is live Incapable of Tempo Automation in Session view?

Post by ericneilj » Thu Nov 13, 2008 7:36 am

I've searched the forums to answer this question and haven't found one that's clear and straightforward.

my question: can I automate (i.e change the tempo according to an envelope [e.g. 85BPM to 100BPM over four measures]) in the SESSION view? Can this be achieved with a simple clip? This is easily accomplished in ARRANGEMENT view, but for live performance, i need to gradually change BPMs between songs WITHOUT a midi controller or mouse. and I'm not using the arrangement view, where i can automate the tempo in the master track. is there such a thing as master clips? I'm aware of the xxxBPM launch tempo. but that's a jump, not an envelope. most importantly, can this be done inside live, with no third party midi apps?
