Delay & reverb times at 150 BPM

At 150 BPM one beat (a quarter note) is 400 ms, so an eighth-note delay is 200 ms and a sixteenth is 100 ms. Dial any of these into your delay or set a tempo-synced reverb's pre-delay to the sixteenth and its tail to fade around a beat or two. The full chart above covers every note value.

The dotted-eighth delay at 150 BPM

The famous dotted-eighth delay — the shimmering, off-grid repeat behind countless guitar and pop productions — is 300 ms at 150 BPM (1.5× the 200 ms eighth note). A triplet delay is ⅔ of the plain note instead, giving a rolling, galloping echo; both columns are in the chart.

150 BPM in context

One hundred and fifty BPM is fast and relentless — the grid of harder dance styles, double-time trap hats and psytrance’s lower end. Halve it and it feels like a heavy 75; it is a great tempo for pushing your practice speed. Practise against it in the 150 BPM metronome — the only one with named human feels.
