ITunes BPM Counter

Hi there,
I'm trying to find a programme or a plug-in that allows me to check the BPM (Beats Per Minute) for my iTunes library, and therefore allows me to create specialised playlists.
There are many out there, but only for Mac, and I'm on Windows.
Please advise.

The program I use to automatically calculate and insert the BPM into MP3 files is MixMeister BPM Analyzer - http://www.mixmeister.com/bpmanalyzer/bpmanalyzer.asp
It's the best one I've found so far, it's freeware and it works on Windows and Mac. It doesn't work with AAC files though as far as I know.
Hope this helps!

ITunes' Skip Count only works with some of my iPods

iTunes does not count songs skipped on my 1st generation Nano, 2nd generation Nano, or iPhone. It does count songs skipped during play on my computer or from my 1st generation Shuffle. When I took my 1st generation Nano to the Apple Store they got iTunes to count a skip, but I haven't been able to recreate this feat. Is this something dependent on settings, or is it a glitch of some sort?

Ok. Here's my problem:
I've written a java applet and it works fine with the
appletviewer.
But it doesn't work with IE 5.5 with JRE 1.4.0 (But
I'm not sure if it's the browser's fault).
It works on a Linux PC with Netscape. (Not sure about
the plugin)...I bet the IE 5.5 is NOT using the Java Plug-in (what you're calling JRE 1.4.0), but is likely using IE's Microsoft JVM. You need to either make the hosting HTML explicitly tell it to use the Plug-in (via the <OBJECT...> tag instead of the <APPLET...> tag), or configure the plug-in to be used as the default JVM for the browser.

BPM counter script

just needed a manual bpm counter, partially to practice perl, but also cuz i dont like the audacity auto bpm counter. I like to manually click to the beat... but thats just me.
It works, but the output isnt rly pretty. should i print another line that just displays the instantaneous bpm (between the two most recent clicks) or would that just be to much info? In my opinion i think the avg bpm is all ya need, and if you screw your bpm up by missing a few beats just rerun the app.

Comes in handy covering songs

Not exactly what you are looking to do, but check out the following:
1) You can see and adjust tempo and time signature from the large transport bar.
2) You can add another tempo view to your arrange window by choosing VIEW→GLOBAL TRACK COMPONENTS→TEMPO from the pull down menu in the arrange window.
3) You can also get a window with a list of tempo and time signatures used in a song by choosing OPTIONS→TEMPO→TEMPO LIST from the main menu bar.
Any of this help?

No counter display on my bpm counter plugin.

When I insert the bpm counter on a track, it doesn't show a display for a counter like I've seen on every tutorial I've looked at. All it shows is a menu with the following: "Measured BPM," "State," and "Reset." It's driving me mad, and no tutorial I've seen addresses this, making me think it's just my Logic that has this problem. I've only had Logic for about a week, so maybe I'm doing something dumb, here...

LOOKING FOR: Auto BPM counter (no tap)

Hello there,
I'm looking for an app which can hear the Beats Per Minute (bpm) of a song and automatically calculate them, WITHOUT the use of a touch-screen tapper.
Do you know any ?
Thanks in advance!

Yesssss
All apps I've found with "BPM counter"; "AUTO BPM", or just "BPM" are all tap ones.

ITunes Play Count and Last Played not updating?

Hi All,
I have an IPOD shuffle 1GB 2nd gen, I'm using the latest ITunes 7.7.1.11, I have Windows XP SP3 intalled. On Aug 14th for some reason that was the last time ITunes Play Count and Last Played columns updated in ITunes. I listen to and recharge my shuffle everyday. When I hook my IPOD to the base it is recognized and ITunes opens and says it's syncing, then after about 30 seconds it says sync is complete, ok to disconnect, the flashing orange light goes green & everything seems correct except those 2 columns don't get updated, does anyone know how to make ITunes start updating that information again?
Thanks for any advice,
Steve

Hi Paul,
Just downloaded and installed iTunes 8.0. I played a few songs on my shuffle and synced it again, the problem remains the same, the last played & play count do not change. I wonder what happened on Aug 14th because thats the last time it worked.
Thank you again,
Steve

Does unmatched music uploaded to iTuned match count towards storage?

My apologies if this has been posted before.
When iTunes Match will be available, will any unmatched music that I upload to iTunes Match count towards the icloud storage limit?
I am receiving conflicting messages about this. Some people say there is only the 25,000 song limitation other say that unmatch music that will be uploaded count towards the 5GB storage.
Thanks.

iTunes Match does not take up any of your storage space: it's limited to 25,000 songs (in addition to any you purchased from the Store, because of course those are already on the server). PhotoStream doesn't take up any of your storage either, though it's limited to holding any one picture for 30 days.

Should Apple integrate a BPM counter in iTunes?

I think this should be included in the next update if possible. It can become a very useful tool for music lovers like me.

ITunes play counts are wrong. How can this be fixed?

