    Default unexpected double tempo

    I created a song that switches from 3/4 time to 6/8 time in the middle. Technically a bar in 3/4 and a bar in 6/8 should have the same length. But when the 6/8 part begins the bars are played twice as fast as expected.

    Experiment with different player styles.
    You'll find the artifact you describe occurs in some styles eg. Swing, Ballad-Swing (not Ballad-Even/Melodic)
    but not in others eg. Bossa, Latin, Pop (except Shuffle)
    Interesting that Latin/swing behaves like the swing styles (even in the Latin section)
