Bar|Beat Markers can be dragged to new locations so they can align with audio clips that have been moved, or so that they can align to a slightly different point within an audio clip. This results in neighboring MIDI data being adjusted to align with the new tempo map.Because Bar|Beat Markers are sample-based and tempo events are tick-based, they behave differently when you drag them in the Tempo ruler.
