Tempo matching

[Apeirofobia]

I just posted another topic and learnt that Cakewalk only accepts beats as "quarter notes" when you adjust the bpm of a song.

It would be great if you could tap certain tempos in eights.

For example, if you're listening an 6/8 time signature song, and want to know the bpm, in Cakewalk you should tap in quarters, meaning you have to press space bar in the 1-3-5 eights,  which can be pretty hard in certain situations, or with more complex time signatures or songs.

I would love to see a feature that could give you more rhythmical versatility.

Greetings!

You can tap out in 1/8th notes. then use the formula based, tempo=

For example, if your BPM is set to 150 and you tap out 1/8th notes, divide that number by 2 = 75 BPM.

Thanks! But yeah, I know there are ways to get the tempo I need. But would be great to see an improvement in this subject, and make cakewalk more intuitive.
