Pistonsoft BPM Detector for Windows

Pistonsoft BPM Detector is a free Windows software that analyzes your MP3 collection to determine the bitrates of each song. It also saves the beat per minute (BPM) information in the music file's ID3 tag, allowing you to know the song's BPM with any player you use. The program aims to help DJs choose the right song on the fly and assist home users in selecting music based on their mood or activity.

The software automatically analyzes selected files and provides BPM information, which is a unit used to measure tempo in music or heart rate. The higher the BPM, the faster the song is expected to be. However, the accuracy of the BPM results for tested song files is questionable, as some strange results were obtained. Additionally, BPM alone cannot define a song's style.

While the idea of an application that can understand the type of songs and classify them accordingly is great, Pistonsoft BPM Detector falls short in achieving this level of sophistication. It can still be a useful tool for basic BPM analysis, but users should not solely rely on it for determining the style of a song.
