Hi,

I've just re-calculated ("Analyze Files") ~ 2050 WAV files and from ~ 35 tracks SSL 2.2 PB3 (and I'm sure 2.0 too) NO BPM can be calculated.

There are tracks like:
Donna Summer - Love to love you baby (16 min mix)
Donna Summer - I feel love (disconet remix)

Does it help when I upload a track and you analyze it why it's not possible or is the BPM detection too complex and it costs too much time (which is no problem of course)?

Rane, Support

Have you set the range according to the original bpm of these Donna Summer tracks?
I would guess these files would fall in between the 68-135 range.
Make sure that range is set and drag/drop these files directly onto the 'analyze files' tab.
If its still not bpming them it may be due to a tempo change in the song which is confusing SSL.
In a case like this I would just manually tap in the bpm while listening to the file.
