Websites with song bpms like https://songbpm.com/ and websites which find the bpm of audio files like https://tunebat.com/Analyzer never work for me tbh

I don't think they tend to be too bad, but they definitely struggle for a lot of types of music and I think tunebat doesn't consider decimal bpm, and obviously doesn't account for multiple bpms.

There is this one obscure bpm analyzer that someone had on their profile that I can't find that tends to be the most accurate one I found, but I don't remember where it is and it's a download. I couldn't get it to work on most of my computers though, so sometimes I'll get my friend to use it.

because of this, i highly recommend to learn how to time yourself. it's really easy once you get used to it!

also, your thread is wrong here as General Discussion isn't made for osu! related topics, it would belong here

It's probably generated by a bot most likely.

i think the bot bpm finders are used to more pop songs than camellia type songs. it could be another reason though
