Setting the Project Tempo from an Audio Loop

You can set the project tempo from the tempo of an audio loop.

Prerequisite

Your project contains an audio loop that is not in Musical Mode.

Procedure

  1. In the Project window ruler, set the left locator to the beginning of the audio loop.
  2. Set the right locator to the end of the last bar.

    This does not need to match the end of the audio loop, but its number of bars.

  3. Select the audio loop.
  4. Select Audio > Advanced > Set Tempo from Event.

    You are asked if you want to set the global project tempo.

  5. Perform one of the following actions:
    • Click Yes to adjust the project tempo globally.

    • Click No to adjust the project tempo only in the section of the audio event.

Result

The project tempo is set to the tempo calculated for the audio loop.
