I need some help to fins onde. :oops:

The reason is that I'm working with some old toy keyboars and I do not want to time stretch or chop loops to synchronize stuff

Not really a plugin but I used to use Mixed in Key. You could always find the tempo yourself which is always handy to know how to do

I've always used Logic's inbuilt feature to be quite helpful whenever I've needed it. It doesn't always have it right, it might be double or half than what it suggests, but thats easy to figure out. This isn't helpful to you, though, if you're not running Logic.

The other thing I've done is taken a tap-tempo delay, like H-Delay which has a huge tap button. I then tap in time with the music and observe the time in milliseconds. I'll use the average number to calculate a bpm, and round it. It might be off slightly, so you have to go in and check the alignment of the beats after making sure the first one is aligned. If the beats in the middle and at the end are pretty much aligned then job done. If not then you have to tweak the bpm until the do line up. Generally in whole numbers as people don't usually write with decimal bpms. If it's a live band, though, then its a different story and their tempo is often varied too.

But all this is a bit time consuming which is why I usually stick to using Logic's built-in functionality.

Haha, I found out that this is a post from 5 years ago. The webpage you posted can no longer be accessed normally. I have also created an online tool that can calculate song bpm by clicking. It also supports rhythm online practice, conversion of bpm to milliseconds, bpm delay calculation and other functions. Friends who need it are welcome to try Professional BPM Measurement Tools
