About BPM (Beats Per Minute)

BPM (Beats Per Minute) is the standard measurement of tempo in music. Understanding BPM is essential for DJs when beatmatching and for producers when setting up effects like delay and reverb.

Each BPM value has corresponding delay times that create rhythmic synchronization when used in your DAW or effects units. This reference provides quick access to these values for all common tempos.
