Eddie, which Audio Chord Wizard, or ACW for short are you using?

Realband has an ACW. Band-in-a-Box (BiaB) has a different ACW accessible as a button in the Audio Editor, on the Views button strip and two places in the menu bar. The Band-in-a-Box ACW is newer and more accurate than the RealBand ACW.

The RealBand ACW needs for the first bar setting to be as accurate as possible. The same can be said for the BiaB ACW but it does a better job of guessing where the first bar is.

If an audio file has modulations or tempo variations it helps the ACW if you separate the audio file into sections so the changes are minimized.
