Remix live: Manually entered information on samples

Hi!
I just got hold of Remix live, so I'm not entirely familiar with it yet. However, I can't really find a manual for the app so I figure I should ask my question here.
I imported a few samples from iTunes to remix live. It worked great, but it automatically identifies BPM and sample lengths in beats.
Is there a way to manually enter this, including any other sample information (well that'd be BPM, beats, key)?

Oops, maybe this should be moved to the iOS support page?

Moved it...
Not to familiar with the app, but in the other Mixvibes products BPM detection is needed to have the apps mix and sync with at the beat. So changing the values will make it work off beat. Unless you need to double or halve the BPM which was detected.
Don't know if this option is implemented (yet)

Thing is, that I rendered my own loops from one of my own projects.
Since I made the samples myself I know the true sample data, i.e. that they are are 64 beats of 127 BPM, not 63 beats of 126 BPM or 73 beats of 145 BPM.
Usually the autodetect works well when detecting beats/BPM on samples with simpler rythmic patterns like beats or so. But when it comes to a melody line that is not as simple or straight forward, it often gets it wrong which makes it out of tune/beat.

Understand your issue. Don't have the knowledge of the app to help you out...
In Cross (PC/Mac) there are settings for samples to bypass the autodetect. But don't know if it has been implemented in the Remix.
There might be an advanced option to set your own downbeats... But again just suggesting how the other MixVibes software works... Might be this new app has some implementations at the ToDo list..
