another shot and got 913 but even the buttons have delay and rebound.

I wish I could just plug a drum into it.

How did you manage this?

This is the result I get using an autoclicker:

The response time ranging from 2 to 18 ms, which is why score was lost. The clicker itself is perfectly on the 500 ms which the beat is.



So it's actually impossible to do what you did by physically clicking the mouse or keyboard. Unless you have some crazy computer with no variation in response time.

or you can predict what the essentially random response time is going to be right before each click and compensate for it. The chances of physically clicking the perfect amount before each beat to get that many right on is probably about 1 in 10^9000.
