A BPM of 70 is equal to 140 BPM etc

How can you change your BPM so it always gives you numbers like 140 and no longer 70?
Hope you understand what I'm saying

Well.. there is no way to specify a range within which BPM's are predicted.. the reason some 140 BPM songs are detected as 70 is that one or two beats in every bar might be slightly fainter than the other so that the FAME-algorithm fails to detect those and thereby getting a lower beatcount within a given timeframe...

I suggest editingt the BPM-info manually (Alt+B is the default shortcut, or rightclick any file in the browserwindow) if you really want them to be sorted correctly..
Personally if I'm playing a 140BPM-tune I check both in the 140- and 70-range of BPM's for the next tune so that I need not worry about misscalculated tracks that I haven't had the time to rewrite the BPM-info for.

I still say it'd be VERY cool if somewhere on the skin there was an area where we could use the mouse to "beat tap" manually while the song is playing, and it would automatically edit the BMP.
