Hey guys,

I'm trying to make a new Simfile for SM 5, but I don't really know how to calculate the Beats Per Minute (BPM) of a song. Do You guys have any suggestions or tips on how to find the BPM so I can start making the steps?

The song I'm going to do is This:


Thanks,
SoundFX09.

Listen to the song and tap to the songs beat on that page. Do it a couple of times though for it to be accurate as possible.

In case the tapping method isn't your cup of tea (though it is useful), this program is usually pretty good at detecting the correct bpm.

If you have FL Studio you can find the BPM by right clicking the sample and right clicking "calculate BPM"

Thanks for the Analyzer! It helps a lot now to find the exact BPM. Hope to have the simfiles done soon.
