MixMeister BPM Analyzer is a free program you can use to determine the exact BPM (beats per minute) of any song without DRM.

MixMeister is available for free to download from
http://www.mixmeister.com

  • Calculate extremely accurate BPM counts for any song
  • Drag and drop music files from Windows Explorer
  • Display and sort files by Title, Artist, or BPM
  • Update ID3 tags in your music files with exact BPM information
  • Easily print BPM reports for your entire music collection
  • Export BPM counts for use in other programs
  • Free to use and distribute for non-commercial purposes

    • To find the bpm of a song from within iTunes simply command click (right click) on the tune and select SHOW IN FINDER.

    This will open up a finder window.
    From here you can drag and drop the tune directly into the MixMeister window.
    The bpm will be stored in the ID3 tag of your tune.

    NOTE: This can only be done with tunes that are not DRM protected.

    HOW TO REMOVE DRM from iTunes purchases.

    When you have bought music from the iTunes Store in the past the files will probably be copy protected by Apple’s FairPlay DRM system.
    This system was put in place to protects the rights of the artist and publisher by making it difficult for the consumer to distribute copyrighted material. Fair enough? Unfortunately this system prevents you from playing your DRM’ed music on a non-iPod.

    Apple now offers DRM-free tracks but for those of you with tunes that are still protected you can remove the DRM by burning the tunes to CD from iTunes and then re-importing the CD.
