What is a BPM Song Length?

A BPM (Beats Per Minute) song length refers to the duration of a song based on its tempo. The tempo of a song is measured in BPM, which counts the number of beats in one minute. Therefore, a song’s length in BPM would be calculated by multiplying the total number of beats in the song by the minutes per beat (which is the reciprocal of the BPM). This gives an indication of how long the song would be when played at a certain tempo.

Example Calculation 1

Let's assume the following values:

Using the formula:

\[ SL = \left( \frac{3000}{120} \right) / 60 = 0.42 \text{ minutes} \]

The song length is 0.42 minutes.

Example Calculation 2

Let's assume the following values:

Using the formula:

\[ SL = \left( \frac{4800}{100} \right) / 60 = 0.80 \text{ minutes} \]

The song length is 0.80 minutes.
