I am working on recording a song, unfortunately I do not have a drummer at the moment and have been using a drum program. One of my songs is played using a 600 ms delay. Does anyone know what tempo that song would be in?

As you can tell, I'm not that good with music theory. If you need more information for an equation like this let me know and I'll answer as best as I can.

Thank you!

The formula is pretty simple:

60,000 / tempo (beats per minute) = time (in ms)

If the tempo is 120 bpm, then the number of ms per beat is 500.

So, in your case 600 ms = 100 bpm
