DIGI, PLEASE READ...
 

first my apologies and appreciation to everyone who's posted and helped with the recent meter/tempo problems i've been having...here's the bottom line:

DIGIDESIGN TECHNICIAN(S):

The note value of a meter setting (3/4 or 6/8) SHOULD HAVE NO BEARING WHATSOEVER ON THE TEMPO OF A SESSION...

If you open a new session...set your tempo to 100 bpm...then set your meter to 6/8... THE TEMPO IN THE SEESION AND ALL CORRESPONDING READOUTS (DELAY PLUG-IN, REASON, ETC.) DOUBLES!!!...

this is not right...no way...absolutely unacceptable...

now...if you set it to 3/4...tempo stays exactly where you would expect it to...the problem is, the long-measure 'swing' of a 6/8 feel is not the same as the tighter, more circular feel of 3/4...in notation, performance, in all practicality 3/4 is not 6/8...

WHY IS THE TEMPO CODED TO CHANGE WITH THE NOTE VALUE OF THE METER?...

i beg you, please let me know...I KNOW I'LL ONLY GET ONE CHANCE AT A POST FROM YOU SO IF THERE'S ANYTHING ELSE THAT NEEDS EXPLAINING, PLEASE LET ME KNOW...

THIS MUST CHANGE...IT IS NOT RIGHT...VERY FRUSTRATING...

I see what you mean and agree that it should be changed.

Going through the same problem myself right now. I wished they would change it as well.

I had the same problem, when a 6/8 session I created in PT was opened in Digital Performer. Everything was twice as fast, and all of my tempo changes (extensive) were lost. Had to manually change all of the events. Took about 30 minutes in this case.

Really a pain!!
