iOS sequencer that gets tempo from a note or sustain pedal?
Back in the day, I used a sequencer that could create a tempo map (or real-time tempo) from a specified controller such as a sustain pedal...and there were one or more transcription apps that did the same.
Are there any iOS sequencers that can do that? On projects where I want a lot of feel, I have taken to basically just use sequencers as tape recorders and ignore the bar lines and tempo. But when editing, it is kind of nice to have bar lines.

I'm not sure I understand. NS-2 and Auria Pro have tempo tracks. I'm assuming these don't do what you want?
The issue isn’t having a tempo track. The question is can they get their tempo in real-time by listening to something like a sustain pedal that is being tapped as eighth or quarter notes. Either in real-time or after the fact.
There was a notation package that used to get its tempo from the sustain pedal. In studioVision, you could do this after the fact. You could record a take, for example. And then overdub a sustain pedal being tapped and then tell studiovision to create a tempo track from the sustain pedal events. This allows you to have a tempo track that is derived from the actual playing.
I see that there is an extension for Reaper that has a few options for doing this. It looks like Logic Pro has a similar feature though it isn't configurable (it has some way of creating a tempo map using beat detection -- which if you fed it quarter notes should be pretty straight forward).
