Ever have to sync 3D and MIDI or music by hand? This program probably
could have saved you some time and odd math. Simply select your frame
rate, dial in your tempo and hit "Calculate". You'll get Frames per
Minute, Frames per Beat and Beats per Second calculated for you. You
can then keyframe your animation to the beat. Simple enough.
To set the Beats per Minute (BPM) by tapping to the beat (ie: you are
listening to the music), first click the "Tap BPM" button to the right
hand side of the window. A small window will appear where you just
clicked. You have 60 seconds to "Tap" the spacebar before the window
will automatically close. The program will take the last 8 beats you
tapped, average them and calculate how many Beats per Minute (BPM) it
was.
