Post by mullykid » Thu Aug 25, 2005 11:41 am

Go to arrange view and select the master track, here you can set the song's upper and lower tempo range.

Arrange view, Master track. Set your min. and max. tempo value. (ie - 130-140bpm)

i THINK that doesn't work in live5 anymore though. at least if you want to map a midi controller to certain range of tempo, you have to do it by assigning a controller to the master tempo and selecting the range from the controller assignment extra box (whatever it's called) in the bottom of live screen.

Where is the Master Tempo button or slider that I attach to a MIDI controller?? Can someone show me? Cheers.

Is that arcticle (above) about tempo ranges still applicable to Live 5?

if your in 5 go to midi map mode and assign controller to master temp (top left)
then at the bottom of the GUI you will see where you can set a range
you can even set it "backwards" so the fader will respond like a tech 12
