I have a stereo recording of a gig last Friday with a guy who played his keyboard with a drum machine. The drum machine was recorded low so I thought I would lay down some RD's over the top just for fun. The song is Europa which is a ballad and the tempo is 70. Since he used a drum machine the tempo is fixed but somehow it's not an exact number. My metronome says the tempo is 70 so I first set the tempo in RB, imported the file and generated a drum track and it doesn't match so I decided to try the ACW.

The ACW created a tempo map and it keeps coming up with a tempo of 141.555 in 4/4 time. The song is obviously a ballad at half that speed in 4/4 time. The problem is now any RT/RD's I may want to generate are all going to be at double time.

It seems weird to me that his drum machine is being interpreted as a fractional tempo. I'm sure he just used 70. I guess that's some kind of difference in the internal clock speed between his machine and RB.

Any way to fix this?
