The tools, in one place

Most people arrive at BPMfinder for one job: find a tempo. That is the right place to start, but it is not the whole workshop. The tools below are built for the same kind of person — a producer, DJ, streamer, writer, or creator who wants a useful result without an account, a subscription, or an upload to a stranger’s server.

How the tools fit together

Use BPMfinder when you need a number: the tempo of a track, a delay time, a half-time check. Use the Soundboard when the work is live — drops, stingers, reactions, and the small sounds that make a stream feel produced. Use the music player when you want something to listen to or test a tempo against. The guides explain the parts that a tool cannot: why a detector disagrees with your ear, how to plan a set, and when a number is the wrong question.

The common thread is local-first: the BPM analysis runs in your browser, the player streams without an account, and the guides are readable without a signup. Some tools link out to a studio or a catalog, but the entry point is always a page you can use immediately.

What is free

The BPM tool, the delay tables, the guides, the music player, the games, the SkillHub catalog, and the Soundboard FX tab are free to open. Optional support links on some sites help pay for hosting and time; they do not unlock a different version of the tool or a ranking.

How this hub is maintained

This page is the map, not the product. Each card points to the canonical tool or site; if a tool moves, the card is updated in the same pass. The hub is deliberately ad-free: it is a directory, and a directory with ads around every link is a worse experience than a clean list.

We do not list a tool unless it is live and free to open. A “coming soon” card is only added when the launch page already exists. If a link is broken, the contact page is the fastest repair route.

Start with the job

  • I have a track and need the tempo. Open the BPM Finder, drop a 20–40 second section, then check half/double and tap tempo.
  • I am going live. Open AI Talk Radio and choose the Soundboard tab for drops, stingers, and reactions.
  • I am producing. Use the delay table to turn tempo into note-value milliseconds, then dial the effect by ear.
  • I am learning. Read How to find a song’s BPM first; it explains the workflow the other guides assume.

FAQ

Are all of these tools free?

Yes. The tools listed here are free to open. Some sites accept optional support, but no tool requires a payment or an account.

Where is the soundboard?

Open AI Talk Radio, then choose the Soundboard tab. It is part of the live studio, not a separate download.

Do the tools upload my files?

The BPM tool analyzes audio in your browser for tempo detection. The player streams from the catalog. The privacy policy covers the BPMfinder side in detail.

Which tool should I start with?

If you have a track and need its tempo, start with the BPM Finder. If you are planning a live stream, start with the Soundboard. If you are learning, start with How to find a song’s BPM.
