So i did a quick statistical analyses comparing the Engine Prime bpm and beatgrid detection vs RBDJ, SDJ Pro & Traktor Pro. I don’t have Virtual DJ 8.

Sample size 20 Tracks all sorts and i kept it at “mainstream” genres.

BPM Range 60 to 160

Bias: One or Two old tracks probably made with live drummers, i initially planned on just using modern tracks but i thought what the heck.

My spreadsheet skills are not that great, so all the bars are blue 😛

G = Grid B = BPM

I accepted half time bpms as a correct bpm reading
