Thanks Eddie,

Actually the BPM or the time signature has little importance to me if I am just playing this or any other song on my guitar.Like many guitar players I listen to the song then just play it by ear.

All these questions come as a function of the operation of software. For example some time ago I transcribed a song called "Rock Me Baby" in Finale. I did this in 4/4 first and it would not play out correctly. Next I tried 6/8, which also did not work. I then used 12/8 and everything went to normal.

The point to all this is, the song could be written in 4/4 or 6/8 and a good guitar player with sight reading skills could play it with no issue. The software in general is not that skilled...lol I see a lot of triplet based music written in 4/4 which has always seemed pretty illogical to me!!

Put a song in a DAW that the Time signature and BPM are not known with precision and the measures will not line up and the metronome will not work.

None of these technical issues cause me much of a problem when creating original music using BB or any other software because I just adapt to the limits of the software and worse, adapt to my limits of understand of the software....truly frustrating at times but usable.

Putting a cover tune in a DAW for the purpose of trying to learn the song and wanting to slow it down or loop certain parts becomes problematic at times.

I wish I could buy songs that all the instruments and vocals are on separate tracks!! I wish we had better copyright laws!! I wish we had better politicians...lol...lol

Cheers,

Billy
