Tap BPM
RhythmCalculate BPM of live music or audio instantly by tapping along to the beat.
Delay Calculator
Calculate precise delay times and reverb decay rates in milliseconds and Hertz based on your track's tempo.
Calculated Timing Divisions
| Note Length | Straight (ms) | Dotted (ms) | Triplet (ms) | Frequency (Hz) |

How to Use the Delay Calculator
Convert a tempo (BPM) into precise audio delay times in milliseconds for music production syncing.
Lining up delay reflections and reverb decays creates transparent, cohesive mixes:
- Adjust the BPM input using the precise text block or the rapid slider.
- The table computes millisecond timings for all beat lengths (Whole, Half, Quarter, 8th, 16th, and 32nd notes).
- Straight lists normal timing reflections.
- Dotted notes represent 1.5x length offsets (for rhythmic bounces).
- Triplet notes represent 2/3x compressed divisions (for swing variations).
- Frequency (Hz) maps milliseconds to rate speeds, useful for syncing LFO filters and phase modulations.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why sync delay times?
Syncing delay and reverb time to BPM ensures that echo repetitions land exactly on beat with your percussion, avoiding rhythmic clutter in your mix.
