NAME
       bpm-tools - calculate the tempo of music files


SYNOPSIS
       bpm-tag [options] file

       bpm-graph file

       bpm [options] < file.raw


DESCRIPTION
       The  bpm-tools  commands  are used to automatically calculate the tempo
       (in beats-per-minute) of music, optionally displaying an  analysis  and
       adding  it  to  file 'tags'. The data from these tags can be especially
       useful for navigating a music library in DJ software such as xwax(1).

       The bpm command implements the algorithm on  raw  data,  but  the  most
       commonly used command is bpm-tag.


OPTIONS
       Options  are  described  by  the  commands  themselves.  Use one of the
       following for more information:

              bpm-tag -h

              bpm-graph -h

              bpm -h


EXAMPLES
       Tag a file with its tempo:

              bpm-tag "Daft Punk - Get Lucky.mp3"

       Calculate and display the tempo of a file without modifying it:

              bpm-tag -f -n "Gwen Guthrie - Padlock.flac"

       Tag a file, with a hint to look for a fast tempo:

              bpm-tag -m 120 -x 200 "Roni Size - Brown Paper Bag.oga"
