I'm not sure if i understood your quest correctly, but basically are you saying your music isnt alligned properly with the ticks?
1. All white/red/blue/etc ticks are based off the song's BPM and Offset, so if those ticks arent aligning with the song most probably your timing is wrong.
2. You can scroll the snap divisor tu divide the beats into 1/1 (white ticks), 1/2 (white and red ticks), 1/4 (white, red and blue ticks), 1/8 (white,red,blue and yellow ticks) or if your song is in 3 snap 1/3 (white and purple ticks), 1/6 (white, red and purple ticks)
