TEMPO EDITING 303
Tempo Map Modes: BPM Mode / Grid Fit Mode
In the Tempo Map dialog (view page 308) you can choose between two modes:BPM
mode and Snap adjustment mode. The selection can be accessed from the menu:
Play/Rec > Marker > Insert Tempo change
Play/Rec > Marker > Insert grid marker change
In Snap mode you work exclusively with grid position markers and Time signature
changes.
In BPM mode you work exclusively with BPM markers and Time signature changes.
Modes can be changed at any point. The Tempo markers remain the same, but change
their type. The effective Tempo map and beat grid remain unchanged. You can toggle
between BPM markers and grid position markers at any time.
Example 1: Initially in the beat adjustment mode the beat grid is adjusted to a MIDI
recording which contains lots of tempo changes. Subsequently certain musical tempo
changes such as Rubato and Ritardando can be inserted for individual sections in BPM
mode. (The tempo track can only be edited in BPM mode, in snap mode it serves solely as
a display).
Example 2: The time signature of available grid position markers should be changed at the
start of the piece, subsequently however the beat grid positions should be placed more
precisely. As changing the time signature moves the beat borders and with it the grid
position markers, change the markers to BPM markers because this will unaffected by time
signature changes. This is how you swap to BPM mode. Now change the time signature
and the go back to the beat adjustment mode in order to adopt the beat grid changes.
