BPM counter.....Or loop it up in soundforge and use the Edit Tempo feature

(beats)x(60 secs) / (sample length)

basically 2bars is 8 beats... so 8 times 60 is 480.... just divide 480 by the length of the sample...

simple... there's the bpm of the sample... i use this formula everytime....

just sample from turntable to adobe audition.... that way you know right away if you need to adjust the pitch on the turntable to get a 'rappable/singable' bpm....

knowledge.

I just use my ears, and do a little trail and error with my BPM until it fits. This works for me most of time.
