Sony Acid Beatmapping Help

[H G]

Just got Acid and I'm trying to learn what I can by myself...I've seen some of Swi's vids on youtube and I got the basics on beatmapping full songs.

But I was wonderin how do you beatmap an effect like the 'hoys'.....in VDJ, I could set the bpm to 60 and it'd work no problem.
In Acid, it's telling me that it's between 254 and 300bpm (I can't set it to anything else) and when I have it as a loop, it just messes up.

Any help?

For shorter sound files, acid assumes that they are loops. If you switch it to one-shot, the tempo should switch to whatever the overall acid's bpm is set to (e.g. 120 bpm normally). However, there are times when it seems to have a default value and there's no way around it, I usually just render the effect as an mp3 through acid and import the newly created sfx into my project. That usually gets rid of that default issue. HTH