I like managining my play counts, since I use a couple of smart playlists based on playcounts. However, I have this issue that I can't honestly seem to find a resolution to online. I see users with this problem, but no resolutions. Whenever I have to sync my iphone to itunes, it ends up jumbling up my play counts for some reason.
Example: If I have song A, that I've played 5 times previously. I play it 3 times, then sync my iphone, it'd end up with 13 plays (5 plays previous, then 5 plays again, plus the three extra plays.) I'll have song B, with 0 plays. I play it twice, sync again, and get 0 plays for the song.
Can this be fixed? I want song A to have 8 plays in iTunes/iphone, and song B to have 2 plays. This does not make any sense. I'm confused. I've heard it started with iTunes 8, but I can't downgrade since my iphone is on the latest firmware.

What should be happening is that each time you sync the device the number of plays made on the device since the last sync are added into iTunes as a global record. This system should be able to accurately support multiple devices. Because smart playlists can use play count as a parameter the devices must record both the current "total" and "device" play counts.
The first suggested fix for anything a bit random like this is to restore the device in the hope that it will just go away.

Problem when syncing: won't update itunes play count/last played etc

My old 2g shuffle was capable of updating play count/last played and adding songs to the recently played playlist when synced to my itunes.
Seems my new 3g shuffle can't do this.
I remember the trick with the 2g was to make sure it was switched off first before connecting/syncing, but I've tried all sorts of different combo's with the 3g and nothing will make it update song stats in itunes.
How can I make it update my itunes?

Ok, cool, I figured it out:-) Just in case anyone ever has the same problem, here's a quick rundown:
Basically it's the same problem you can get with 2nd gen shuffles if you're manually managing songs. So I just unticked manually manage music in the device summary and got the shuffle to sync music from a playlist I created/dumped all the songs I wanted into.

Itunes play count messed up.

I like to keep track of my itunes playcount and it is normally fine.
Lately, If I have got into a song and played it alot when I synch my ipod with itunes it shoots up the playcount to a ridiculous amount. For instance, a song just shot up to over 400 plays from around 40. I have played it alot...but no way that much. It has done it a few times now with songs I have played frequently within a few days. At first I thought I must have just under estimated the amount of plays but after this latest one there's no chance I have played it that much. Could it be anything to do with the face that I'm using my ipod speaker?
It's really strange and annoying me.

In lastfm, tools, options, ipod, do you have "always confirm ipod scrobbles" checked?
I thought itunes wouldn't increment play counts if music was manually managed, though.

BPM Counter Variable

FILE1---> XI --> IDOC
I have a BPM to receive the File. Do the Transformation and then send to R/3 as requested. This scenario is working fine for me. The only problem I have is, I need to send a mail at the end of the process, saying that how many IDOCs were sent to R/3.
I have introduced a Counter Variable(SimpleType,Integer) and counting each time an IDOC is created.
But when I add a new step to send the Counter Variable, I dont even see that variable in the Message variable of the SEnd Step!!!
What am I doing wrong?

Hi Mohan,
you cannot send variables - only messages
(there's no way to map variable to a message in BPM)
how can you do your scenario?
you can do 1:2 mapping
you can map your file to 2 kinds of messages:
- idoc
- message with one field(conuter)
then map file to those 2 messages and counter has to contain the number of idocs
then you'll be able to use it in send step:)
BTW
if you're not using combined IDOC have a look at my weblog:

BPM count

Scenario is N:1 (IDOC to FlatFile) using BPM.
BPM receive step will receive IDOC. But it should terminate when the number of messages equals to 500.
In which step I have to define this count in BPM?

Hi,
You can check this blog-
/people/pooja.pandey/blog/2005/07/27/idocs-multiple-types-collection-in-bpm
In the configuration-
Receiver Determination
1) Sender Idoc1 to Integration Process
2) Sender Idoc2 to Integration Process
3) Integration Process to Target system
Same no of interface Determination
No nee of dummy mapping. If you have done, no problem it will give any problem as it is one-to-one/
One Receiver Agreement. for Integration Process to Target System
No Sender Agreement required as it is thru implicit Idoc adapter.
Before do these, first create a Configuration Scenario and then import the BPM created in the Repository.

ITunes play count

I'm wondering if there is a way to get the play-count of songs in iTunes just for a specific week? I don't want to reset my total play counts every week, but I also keep statistics about which songs I listen to every week. Hence, it would be highly useful to be able to see what I played in my iTunes, without having to write it down on paper every time I played a new song.
Is there a way to do this?

First - thanks for the confirmation. At least now I know that this can't be done, at least not at the present time. Perhaps I could hope that a "reset-able" play-counter, separate from the total play count, is something that might show up in later versions.
As for taking things too seriously...yes, maybe I am, but this is my idea of fun. I've done this for more than 10 years now, and being able to go back and see what I listened to at certain points in time is more fun than it is work. That, of course, doesn't stop me from wanting to simplify the task of counting songs
