ποΈ Delay Effects
- Use quarter note delays for prominent rhythmic echoes
- Eighth note delays create faster, more textural effects
- Try dotted eighth notes for classic U2-style delays
- 32nd note delays can create chorus-like thickening
π Reverb Timing
- Set pre-delay to 16th or 32nd note values
- Decay time can match half or whole note durations
- Use tempo-synced modulation for rhythmic movement
- Early reflections work well at 64th note timing
ποΈ Modulation Effects
- LFO rates based on note subdivisions create groove
- Tremolo at quarter note rate adds rhythmic pulse
- Auto-pan timing synced to eighth notes
- Filter sweeps timed to bar lengths (4 beats)
The BPM to Milliseconds Delay Calculator is an essential audio production tool that converts any tempo (BPM) into precise millisecond timing values for all note durations, from whole notes down to 64th notes, including dotted and triplet variations. The tool features an interactive tap tempo function for detecting BPM from live performance, quick preset buttons for common tempos, and specialized sections showing exact delay, reverb, and modulation timing settings that sync perfectly with the selected tempo. Perfect for music producers and audio engineers working in DAWs, the calculator provides real-time updates and professional-grade precision (to 0.1ms) for setting delay effects, reverb pre-delay, LFO rates, and other tempo-synced audio processing, ensuring all effects lock perfectly to the musical groove.
