How music duration is calculated

A piece’s duration depends on its tempo (beats per minute), its time signature (beats per measure), and how many measures it contains. Total beats = beats per measure × number of measures, and duration in seconds = total beats × (60 / BPM).

This is the standard way composers, editors, and audio engineers estimate track length before recording or arranging a piece.
