This is libbeat, a lightweight beat detection library for Qt. It currently supports ALSA and PulseAudio. It uses fftw to process the samples.
Only tested on Linux.
The software is still in development and pre-alpha.
The library comes with a sample Qt Application, simply run
qmake make
in the root directory to build it.
Make sure you have fftw3, alsa (or PulseAudio) and Qt4 installed!
When running the application, make sure to declare the right LIBRARY_PATH. This should work from within the SoundAnalyser directory:
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=../src ./SoundAnalyser
