Time signature of song not matching session clip count.
Post Body

I have a reference track that is clearly in 6/8 time: Awaken by Big Wild. Generally speaking, the kick is on the 1 beat and the snare/clap on the 4 beat. kick, 2, 3, snare, 5, 6 is the rhythm I hear.

However, when I try to match the pattern and tempo in Ableton, it more closely matches the following:

Where the kick and snare are both on the 1 beat alternating bars. Meaning that Ableton thinks the bar is twice as fast than what I'm hearing.

Not sure if I'm making sense, but can anyone point to the disparity? Am I not counting the song correctly?
