-{{ :wiki_-_waveform_alignment.jpg?300|}}Mark all your audio files, and try and find out where the first played note in the audio will be. Having studio multi-tracks or DIY Demucs stems makes this process easier, as you can more clearly see where the waveform begins. For most songs you should sync up the very start of this first note to the beginning of measure 3.1. For songs outside the 90bpm to 160bpm range, check the section below on how to handle it.+{{ :wiki_-_waveform_alignment.jpg?300|}}Mark all your audio files, and try and find out where the first played note in the audio will be.
