I have this burning question but I don't quite know how to ask it. Okay, here goes... I want to set a tempo to a song so that I can attempt a cover. I'm trying to create a simple 'guide track' with a click sound.
I've recently discovered my software allows me to 'tap' the tempo but I don't quite know how often I should tap along to the song. Does that make any sense? It can sound right if I tap very quickly or quite slowly but what is correct? What I mean to say is, how much space should there be between taps?
Also I discovered recently that there are options to set something called the 'time signature' for the project. It has a parameters for 'bar' and one for 'beat'. There is also one called 'Timebase' (PPQ). Could anyone explain to me what all of this means and how can I find out what time signature a song has?
Thanks for any advice
