Tap tempo and delay

Tap a real button to estimate tempo from recent beat intervals, or enter BPM to calculate ordinary, dotted and triplet delays.

Your input

Tap the dedicated button to measure, or enter a known BPM. Then calculate delays.

3000 ms equals the slowest supported 20 BPM beat.

Outputs are cleared when the input changes.

Result

Enter your data or use the example, then run the tool.

Worked example

Taps every 500 ms give 120 BPM: quarter 500 ms, dotted 750 ms and triplet about 333.333 ms.

Method

Use performance.now for user taps and the median of the latest eight intervals. Quarter-note delay = 60000 / BPM; dotted ×1.5, triplet ×2/3.

Limits

Manual estimate, not automatic song BPM detection. Supported BPM is 20–400; long gaps reset history. Tapping updates the field; calculate separately for output.

BPM is displayed to at most two decimal places and delays to three. JSON retains the calculated values; tapping is an estimate, not a precision timing measurement.
