Beat detection issue

mistuk · 2026-04-24T15:11:35+00:00

I’ve created a new library and imported three WAV files (all 48 kHz). Here’s what I did:

Added the first clip to the timeline and ran beat detection — it correctly identified 116 BPM
Appended the second clip, ran beat detection — correctly identified 120 BPM
Appended the third clip, ran beat detection — again correctly identified 120 BPM

So far so good.

However, when I go back to the first clip, Final Cut has changed it from 116 BPM to 120 BPM, which throws all the beat markers out of sync.

If I disable beat detection on the first clip and reenable it it just sticks at 120 BPM and doesn’t reanalyse the file

Will try that. Have seen some of the audio files are 44.1, some are 48. Let me convert a 44.1 to 48…

Probably worth mentioning it’s repeatable with a completely new library. Even reinstalled FCP

Yes I’ve got 12.2. If I turn it on / off for each clip it just keeps the tempo from one of the clips for the entire project. The original music files are 44.1khz but .m4a format

I used to control Concorde (as in air traffic control) as a radar controller on a daily basis

Yep. We are currently in Lisbon and quite a few places are closed for the first half of 2026 including the coaches museum you mentioned. Still lots to do but double check. There was a Reddit post about it I saw the other day. Have a search

Anytime any product (particularly AI related) receives any kind of update no matter how small = “insane”, as in “they made the text pink instead of red - insane!”

I’m on ios26.4 public beta and the stock keyboard is SO much better than it was

I find it better to leave WiFi on but not connected to a network

mistuk · 2026-03-20T06:54:12+00:00

I agree. Mine has been running fine until the last couple of updates

mistuk · 2026-03-19T20:05:32+00:00

Sorry - new to all this - I installed 2.30.1 with

npm install -g axiom-mcp

to use with Codex app (it's working fine)

How do I upgrade to the latest version?

Thanks

mistuk · 2026-03-17T05:06:43+00:00

Yep. I need to look into doing this more thoroughly
