I realize the bar numbers don't change due to tempo changes.
But the bar numbers displayed in your DAW as the audio file is playing can be misaligned with the bar numbers shown in the sheet music.

The notes in bar 12 in your sheet music (the truth) may or may not be the notes being played when the cursor of your DAW passes into bar 12.

One easy way to see this is if the audio file contains a 2 bar count in when the sheet music has no such count in. The DAW as it plays the audio file will tell you that the music starts on bar 3 but the sheet music says the music starts on bar 1.

3-1=2 So you have a discrepancy of 2 bars.

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.
