Metro BPM Without Transport

2000's icon

Hello,

Basic question. Is there an argument or attribute it is possible to give to metro so it works according to BPM and not MS? I don't want to use transport, just looking for some kind of direct instruction.

Thank you

use little ms to beat calculation.
1 tick to ms in tempo nn: (using default 480 ticks per qurter note)

expr 60000 / ($f1*480)
or shorted
!/ 125.

then multiply that with number of ticks in the beat you want.
-------
you can also try tempo object, but that one is working with
whole note fractions , which limits it a bit for the purpose
metro + counter in one object

BPM = Beats Per Minute
1 Minute = 60 Seconds = 60000 Milliseconds
To find the ms, divide 60000 by your BPM value:
ms = 60000/BPM
