Unusual copy and paste behaviour in midi sequence part

Hi
I create, let's say, 10 new tracks, with a new midi sequence part drawn on each one. They are all the same ... except that the midi sequence part on one of the tracks has unusual behaviour, as follows:
If I create a note event, length 1 beat (ie 0.1.00000) in any track other than the 'unusual' one, and then copy and paste it to the 'unusual' track, the pasted note is 50% longer than the original (ie 0.1.06000, instead of 0.1.00000). Is there a setting or property of a midi sequence part that could cause this ?

I didn't find any reference in the docs, or Google, or the Forum.

Thanks.

Please share a simple example project that repeats this issue, that will make it easier tot analyse the issue. Thx.

OK.
I have a file named "Unusual Copy And Paste.MuProject" that I can send you (size 2.25 Mb). Shall I email it to Image ?

Thanks

Thanks for the MuProject.
The reason is that part 2 has a tempo factor of 66.7%.
Hope this clarifies it.

Thanks very much for clarifying that - and for making me more aware of the 'tempo factor' property as a way of changing tempos per part rather than globally for all parts (via 'edit tempo changes --> list editor, etc.').

Am I correct in thinking that the normal (or only ?) way to edit tempo factor is via it's window in the part property panel. Also, is 'percentage' the normal (or only ?) parameter ?

Correct.

Yes indeed.
For example: If the main tempo is 140 bpm and a part is set to 50% it will play as 70 bpm.
This is also reflected in the sequence editor.

Many thanks !
