### Idiotic Question

- Quote

Post by Hahstuz » Wed Dec 02, 2015 12:39 am

This seems to be very obvious to just about anyone but me, so sorry in advance to asking this.
I've been trying to figure this out for some time already, and I honestly gave up.
I don't want any technical or mechanical explanation, just to know...
... How do I calculate precisely how many rows (lines?) per second will a combination of x Speed and y Tempo play?
(I'm considering "row" to be the single space where we place the note, volume and effects)
For example, through sheer trial and error, I came to the conclusion 30BPM with Speed 30 and Tempo 150 with play 2.z rows per second.
If I somehow get 15BPM, it will play almost exactly one row per second.
That kinda data.
Is it even possible to start with?
Sorry again.
And thanks for reading this far!

or you hate numbers with a passion.
I'm kinda both, and here am I anyway. What's your excuse?

0.4 ÷ Speed × Tempo, or the refresh rate, whichever is smaller. The former expression is independent of the refresh rate.
EDIT: Fixed.

Ey, thanks! I've seen some formulae about the subject, but nothing as straightforward as this.
