Clip BPM vs length?

Questions

Hi!
I’m using Ableton Link as source for BPM, works great!

But I’m confused about how clips are time-stretched, what assumptions to make.

I make my own loops, always 15 seconds,128 BPM. (because 128 BPM matches up neatly) But how do I make sure that VDMX has the correct original BPM and clip length?

I’m used to Ableton Live, where BPM for an imported audio clip is set to the BPM the song already has. If VDMX works in a similar fashion, then I’d probably need to set my clock’s BPM to 128 before starting Link, no? Or, does VDMX always treat clips at the BPM inferred from the length of the clip?

Searched some more, and the way I now understand it is that I should import all my clips to a layer with a clock set to 128BPM, and they will time-stretch correctly after. If I add any clips later, I’ll have to make sure that I’ve set the BPM back to 128 before importing.

Is this correct?
