Quick answer
Most custom music problems come from wrong BPM, long intros, tempo drift, unsupported platform expectations, or missing metadata.
The fastest troubleshooting path is to test BPM, confirm file rights and format, trim silence, then document the exact in-game symptom.
Custom music symptoms
| Symptom | Likely cause | Fix |
|---|---|---|
| Song feels late | Intro silence or first beat detected late. | Trim dead air and align the first strong downbeat. |
| Song feels early | The beat grid starts before the actual downbeat. | Move the first marker forward and retest in a short room. |
| BPM doubles or halves | The detector picked double-time or half-time. | Try half or double BPM, then verify by ear. |
| Tempo drifts | Variable tempo, live drums, swing, or unstable conversion. | Use manual markers or a steadier track. |
| File does not show up | Wrong format, wrong platform, wrong folder, or unsupported import path. | Confirm MP3/WAV/OGG, platform support, and file location. |

Console players should not expect the same PC-style custom song import workflow unless official platform notes change.
