Tempo Control

InstallationCopy Anchor Link

$ pnpm dlx shadcn@latest add @audiocn-solid/tempo-control

UsageCopy Anchor Link

import { TempoControl } from "@/components/ui/tempo-control";

<TempoControl defaultValue={120} onValueChange={setBpm} />

Tap at least twice to measure a tempo. The control averages the last four intervals and starts a new sequence after more than two seconds without a tap. Typing or stepping the input clears the tap history.

BPM values are always whole numbers. Tapped, typed and externally supplied fractional values round to the nearest integer. The default range is 30-600 BPM; set min and max to suit your application.

AnatomyCopy Anchor Link

The input and tap button render by default. Supply children to arrange the parts, change their labels, or omit the tap button.

<TempoControl>
  <TempoControlInput />
  <TempoControlTap>Tap tempo</TempoControlTap>
</TempoControl>

ExamplesCopy Anchor Link

Custom elementsCopy Anchor Link

Use TempoControlTap's as prop to replace the default trigger with a custom element. This example combines a sound pad with a tempo readout.

Controlled BPMCopy Anchor Link

value remains owned by the parent. onValueChange reports changes with a reason of tap, keyboard or input. onValueCommitted fires after a measured tap, keyboard step, or text edit committed by blurring the input.

Sizes and disabled statesCopy Anchor Link

size and disabled inherit from AudioConfigProvider; explicit props win. readOnly keeps the input focusable but prevents editing and tapping.

ThemingCopy Anchor Link

Use class on the root, input and tap button to customize the layout and appearance. Colours follow the standard shadcn theme tokens.

AccessibilityCopy Anchor Link

• The input is labelled "Tempo in beats per minute". Override aria-label, supply aria-labelledby, or pair id with a visible label and remove the default with aria-label={undefined}.
• Space and Enter activate the focused tap button.
• Disabled and read-only controls ignore taps. Holding a key does not generate repeated taps.
• Press feedback respects reduced-motion preferences.

<label for="delay-tempo">Delay tempo</label>
<TempoControl>
  <TempoControlInput id="delay-tempo" aria-label={undefined} />
  <TempoControlTap />
</TempoControl>

TempoControlCopy Anchor Link

TempoControlInputCopy Anchor Link

Accepts Solid input DOM props, including id, aria-label, class and ref.

TempoControlTapCopy Anchor Link

Accepts Solid button DOM props, including as, children, class, ref and disabled. A disabled or read-only root always disables tapping. An onClick handler can cancel a tap with event.preventDefault().

Text stays a local draft while editing, including empty or incomplete text. Blur or Enter restores the accepted rounded, clamped value. A controlled parent may reject an edit; committing restores its current value.
