Chapter 18 Tempo 599
5 Paste the tempo events from the Clipboard (Command-V).
6 A position input box appears at the first tempo event, allowing you to alter the bar
position. If the first tempo change is not at the start of the bar in the passage, be sure
to alter the bar number, and leave the beat, sub beat and frame or tick values
unaltered.
7 Press Enter. The copied tempo changes will be selected, and you can undo the
operation if necessary.
Alternative Tempo Lists
You can use up to nine different tempo lists. This is useful in songs with tempo
changes, as it allows you to:
temporarily slow down the tempo when recording MIDI Regions,
temporarily disable tempo changes,
try out different tempo variations.
To switch between the different tempo lists:
1 Open the tempo list.
2 Choose Options > Tempo Alternatives > 1…9 and select the desired tempo list.
Other Functions
The entries in the tempo list interact with and affect each other. Please refer to the
Positioning Bars to Frames section for details. You can also make several
synchronization settings here. All other functions are identical to those in the Event List
(see “Using the Event List” on page 439).
Note: You can move any selected tempo event to the current song position by using
the Pickup Clock Position key command.
Tempo Operations
The Tempo Operations window is used to edit existing tempo changes, and to create
new ones. The window automatically displays the area you’ve selected for editing, and
changes are displayed graphically, in real time, as the tempo curve is processed, so you
can see what’s happening. The displayed tempo curve (which is calculated from the
tempo settings you’ve made) is shown in red.
The Tempo Operations Window
The Tempo Operations window can be opened from the Arrange window via Options >
Tempo > Tempo Operations, the Transport window Sync button pull-down menu, or by
means of the Open Tempo Operations key command.
The different functions in the Operation menu provide several interesting options for
tempo change edits, and changes to the sync reference. The lock symbol allows certain
parameters to be fixed, preventing them from being changed.
