I've had need this week to create a tempo map for a couple of songs made in free time, to allow me to match midi-generated parts to the recorded audio parts. In Studio One Pro v7, this was trivially easy: the DAW would detect the tempo and adjust the grid to suit. If it made errors, one could insert bend markers and manually manipulate them to make it work. In Studio Pro v8.1, this is no longer possible. Bend markers can only be added via the 'Detect Transients' algorithm, which isn't necessarily great, and they can't be manipulated. The only way that I have found to match the grid to the waveform is to insert tempo nodes and then manually adjust the tempo figure for the preceding region (which may be a sixteenth note, or it may be a bar) until the lines match the waveform. This is incredibly clunky and I'd dearly love to hear that I'm wrong, I've misunderstood the new DAW, and actually there's a very simple way of doing it.... Any offers?
