finding beats per minute

Software to find the beats per minute for digital music files.
I would like to find a program, preferably free, that will scan a list of sound files and find the BPM for each one. I don't want a stand alone beat matching program, as I do not want to modify the music. Any other tools for crafting music sets with minimal processing of the sound files appreciated. I'll be assembling in Audition.

ask the dj... but not free. oriented toward beatmatching but it looks like it can go thru all your mp3s and add the BPM to the id3 tags.

Best answer: This recent question led me to the BPM Analyzer.

Best answer: You can use AnalogX's nice free utility, TapTempo!
It's manual, though.

The trail version of MixMeister does auto-BMP discovery.

Response by poster: Thanks NYCinephile, that's exactly what I was looking for. (stungeye, its a free standalone tool from MixMeister.)
And, PowerCat, I can use TapTempo to check the accuracy of BPM Analyzer!
