Beat, bar and phrase lengths at 113 BPM
At 113 BPM one beat lasts 530.97 ms and a 4/4 bar lasts 2.124 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 1.883 beats per second, or 28.25 bars of 4/4 per minute.
Dance tracks are usually arranged in 8-, 16- and 32-bar phrases. At 113 BPM a 16-bar phrase takes 33.98 s and a 32-bar intro or outro takes 1:08.0 min. That is 1.98 s longer than the same 16 bars at 120 BPM. A six-minute track at this tempo contains about 170 bars.
| Length | Time | Milliseconds |
|---|---|---|
| 1 beat | 0.531 s | 530.97 ms |
| 1 bar (4 beats) | 2.124 s | 2123.89 ms |
| 4 bars | 8.496 s | 8495.58 ms |
| 8 bars | 16.99 s | 16991.15 ms |
| 16 bars | 33.98 s | 33982.3 ms |
| 32 bars | 1:08.0 min | 67964.6 ms |
| 64 bars | 2:15.9 min | 135929.2 ms |
Delay times at 113 BPM
Straight values follow the beat; dotted values are 1.5 times as long and triplets are two-thirds as long. At 113 BPM the popular dotted-eighth delay is 398.23 ms and a quarter-note slapback is 530.97 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) | 2123.89 ms | 3185.84 ms | 1415.93 ms | 0.471 Hz |
| 1/2 | 1061.95 ms | 1592.92 ms | 707.96 ms | 0.942 Hz |
| 1/4 (one beat) | 530.97 ms | 796.46 ms | 353.98 ms | 1.883 Hz |
| 1/8 | 265.49 ms | 398.23 ms | 176.99 ms | 3.767 Hz |
| 1/16 | 132.74 ms | 199.12 ms | 88.5 ms | 7.533 Hz |
| 1/32 | 66.37 ms | 99.56 ms | 44.25 ms | 15.067 Hz |
Reverb times at 113 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 113 BPM a 1/64-note pre-delay is 33.19 ms and a 1/32-note pre-delay is 66.37 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 | 33.19 ms | 530.97 ms |
| Medium plate on vocals | 66.37 ms | 1061.95 ms |
| Large hall or pad wash | 66.37 ms | 2123.89 ms |
| Ambient tail over two bars | 132.74 ms | 4247.79 ms |
Genres at 113 BPM
113 BPM is a moderate tempo, a little below the usual club range. It sits in the middle of the pop range (90–130) and in the middle 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 113 BPM
To bring a track at another tempo up or down to 113 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 113 BPM reaches 104–122 BPM; a ±16 % range reaches 94.9–131.1 BPM.
| Track tempo | Pitch change to reach 113 | Key shift without key lock |
|---|---|---|
| 107 BPM | +5.61 % | +0.94 st |
| 109 BPM | +3.67 % | +0.62 st |
| 111 BPM | +1.8 % | +0.31 st |
| 112 BPM | +0.89 % | +0.15 st |
| 114 BPM | −0.88 % | −0.15 st |
| 115 BPM | −1.74 % | −0.3 st |
| 117 BPM | −3.42 % | −0.6 st |
| 119 BPM | −5.04 % | −0.9 st |
Half-time, double-time and nearby tempos
Half-time of 113 BPM is 56.5 BPM and double-time is 226 BPM.
56.5 BPM and 226 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 4.66 ms, so neighbouring tempos are close enough to beatmatch with a small pitch move.
Frequently asked questions
- How many milliseconds is one beat at 113 BPM?
- One beat (a quarter note) at 113 BPM is 60,000 ÷ 113 = 530.97 ms. A 4/4 bar is four beats, 2123.89 ms.
- What is the dotted eighth delay time at 113 BPM?
- A dotted 1/8 delay at 113 BPM is 398.23 ms: an eighth note (265.49 ms) multiplied by 1.5. A straight quarter-note delay is 530.97 ms and a quarter-note triplet is 353.98 ms.
- What genre is 113 BPM?
- Pop and disco commonly use 113 BPM. Genre ranges overlap, so the drum pattern and sound decide the style more than the number does.
- What is 113 BPM in Hz?
- 113 BPM is 1.8833 Hz when one cycle equals one beat. An LFO synced to one bar runs at 0.4708 Hz, and one synced to sixteenth notes at 7.533 Hz.
