  • Transport, tempo and the grid: the clock behind every DAW

    The DAW transport is the strip of play, stop, record and loop controls; the tempo in BPM sets how fast the song's clock runs; and the grid divides that clock into bars and beats so notes and clips snap into time. Together they decide whether parts line up. AI DAWs now read the tempo and key of a recording for you and fit the project to it.
