Frequently Asked Questions

How do you calculate quarter note delay milliseconds from BPM?
Quarter Note (ms) = 60,000 / BPM. For 120 BPM: 60,000 / 120 = 500 ms.
How are dotted and triplet delay times calculated?
Dotted notes are 1.5 times the standard note length (e.g. 1/8 dotted = 1/8 note × 1.5). Triplet notes are 2/3 of standard note length (e.g. 1/8 triplet = 1/8 note × 0.667).
