Setting Aeros Tempo

Aeros Loop Studio Feature Requests

Hello,

I’m using the Aeros as master and the BB as slave. This, as far as I can tell, means that you need to set the tempo on the Aeros (rather than having the Aeros follow the BB, when Aeros is the slave).

But I find setting the tempo on the Aeros to be kind of annoying. First, the slider is very difficult to get to the actual point that you desire. It tends to skate before or after a few bpm, and it can be challenging and a little time consuming to get it right. Is there any other way to set the tempo that I’m aware of.

Also, when I do get to the proper bpm, say, 135, and then I save it. It will routinely, I mean almost all the time, save it one beat slower, i.e., 134. I tried setting in one beat higher, eg. 136, to get it 135, but then it saves it at 136. I cannot figure out any way to save the exact bpm that I want.

Has anyone else had this problem, and do you know a fix?

Thanks

Hello,

Thank you for reaching out! The tempo on the Aeros should be set using the slider. Alternatively, you can send a MIDI message to the Aeros using a device like the MIDI Maestro or the BeatBuddy to adjust the tempo.

I understand your issue, and I’ve forwarded it to the dev team for consideration.

If you have any further questions, feel free to ask!

Thanks, Daniel.

I did figure out how to use the hands free option to move the slider with the wheel. Still, not successful with trying to get the beats the same in the final outcome as what I put into it. It seems to only be a problem on multiples of five: i.e., 135 becomes 134. 145 becomes 144. On the multiples of 10, 120,130, etc. It works fine.

To find the tempo
When you are on the line of the tempo, tap edit (on bottom right) and use the scroll wheel to adjust the right tempo :wink:

I adjust the tempo using the tempo button on the BB to send tempo to all units, Aeros included. The Aeros is still master.

Hi Kim
Aeros is master too for me, but I cannot adjust the tempo from te BB to Aeros, I go trough Maestro too
What’s your cable management ?

I wonder how this is possible, if Aeros is the master, the little incoming arrow of the BB does not allow it. What parameters allow this? Same question as Steve. I admit that I wish it were possible.

@NYHC and @Marco76: I’m on my way for a weekend holiday, but will have a look at it on Monday and report back to you guys.

@NYHC and @Marco76: No, I was wrong. I cannot adjust BPM from the BB with Aeros as master. Its been a while since I used my looper, but at one point I was able to do that. Maybe it changed with the latest update? I have the latest Beta software.
Sorry for the misinformation, guys.
