See Mentorship Plans130 BPM means 130 beats a minute, one click every 0.46 seconds. In classical terms it's around Allegro. One of the most common tempos in pop, rock and dance music. 120 BPM in particular is close to a default for a huge amount of music.
At 130 BPM, 8th notes come 4.3 times a second and 16th notes 8.7 times a second. In half time it feels like 65 BPM, and in double time like 260.
Lock in with a drum beat instead of a click: switch to the drum machine and pick rock or four on the floor.
Handy for setting delay times and checking how long notes should last.
