Convert FL Studio time to just Ticks

Question

I need to convert FL's bar/step:tick to just ticks. The end of the song as FL shows it is 42:04:095 but in just ticks it is 64416.

I need the tick number to use a external program.

Also, is there a way to insert controllers with specific parameters?

I'm using FL Studio 11.

What's FL's tick resolution? 480 ppq? If so, & assuming your 42:04:095 is bar:beat:tick, it's (42*[#of beats in a bar, presumably 4]*480) + (4*480) + 95 — Tetsujin, Mar 6, 2015 at 21:06
how would i find the resolution? the tempo is 150 BPM, notes per beat is 8. does it have anything to do with that? — Lil-G-Gamegenuis, Mar 6, 2015 at 23:13

Thanks to Tetsujin for formula

The basic formula is (Bar X Beats per Bar X Tick Resolution) + (Beats X Tick Resolution) + Remaining FL Ticks = Ticks
