Beats Per Minute

   How can I add a heading for BPM? The data is readily available from Mixmeister or other sites. I just don't see a method for doing it.

By heading, do you mean a tag to an audio file? --- I'm not sure if there's a way to have Foobar write BPM data to a file's tags unless the tag information already existed in the source file.

Or are you trying to add a custom attribute to Foobar's GUI? --- If this is true, then try %BPM%, if that doesn't work, then try $meta(BPM)

You should specify your player, but I'm going to assume Foobar2000. There's a BPM analyzer and you can just add a column with %BPM% as Isaac says. I have all of my music analyzed and exposed that way; the analyzer is a bit idiosyncratic, but it has an easy double/half that takes care of almost all of the misdetections. You can easily add the field to the tag editor as well.
