I don’t think it’s a mistake in EZKeys.

If your partner has correctly created a 6/8 song at a tempo of 80, you will be tapping your foot at 80 beats per minute. Regardless if the time signature is called 2/4, 4/4, 6/8 or 12/8.

If your partner has selected 6/8 time signature in the DAW, remember there are two variants of 6/8. The usual one has three 8th notes per beat, and the other one has two 8th notes per beat. If your partner has set that up wrong in their DAW, you would see the issue where the DAW thinks it is tempo 80, but the correct tempo if you tap your foot every three triplets is 53.33.
