Topic: Fluid Beat Grid
Hi,

Is any else experiencing issues with 6/8 time signature songs with fluid grids?

What's your issue? What's the track?

Obviously VDJ regards everything as being 4/4 (currently anyway) because it's the most widely used, so the analysis won't automatically detect that something is 6/8. Therefore you'll have to get your hands dirty.

Personally I've not tried to analyse tracks that stray far from 4/4 so I can't even comment on how easy (or not) editing might be.

IMO it would be nice to have an option in the editor to set a time signature.
 

Well, pretty much any song with 6/8 signature that has a variable beat grid is showing the wrong bpm values. It’s all over the place, that includes Armenian, Russian, Persian and etc. At least before we were able to use the multibpm and VDJ would pick up the changes and make the correct corrections. At this point, a lot of djs I know in our community are struggling and had to revert back to an older version.
