Tempo Operations Window
The Tempo Operations window lets you define
tempo events over a range of time (or measures).
The time range is specified in the time format
chosen for your Main Time Scale. In addition,
the Tempo Operations window lets you:
• Fit a specific number of Bars|Beats into a
precise time range.
• Create tempos that speed up or slow down,
both linearly and over various curves.
• Scale and stretch existing tempos.
The Tempo Operations window has six pages,
one for each type of tempo operation.
Constant
Lets you create a constant tempo over
a selected range of time.
Linear
Lets you create tempos that change
evenly over a selected range of time.
Parabolic
Lets you create tempos that accelerate
or decelerate following a tempo curve that
changes the tempo more rapidly or less rapidly
over the selection time.
S-Curve
Lets you create tempos that accelerate
or decelerate following a tempo curve with a de-
finable breakpoint that determines mid-curve
times and tempo values.
Scale
Lets you scale tempos within the selection
by a percentage amount.
Stretch
Lets you select a region of tempo events
and apply them to a larger or smaller selection
area.
