Add Tempo dialog box

How to get there

  1. Choose Window > Advanced Tools. Click the MIDI tool . The MIDI tool menu appears.
  2. Select some measures. (If you’re editing a one-staff region, double-click to enter the MIDI tool split-window.)
  3. Choose MIDI tool > Tempo . If you’re in the MIDI tool split-window, select the region you want to affect by dragging through the "graph" display area or by selecting the handles of individual notes whose MIDI data you want to edit.
  4. Choose MIDI tool > Add.

What it does

The Add dialog box’s contents change to reflect your MIDI data type selection (key velocities). Its function is to add a fixed amount to (or subtract a fixed amount from) the tempo of every note in the selected region. Because it adds an absolute amount to every selected note, the Add command preserves the relative proportions of the existing values.

For example, you can specify that each note in a selected region should be played back in a slightly faster tempo by adding, for example, 5 beats per minute.
