    Loop & song length BEATS

    BEATS

    These are the lengths of multiple beats (handy for calculating loop lengths, LFO)

    1 beat =500ms =2Hz 2 beats =1000ms =1Hz 3 beats =1.5sec =0.67Hz 4 beats =2sec =0.5Hz
    6 beats =3sec =0.33Hz 7 beats =3.5sec =0.29Hz 8 beats =4sec =0.25Hz 10 beats =5sec =0.2Hz
    12 beats =6sec =0.17Hz 16 beats =8sec =0.13Hz 24 beats =12sec =0.08Hz 32 beats =16sec =0.06Hz

    BARS

    These are the lengths of multiple bars/measures (handy for estimating the length of a song).

    2 bars =4 sec 4 bars =8 sec 8 bars =16 sec 16 bars =32 sec
    32 bars =64 sec 40 bars =80 sec 24 bars =48 sec 48 bars =96 sec
    60 bars =120 sec 80 bars =160 sec 100 bars =200 sec 120 bars =240 sec
    Fractions → millisecs

    FRACTIONS

    These are some common fractions (handy for setting delays and modulation parameters)

    What is BPM and why is it important?

    BPM (Beats Per Minute) is the tempo or speed of a song. It helps musicians, DJs, and producers keep rhythm, sync tracks, and create smooth transitions. Knowing a song’s BPM is essential for remixing, beat matching, or practicing instruments with precision and consistency in timing.

    Tap tempo mode works by detecting the time between each tap you make. It calculates the average interval and converts it into beats per minute (BPM). After 8–12 consistent taps, the calculator smooths out any mistakes and shows a steady, accurate BPM based on your rhythm.

    What is a bar, and how are bars calculated?

    A bar is a musical unit made up of a specific number of beats, based on the time signature. In common 4/4 time, each bar has 4 beats. At 120 BPM, each beat lasts 0.5 seconds, so one bar equals 2 seconds. Bars help structure rhythm and timing in music.
