BPM to MS Formula
The following formula is used to convert beats per minute to milliseconds.
ms = 60,000 / BPM * T
- Where ms is milliseconds
- BPM is beats per minute
- T is the tempo (i.e. 1/4 note, 1/8 note, etc.)
To calculate ms from bpm, divide 60,000 by the bpm, then multiply the result by the temp.
| BPM | Milliseconds (ms) |
|---|---|
| 40 | 1500.000 |
| 50 | 1200.000 |
| 60 | 1000.000 |
| 65 | 923.077 |
