BPM Counter

Tap in time with a song's quarter-note pulse to measure its tempo (BPM).

Mode

A gap of 2.5 seconds or more starts a fresh measurement automatically.

How to use

  1. Play the track you want to measure.
  2. Tap the pad on each quarter-note beat (the usual "1, 2, 3, 4").
  3. Four or more taps gives a stable reading. Press Reset to start over.

Simple vs. averaged

Averaged mode means every tap interval is averaged, so a little unevenness still gives a steady number. Simple mode uses only the last two taps, so it follows tempo changes quickly but jumps around more.
