The problem

FINDING THE RIGHT CLIP BY
EAR DOESN'T SCALE.

A Music Bingo night can mean a library of dozens — sometimes hundreds — of songs. Every one needs a clip that starts on the recognisable, high-energy moment, lands on the chorus and not a quiet intro, and runs long enough for players to name it. Doing that by hand is slow and inconsistent: finding the sweet spot in 100 songs can eat an entire afternoon, and the answer changes depending on your ear that day.

How it works

THREE STEPS, START
TO FINISH.

An entire playlist of 50 songs can be analysed and updated in under ten minutes.

1

LOAD

Pick local media files, or connect to Phenom Bingo and choose a playlist — every song loads in one click.

2

ANALYSE

Hit "Analyse Now" and the app scans every song, scoring every possible 35-second window. A few seconds per track.

3

PREVIEW & UPDATE

Audition the suggested start times, pick the best, and write it straight back to your playlist.

ENERGY ANALYSIS

FINDS THE MOMENT THE ROOM REACTS TO

The app extracts the audio from any video or audio file and scans every possible 35-second window across the whole track, scoring each by its audio energy. In plain English: it finds the loudest, most intense, most crowd-pleasing section of every song — automatically, and the same way every time.

CHORUS DETECTION

LANDS ON THE HOOK, NOT THE INTRO

A repetition bonus rewards any section whose pattern returns later in the song — and in most tracks, that's the chorus. So instead of opening on a quiet intro or a bridge, the app naturally gravitates to the part players actually recognise: the hook they can name in seconds.

UP TO 3 RANKED OPTIONS

UP TO THREE CHOICES, NOT ONE GUESS

Rather than committing to a single answer, the app returns up to three start times for every song — each at least 60 seconds apart, so they're genuinely different parts of the track (some songs yield one or two). You stay in control: preview each and make the final call.

up to three choices, not one gues

LIVE PREVIEW

AUDITION EVERY OPTION IN SECONDS

Click Preview beside any finished song to open a dedicated window with a button for each suggestion. Tap one and the player jumps straight to that timestamp and plays. Colours tell you where you are at a glance — green for selected, red while it's playing — so you can compare them in moments.

PHENOM BINGO INTEGRATION

READS YOUR PLAYLISTS. WRITES BACK THE START TIMES.

Connect to an installed copy of Phenom Bingo on the same machine and the app reads its database directly — every playlist by name, every song loaded in a click. Pick the right start time and "Update Playlist" writes it straight back, so the song starts at exactly the right moment in your next game. A tick appears beside every song that's been written back. No import, no export, no separate step.

LOCAL & OFFLINE

RUNS ON YOUR MACHINE, NOT THE CLOUD

Two input modes: load local files (MP4 of MP3) or pull straight from Phenom Bingo. Because it analyses the actual audio, it needs the real media files on your computer — it can't read streaming or Spotify links. FFmpeg is bundled in, so there's nothing to install, and analysis, preview and write-back all run locally, no internet needed. Native on macOS and Windows.

Good to know

QUESTIONS,
ANSWERED.

Do I need Phenom Bingo to use it?

No. Local Files mode analyses any media on your computer, so it's useful to any host managing a music library. But if you do run Phenom Bingo, the integration is the magic — it reads your playlists and writes the chosen start times straight back, no manual steps.

Can it analyse my Spotify playlist?

Not directly. Phenom Song Analyser works on the actual audio, so it needs the real video or audio files on your computer — it can't analyse Spotify or other streaming links. If your songs already exist as local media files (like the music videos or audio files you host with), you're all set; if they only live as Spotify links, you'd need the files themselves.

What file formats does it handle?

Currently only MP4 and MP3.

How does it choose the clip?

It scores every 35-second window of the song by audio energy, then rewards sections that repeat later in the track — a chorus-detection heuristic — so it favours the recognisable hook. You get up to three options to preview and choose from — sometimes one or two, depending on the song.

How long does it take?

A few seconds per track. A full 50-song playlist can be analysed and updated in under ten minutes.

Does it need an internet connection?

No. After a one-time registration, analysis, preview and write-back all run locally — no cloud, no server calls, no ongoing connection required.

Is there a free trial?

Yes — every download includes 10 free song analyses, with no signup or credit card. Preview and write-back work normally during the trial, so you can test the whole workflow on real songs. It's tracked per device, so it needs an internet connection.

Is it a subscription?

No — it's a one-time purchase, licensed to your email, and a single license works on both Mac and Windows.
