Controls

This BPM calculator includes the following controls and features:

TAP BPM Button

The main button used to tap along with the beat. You can use it with your mouse, any keyboard key, or by tapping the screen on mobile devices.

Visual Beat and Measure Counter

As you press TAP or mark each beat, circles will appear and automatically group into measures. Up to 4 measures are displayed visually, while the average calculation continues using all recorded taps for maximum BPM accuracy.

Tap Counter

This indicator at the bottom shows the total number of TAPs or beats you’ve entered.

Time Signature Selection

Choose how many beats each measure contains. The most common option for modern music is 4 beats per measure. This setting affects both the audio playback (by accenting the first beat of each measure) and the visual grouping of measures.

Enable Sound & Accent the First Beat

When you enable sound, you’ll hear a click every time you tap a beat, helping you stay more accurate.

• • With the Accent First Beat option enabled, the first beat of every measure will sound different, just like a metronome.

Copy the calculated BPM value to use it anywhere you need.

Open in the Metronome

Use the detected tempo directly in the metronome.
