get a loop
go to main screen, count>open window, turn count on during play
hit play all and push the pad with your loop on it at the start of the bar
adjust the bpm in main screen until the ticks match the loop

as manual method. cut one BAR or many as you want of your track

then put it in a wave editor. note the sample lenght (sample end - sample start)

then :

BPM = 60 /((((sample end - sample start)/44100)/TimeSig)/Number of BAr)

Time signature = 4/4, 8/4 etc....
Number of bars = mesures
