One other thing you could do is import your song into something like Audacity, then figure out at what points the beats happen and then convert the time into frames by multiplying the time by the FPS. It's more simple, but takes a bit more work than figuring out the BPM and going from there.]]></content>

			<content type="html"><![CDATA[First, determine how many frames per second your film will be.

Then, figure out the BPM (beats per minute) of the song. Divide 60 by this number to find out how much time (preferably in milliseconds) there is per beat. Then multiply your FPS with the time per beat and BOOM you have the number of frames per beat needed.

For example, if your music is 135 beats per minute, the time will be (60 / 135 =) 0.4444..... seconds per beat. If you animate at 15FPS you will need (15 * 0.444... =) 6.666... frames per beat, or 20 frames per three beats (to make it a nice and round number).

You can use [url=http://www.all8.com/tools/bpm.htm]this handy little tool[/url] to tap along with the song to find out the number of beats per minute. Some sense of rhythm is required, but the more taps you make the more accurate the measurement will be.]]></content>

Say its 15 FPS and every half a second there is a beat you wanna move the bricks at every 7th frame and so on........]]></content>
