The BPM estimated by beaTunes is twice/half as fast as the actual BPM. Why is that and how can I fix this?
To most BPM analyzers (incl. beaTunes) a song that has a BPM of 120 looks very much like a song that has a BPM of 60 or even 30. Therefore you need to specify the approximate range of BPM you expect, when you start the analysis. However, sometimes this is hard – especially when you analyze hundreds of songs.

Alternatively you can also select the song in the library view and click ‘Analyze Song’. In the analysis options dialog choose an approp
