BPM help.

Hey, It's kind of difficult sampling in 3/4 time on this thing, but I found a good bpm a 4/4 time for this particular loop but the 555 doesn't seem to want to set it. The loop is 43 bpm, but when I go in to enter the bpm it skips from 42-44. Is this a common problem? I tried doing the tap tempo but when it finally got down to 43 it switched to 40 when recording the pattern.

Help me out!

Sometimes my 404 does this. I'm pretty sure it's because the SP only calculates bpm in whole numbers. When I had this problem I ended up using a sequencer that can do thenths of BPM or I made the beat by using the resample method and no sequencer.
