Does anyone know of any software that will analyse an audio track (pcm, mp3 whatever) and spit out a list of beats? Specific beats rather than just BPM stuff is what I had in mind.
Cheers,

Acid. Has a beatmapper built in when you drop the tracks in.
Was made by Soundforge but now by $ony.

I'm a bit tired so maybe I'm thinking about the wrong thing but....
Look up fast fourier(sp?) transforms (FFT). They are used quite a bit for this. Gamedev.net has quite a bit of info on more or less realtime FFT last I checked, assuming thats what you are wanting.

I found a prog called Audacity (on download.com) that will export a list of 'beat' times. Looks perfect for what I want :)
