TactiBeat Help

Getting started

• Choose a demo track or import an audio/video file.
• Tap analyze to generate waveform and haptic cues.
• Play the result and adjust intensity, sensitivity, density, style, or timing offset if needed.

Why do I feel separate pulses instead of constant vibration?

• TactiBeat is designed around rhythm-first pulses. Clear gaps make beats easier to read through touch.
• Dense audio may be simplified so the tactile pattern does not collapse into a continuous buzz.

What music works best?

• Tracks with percussion, strong downbeats, rests, and clear energy changes usually feel best.
• Ambient pads, vocals-only material, or very dense mixes may produce less distinct tactile rhythm.

Can it represent pitch or lyrics?

• No. Phone vibration cannot faithfully encode lyrics, melody, pitch, or timbre. The app focuses on rhythm, pulse, and energy changes.

Troubleshooting

• If pulses feel too dense, lower density or sensitivity.
• If pulses feel too weak, raise intensity or try a sharper haptic style.
• If timing feels offset, adjust timing offset until the pulse aligns with the sound.
