Abstract This paper describes a tempo estimation algorithm submitted to the MIREX 2011, and is an extension of the work presented in Audio Engineering Society Conference: 42nd International Conference: Semantic Audio called “Comparative Evaluation and Combination of Audio Tempo Estimation Approaches,”. Using the tempo estimation results from four different approaches (BeatIt, Ellis, Davies and MPEG7-XM),we use a heuristic strategy to obtain the slow and fast tempo from audio music combinig their results, based on the hypothesis that the tatum and tactus tempo hierarchal levels can be obtained from these estimations analyzing their relations.
