Topic: Script to add a beat grid anchor

This topic is old and might contain outdated or incorrect information.

Hi all,

Is there a way of adding a beat grid anchor in a track & making it beat 1 using a script?

It would be nice to pause the track at the desired point & simply press a button/pad to add an anchor point. I find the whole process of using the BPM editor infuriatingly bad. It never seems to want to make the new anchor point beat 1.

could set a Apoi with
set_firstbeat

you would probably need to do the same with loadPoint or somewhere early in the song too.

Thanks for replying.

set_firstbeat moves the whole beat grid to that position

hence the reason why you'd need a apoi near the start or at loadpoint.
An imperfect solution but a solution
