Beat Detective skipping a beat
I am trying to generate beat markers in a tune that has tempo changes. There is an audio click track and I am using that with Beat Detective to generate Bar/Beat markers. everything is fine on the first 12 bars. Using Show Trigger Time bar 13 goes 13-1 13-3 13-4. Bar 13-2 is missing and the tempo between bar 1 and 3 is doubled from the rest of the tune. Beat 3 SHOULD be labelled beat 2. There is a dim light blue line between the purple lines on bars 1 and 3 (sorry I can't post an image). There is no audio where the dim light blue line is.
I've screwed around with the Selection resolution, High/Low emphasis, sensitivity etc but cannot resolve it. Thanks, Steve Mac OS 10.5.8 PT LE 8.0.3 MBOX 2 PRO |

Re: Beat Detective skipping a beat
I just found this in the manual regarding the Beat Detective selection:
"the selection should not contain any meter or tempo changes". If that is the case how does one generate a tempo map for a song that has tempo changes? |

Re: Beat Detective skipping a beat
Use identify beat for every 4 to 8 measures of the song. When you get to a meter change I still Ib it and then go to meter change in your menus, hilight the bar that needs the change, make sure it's in samples not ticks on the track, change my settings to 5/4 or whatever your doing, hit enter then apply.Bd from there should be easy.

Re: Beat Detective skipping a beat
Thanks for the suggestion. I've got tempo changes, not meter changes, though. IB was ignoring beats when I tried to apply it to a range. I wound up using IB for each beat, one at a time, using tab to transients. Tedious but got the job done.

just be slow and cautious and the earlier in the session you do it the better. but use the change meter under event, hilight the section and change settings. pretty easy. i have been working with a progressive group the last year so gotten REALLY good w it!! actually find the correct meter is sometimes the hardest part. let me know if i can help.
