[sdiy] Tap Tempo

[Tim Parkhurst]

This did come up a while ago (six months or so, I think), and the general
consensus was that a microprocessor-based solution would be simpler and much
more accurate. Well, simpler if you know how to program a micro. I think a
discrete digital solution (i.e. not involving a micro) was also proposed,
but this would probably end up using a lot more hardware than a processor
driven solution. Might be worth checking the archives.

And no, not really off-topic at all. :)
