100 recordings on this site sit at 99 beats per minute once each one's analyses are reduced to their median. A score would call that Andante, by the ranges printed on the data page.

One beat lasts 606.1 milliseconds. That makes an eighth note 303 ms, a dotted eighth 454.5 ms and a sixteenth 151.5 ms — the delay times that will sit in time with anything at this tempo.

Half time is 49.5 BPM and double time is 198; a tempo detector that disagrees with this page by a factor of two is usually counting one of those instead.

11 of them are in A major, more than any other key at this tempo.
