110 BPM

How long is a beat at 110 BPM?

At 110 BPM a quarter note lasts 545.45 ms (60,000 ÷ 110). An eighth is 272.73 ms, a dotted eighth 409.09 ms, a sixteenth 136.36 ms and a sixteenth triplet 90.91 ms. A one-beat LFO runs at 1.83 Hz, and one 4/4 bar lasts 2,181.82 ms.

quarter note (ms) = 60 000 ÷ BPM;  note = quarter × q;
dotted = note × 1.5;  triplet = note × 2/3;  rate (Hz) = 1000 ÷ ms;
bar = quarter × beats × 4 ÷ unit;  samples = seconds × sample rate

Worked example

A funk track at 110 BPM with an LFO-driven auto-wah on the guitar

1Quarter note: 60,000 ÷ 110 = 545.45 ms
2Eighth note: 545.45 ÷ 2 = 272.73 ms; dotted: 272.73 × 1.5 = 409.09 ms
3Sixteenth triplet: 136.36 × 2/3 = 90.91 ms
4LFO once per beat: 1000 ÷ 545.45 = 1.83 Hz
5Hall reverb: pre-delay 1/64 = 34.09 ms, decay 4,329.55 ms to end on 2 bars

At 110 BPM: 545.45 ms quarter, 409.09 ms dotted eighth, 90.91 ms sixteenth triplet, 1.83 Hz per beat.

Frequently asked questions

What is the dotted eighth delay time at 110 BPM?

409.09 ms. An eighth note at 110 BPM is 272.73 ms, and a dot adds half again: 272.73 × 1.5 = 409.09 ms. The dotted quarter is twice that, 818.18 ms, and the plain quarter 545.45 ms.

What music is made at 110 BPM?

Mostly funk, indie and disco-influenced pop. 110 BPM is a common funk and indie tempo. Its beat is 545.45 ms, a repeating decimal, so hardware set to 545 ms is as close as most units get; the half-millisecond error is inaudible over a few repeats.

What is 110 BPM in half time and double time?

Half time is 55 BPM, with a 1,090.91 ms quarter note; double time is 220 BPM, with a 272.73 ms quarter note. A delay set to a quarter note at 110 BPM is a half note in double time and an eighth note in half time, so it stays in sync either way.
