Beat, bar and phrase lengths at 112 BPM
At 112 BPM one beat lasts 535.71 ms and a 4/4 bar lasts 2.143 s. The beat is not a whole number of milliseconds, so round to the nearest 0.1 ms when you type times in by hand, or use your plugin's tempo sync. That is 1.867 beats per second, or 28 bars of 4/4 per minute.
Dance tracks are usually arranged in 8-, 16- and 32-bar phrases. At 112 BPM a 16-bar phrase takes 34.29 s and a 32-bar intro or outro takes 1:08.6 min. That is 2.29 s longer than the same 16 bars at 120 BPM. A six-minute track at this tempo contains about 168 bars.
| Length | Time | Milliseconds |
|---|---|---|
| 1 beat | 0.536 s | 535.71 ms |
| 1 bar (4 beats) | 2.143 s | 2142.86 ms |
| 4 bars | 8.571 s | 8571.43 ms |
| 8 bars | 17.14 s | 17142.86 ms |
| 16 bars | 34.29 s | 34285.71 ms |
| 32 bars | 1:08.6 min | 68571.43 ms |
| 64 bars | 2:17.1 min | 137142.86 ms |
Delay times at 112 BPM
Straight values follow the beat; dotted values are 1.5 times as long and triplets are two-thirds as long. At 112 BPM the popular dotted-eighth delay is 401.79 ms and a quarter-note slapback is 535.71 ms. The Hz column is the matching rate for an LFO, tremolo or auto-pan synced to the straight note.
| Note | Straight | Dotted | Triplet | Rate (straight) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1/1 (one 4/4 bar) | 2142.86 ms | 3214.29 ms | 1428.57 ms | 0.467 Hz |
| 1/2 | 1071.43 ms | 1607.14 ms | 714.29 ms | 0.933 Hz |
| 1/4 (one beat) | 535.71 ms | 803.57 ms | 357.14 ms | 1.867 Hz |
| 1/8 | 267.86 ms | 401.79 ms | 178.57 ms | 3.733 Hz |
| 1/16 | 133.93 ms | 200.89 ms | 89.29 ms | 7.467 Hz |
| 1/32 | 66.96 ms | 100.45 ms | 44.64 ms | 14.933 Hz |
Reverb times at 112 BPM
A common way to keep a reverb in time is to tie its pre-delay to a short note value and let the tail fade within a longer one. At 112 BPM a 1/64-note pre-delay is 33.48 ms and a 1/32-note pre-delay is 66.96 ms.
The decay control on most reverbs is RT60, the time it takes the tail to fall by 60 dB, so the audible tail ends earlier than the number shown. Treat these values as starting points and adjust by ear.
| Reverb character | Pre-delay | Decay (RT60) |
|---|---|---|
| Tight room on drums | 33.48 ms | 535.71 ms |
| Medium plate on vocals | 66.96 ms | 1071.43 ms |
| Large hall or pad wash | 66.96 ms | 2142.86 ms |
| Ambient tail over two bars | 133.93 ms | 4285.71 ms |
Genres at 112 BPM
112 BPM is a moderate tempo, a little below the usual club range. It sits in the middle of the pop range (90–130) and near the low end of the disco range (105–130).
These ranges are common practice rather than rules: genre is decided by rhythm, sound and scene as much as by tempo, and plenty of tracks sit outside the usual numbers.
- Pop: typically 90–130 BPM — a wide band; the genre is defined by songwriting, not tempo.
- Disco: typically 105–130 BPM — steady four-on-the-floor sections are easy to count.
Mixing into 112 BPM
To bring a track at another tempo up or down to 112 BPM, move its pitch fader by the percentage below. Without key lock the key moves too, by the number of semitones shown; about 6 % is one semitone, so changes beyond that are where key lock (master tempo) starts to matter.
A ±8 % pitch fader on a track at 112 BPM reaches 103–121 BPM; a ±16 % range reaches 94.1–129.9 BPM.
| Track tempo | Pitch change to reach 112 | Key shift without key lock |
|---|---|---|
| 106 BPM | +5.66 % | +0.95 st |
| 108 BPM | +3.7 % | +0.63 st |
| 110 BPM | +1.82 % | +0.31 st |
| 111 BPM | +0.9 % | +0.16 st |
| 113 BPM | −0.88 % | −0.15 st |
| 114 BPM | −1.75 % | −0.31 st |
| 116 BPM | −3.45 % | −0.61 st |
| 118 BPM | −5.08 % | −0.9 st |
Half-time, double-time and nearby tempos
Half-time of 112 BPM is 56 BPM and double-time is 224 BPM.
56 BPM and 224 BPM are outside the 60–200 range of these pages; the half/double-time converter works with any value.
Each 1 BPM step at this tempo changes the beat by about 4.74 ms, so neighbouring tempos are close enough to beatmatch with a small pitch move.
Frequently asked questions
- How many milliseconds is one beat at 112 BPM?
- One beat (a quarter note) at 112 BPM is 60,000 ÷ 112 = 535.71 ms. A 4/4 bar is four beats, 2142.86 ms.
- What is the dotted eighth delay time at 112 BPM?
- A dotted 1/8 delay at 112 BPM is 401.79 ms: an eighth note (267.86 ms) multiplied by 1.5. A straight quarter-note delay is 535.71 ms and a quarter-note triplet is 357.14 ms.
- What genre is 112 BPM?
- Pop and disco commonly use 112 BPM. Genre ranges overlap, so the drum pattern and sound decide the style more than the number does.
- What is 112 BPM in Hz?
- 112 BPM is 1.8667 Hz when one cycle equals one beat. An LFO synced to one bar runs at 0.4667 Hz, and one synced to sixteenth notes at 7.467 Hz.
