You could try to determine this by recording a 4x4 kick-track and loading this in ACID.
ACID kan determine the BPM of an audiofile.

If I had the time, I'd do it for you... but I'm leaving for London to celebrate a well-earned short holiday

Yeah, one could BPM tap or load the sample into ACID or Ableton Live, but it's srt of nonsense. I wish the software would have brought a BPM value instead of those cryptic speed values.

Some sort of calculation must be possible...

When you measure something in the reality, Not when you calculate it.

Example, the circonference of a circle can be empiric: you measure it with a meter, or "theorical": you multiply its ray * ray * 3,14 (or something).

BPM = ray * ranging-1 *3,14

BPM is calculated with maths so simple even I can understand it. You only need to know the periodic time of one bar.

It would be worth taking a number of samples over a length of time though, as c64's tend to drift a lot. So by sampling a number of loops at different points in your recording you could work out some sort of mean average tempo for each value....

hi. i'm new here. i plan on sampling loops in every tempo on p64 and posting their bpm equivalents here when I receive my cart (this week!) if anyone else has done this please let me know so I don't waste the time. THANK YOU!
