The Amazing CUE CALCULATOR!

Hey all, thought I'd make a quick post about an EXTREMELY nifty little utility my Dad whipped up -

Say your scoring a film. You've got a 23 second cue to fill with beautiful music. Need to know the exact number of bars/beats/what tempo/meter to compose it for? WANDER IN HAPLESS DISARRAY NO LONGER!

Simply input the exact number of seconds, and tempo you would like it at. BAM. instantly displays the Beats Per Measure and its corresponding Measure numbers for the entire duration you entered. heres a snapshot

Amazing!

as you can see this also takes full advantage of the SMPTE time code method in minutes, seconds, and frames. It even offers solutions at + or - .3 seconds if you want to leave some wiggle room

this is a really useful tool that should be in every film composers desktop dock!

updates soon, will make this available pronto
