On a recent brand new collab, the song sent to me was at 63.5 bpm in the DAW it was recorded in and that apparently is the click tempo they followed. (Vocals, piano, drums, bass, guitars.)

I was also told that for some "humanization" the song has a few measures that are "slightly" different in tempo.

My goal is to create a steel track for this song. I loaded it into the Chord Wizard and the wizard came back close, but not "on" the tempo. I did all the things needed to set the first measure and opened it in BiaB.

I clicked play and within a few measures, you could hear clearly that BiaB was following a full tempo..... either 64 or 63 and the song's tempo of 63.5 was placing it, rather quickly, out of sync.

I spent around an hour trying to figure out a way to make this work without having to record it all again. Nada.

Anybody have a solution to this other than to record the original tracks again, this time to a solid tempo with no fractions and unwaveringly steady?
