Hi,
It’s not missing. It has been replaced by the Tap button on the Transport Panel, on the right side next to the Tempo field.
not enough:C13 is just killing my work flow
we need same features of beat calculator older version & if its already have pls provide tutorial.

As a pro Mix engineer this is really turning stupid.
Most stems I get don’t have a BPM so I have to calculate on a daily basis. Now that tool is gone. Tapping with a mouse is not remotely precise. Please put it back most professionals use this tool. Is Cubase turning into some kind of toy?

I get this change is legit bad for some folks, and hopefully Cubase will add it back.
But the tool isn’t really gone gone - you could fire up C12 and use it there. While that isn’t a solution, it’s a pretty benign & simple workaround.

Note that you can always assign a shortcut (by default it’s set to Shift+Space) to the tap tempo function.
Other than that, I do agree, I too don’t see a real reason to abandon the beat calculator, though at the same time I understand that the “tap tempo” was introduced to simplify things. I think that both types can just be there and users use what best fits their workflow 
As a side note, outside of this thread’s request, for users of the midi remote with devices with displays, I can provide a snippet for tapping/calculating tempo without necessarily applying it afterwards. I use it all the time, and actually find it more straightforward than opening two windows in a row, to tap tempo with a key, while I can do this more immediately and naturally with a pad or a dedicated button on my controller.

I guess I’ll keep Cubase 12 as a fall back solution. Fingers crossed they will reimplement the old functions

That’s my default for when every new version is released. Old versions of Cubase only vanish when a new PC comes along.
its not the same(correct me if wrong) with beat calculator i could select range of loop beat to beat and calculate it, no tapping needed and it wont change projects tempo, just show me range’s tempo info.
if its the new Tap tempo or old Beat calculator i need and prefer the Beat calculator
Bring it Back, Steiny !!!

Hi,
At this moment, the solution is to wait for the next update.
Obviously Steinberg is aware of it. Let’s wait, what will Steinberg offer in the update.

the most important feature in Beat Calculator for me, is the find tempo from range selection , don’t see it in the new tap mode update.
tapping along a loop even only for display, its not as accurate and comfortable to find loop’s tempo
Hi,
Can you see this?
FYI .Everyone who has mouse on computer can see that .
Instead of 1 click option why are you providing 6 of them ?
I challenge you 
creat a song for 8 (or how you want bars )
with multiple audio samples and excluding midis and then find a new loop and tell me how can you find the BPM in one click ?
Hi,
You can use the Tempo Detection function.
In the older Cubase version, you had to Tap the tempo. Now you have to Tap it too. What is the difference?
This is the difference:
You know, the calculator.
However, here might be something that everybody can use as a substitute:
- Select the event
- Set the locators so that the Locator Range Duration reflect the amount of bars/beats…
- menu Audio → Advanced → Set Tempo from Event
In this dialog you can select whether the tempo event will get created at the beginning of your project (Yes) or at the start of the selected event (No).
Catch 22: Cubase will insert another tempo event at the end of the selection bringing the tempo back to the former bpm if you chose No.

What @Johnny_Tomatoe has highlighted, the actual visual aid approximating the tempo based on the number of counted beats was the most valuable aspect of the Beat Calculator.
The first method shown in the video above also captures how benefical the Beat Calculator is just for the purpose of approximating the tempo.
