This article is about the music analysis software. For the vegetable, see Beetroot.

BeatRoot is an audio beat tracking and modelling application. In 2006, it won the MIREX prize.

The application is written in Linux/C++, with a Java-based user interface. The code is open source.

BeatRoot accepts file input in either digital audio or MIDI format. uses two simultaneous processes to model the rhythm of a piece of music, one to establish the tempo of the piece and one to synchronise a beat to the music. Since these two processes may at times be at odds, a system of multiple agents model their respective results and arrive at an optimum solution for the music being studied.
