It is within this area that Range Start, Range End, and Match Point markers can be positioned. Calculating an exact BPM, accurate to 4 and a half decimal places (e.g. 130.89209), is also performed in the Upper Waveform display area. To learn how to calculate an accurate BPM figure, click here.
Beat markers are shown within the Range area, and align with the beat grid. The purple beat markers indicate the 1st beat in a bar. If the 1st beat marker is not actually on a 1 beat, you need to adjust your Match Point marker.
