| What Program do you ues to find the BPM (Beats per minute) on a Loop or a song file if you don't know what it is on a DAW? I use Ableton Live or DJ software then i put the loop in my main DAW (Reaper) and set the BPM! Is there a easier way? |

| Live has pretty much the best analyser out of all of them. |

| Yep, Live usually works. Or if you don't mind doing it the slow way, you can always just try to sync up a drum machine with the loop after dropping it in your sequencer... |

I use Mixmeisters BPM Analyserto BPM tracks for Serato, works v.v.well
How do you get Ableton to BPM your tracks as it warps them to any speed? I always have to adjust manually the markers.
If I dont use that prog, I just place the loop on a Reaper track and play a 4/4 brat and adjust the speed until they match up. |

| I use the TAP-function in cubase. You tap the space-key to the beat and the tapped BPM will show in a few seconds. |

That's one way, you can also use the audio tempo definition tool. |

Click your fingers mate if you are a dj like me you will have impecable BPM skills. 1 and 2 and 3 and 4 sounds old and cheesy but it was developed by drummers the and is the off beat. Or if u cant count beats look at waveform and look for obvious starts to bars like the immediate point after the drop. Then cut wav line up to the start of a bar and time stretch 4 beats of it to fit a bar then u get rough guestimate of how much stretching/shrinking it needs.
Seriously click click click click |
Why would you count a minute of a track to see what the BPM is? And not only DJ's can count ;) I usually use Mixmeister BPM Analyzer (it's free!), or I will beatmatch a track with my midiclick in cubase.. |

I don't use protools any more for my main DAW, it was my 1st main DAW till i fell in love with Reaper. But one reason why i like Protools is because there is a plug in called Beat Detective! I think Reaper has some thing like Beat Detective but i have not found it yet!

Mixmeister Fusion is able to calculate BPM, and pretty accurate if I may say so! |
