PMJ is on a distinguished road
Echo effect to flow with beat/time of beat?

If I know the bpms of a beat, is there a formula that can be used when I adjust the echo's effect settings so the echo will match and be in time with the beat? I can play it by ear, but I jus looking for a short cut..

Thanks, PM

60,000 ms (1 minute) / Tempo (BPM) = Delay Time in ms for quarter-note beats
60,000 / 120 BPM = 500 ms
60,000 / 750 ms = 80 BPM
60,000 / 96 BPM = 625 ms
60,000 / 833.333 ms = 72 BPM
1/4 = quarter-note echo
1/8 = eighth-note echo
1/8T = eighth-note triplet echo
1/16 = sixteenth-note echo
Example: Song tempo is 120 BPM.
Set delay time to 250ms for eighth note echo.

Here is a webpage with a TON of music calcutlators you should keep bookmarked:
