Musical Tempo Delay Calculator

Musical Tempo Delay Calculator MCP Connector for Claude

A+

Calculate precise millisecond delays for musical note durations at constant or ramping tempos.

3 tools Official Updated Oct 1, 2026 Official Vinkius Partner

This MCP server provides deterministic tools for music producers and composers to calculate exact rhythmic intervals in milliseconds. Use calculate_static_delays to find millisecond values for standard notes like quarter or eighth notes at a fixed BPM. Use calculate_ramp_delays to predict how these durations shift during a linear tempo transition (ramp) across a set number of bars. It also includes get_rhythmic_map to identify all supported note types.

What are the millisecond delays for a 120 BPM tempo in 4/4 time?

At 120 BPM in 4/4, the delays are: Whole Note: 4000ms, Half Note: 2000ms, Quarter Note: 500ms, Eighth Note: 250ms, Dotted Eighth Note: 375ms, and Triplet Eighth Note: 166.67ms.

Calculate the quarter note delay for a ramp from 100 to 120 BPM over 4 bars.

For a ramp from 100 to 120 BPM, the quarter note delays are: Start: 600ms, Midpoint: 550ms, and End: 500ms.

List all available rhythmic intervals.

The available intervals are: WHOLE_NOTE, HALF_NOTE, QUARTER_NOTE, EIGHTH_NOTE, DOTTED_EIGHTH_NOTE, and TRIPLET_EIGHTH_NOTE.

You can use the `calculate_static_delays` tool by providing the BPM and the time signature.
