How to Calculate BPM with Tap Tempo

Our Tap Tempo tool allows you to easily calculate the BPM (Beats Per Minute) of a song or rhythm. Follow these simple steps to use it:

  1. Start the Beat: Begin by listening to the song or beat you want to measure. Get into the rhythm to accurately tap along.
  2. Tap to the Rhythm: There are two ways to tap along with the beat:
    • Using the Spacebar: Simply press the spacebar on your keyboard in time with the beat. Each press should correspond to a beat in the song.
    • Using the Button: Click the "Press Me" button on the screen in time with the beat.
  3. View the BPM: As you tap, the tool will calculate and display the BPM in real-time. The BPM is updated with each tap, giving you an accurate measure of the tempo.
  4. Continuous Tapping: For best results, continue tapping for at least 5 beats. The tool keeps track of your recent taps to provide a more accurate BPM. If you stop tapping for more than 10 seconds, it will reset, allowing you to start measuring a new beat.
  5. Reset and Retry: If you want to measure a different song or beat, simply pause for more than 10 seconds, or start tapping anew, and the tool will reset the BPM calculation.
