Strangely, when I move a clip into Live, recorded at 126.25 bpm,
it says 148 in the original BPM section of warp- even though I
have Live set at 126 bpm, the same as the loop.

When I attempt to change the original BPM in the warp section,
it goofs up all the warp markers and plays 6.5 of the 8 measure loop, or plays the loop at the wrong BPM.

Any work around for this- sometimes Live won't let me change the original BPM in warp also-

I want to dump loops from my multitrack sessions to Live to use playing
shows. Some of the loops are slightly pulled, meaning the downbeat doesn't
fall exactly on the "one". Could this be the problem?

So Am I missing something?

Is there a way to manually set the original bpm in warp so that my
loops can be played back at the speed I originally recorded them?
Is there a way to turn off this:

From the Live Manual:

"The ``Orig. Tempo'' value box displays Live's guess of the loop's tempo. Sometimes Live guess of the original tempo is wrong by half, or double. If so, correct this by clicking on the Buttons labeled *2 and /2, respectively. The sample plays at double speed when you press /2 because you are changing Live's interpretation of the sample's tempo, which only serves as a point of reference for determining the required time-stretch factor."

126 bpm is not half of 148 bpm !

Help....

Just type the original BPM in if you want.

Try "un-nailing" the last warp marker in your loop. Move that last marker until the bpm display matches the bpm you recorded at. Then "nail" down that warp marker.
