Well Jimney Cricket and jumpin bull frogs . . . you do agree!! smile
I re-read my original post and don't see it as confusing, yet confusion emerged.

I can't speak to Reaper. If you reduce the tempo of the audio file by say 20% does Reaper still maintain the correct bar numbering automatically? In Studio One an adjustment needs to be made.

For me there’s no better place in the band than to have one leg in the harmony world and the other in the percussive. Thank you Paul Tutmarc and Leo Fender.
