Hi Chad, Identify Beat doesn't work in that manner. Identify beat identifies any given point as a particular bar|beat. In other words, it doesn't work with selections. You navigate to a particular point in the timeline, bring up Identify Beat with Command-i and type in the bar/beat number it's supposed to be rather than what Pro Tools thinks it should be. Once you've established the first and second points, Pro tools will interpolate the rest of the bars and beats but will certainly be only somewhat correct. You'll have to define several points within a piece to make sure the bars and beats truly line up with the audio. Usually every 8 or 16 bars seems to work well. If you establish bar 1, beat 1 and bar 9, beat 1, moving to bar 17 will probably get you really close to where bar 17, beat 1 actually occurs. You might find that the downbeat seems to actually fall at bar 16, beat 4 and 980 ticks or maybe bar 17, beat 1 and 23 ticks. whatever the case, get the insertion point to the actual downbeat, type Command-i and then just type 17 and hit Return. That position will now be considered as bar 17, beat 1 with 0 ticks.
