The Magic Tempos

Vibrations in a sound’s wave happen at a much faster pace than frames happen in video or film. Likewise, a musician may pick a tempo where the peaks of these vibrations - the beats in the music - don’t land on nice, even frame boundaries. However, there is a way to determine tempos that exactly line up with frames. If you can get your composer to use them, your job spotting the audio will be much easier later; you can even animate at these paces without hearing the music, knowing it will line up later.
