This limit is pretty annoying(when you are making experimental music). Is there a way to bypass it maybe with max/msp or something?
----
there is also fx's/(like delays, phasers), vst's rates which are acting accord to bpm too, it's not only about midi notes, that's why doubling midi notes is not 999bpm bypass and by doubling notes you can't make GRADUAL tempo changes.

Will be added as a feature in v9.99

change the time signature to /8 /12 or /16

Well let's say you put 32nd notes on a 20bpm track and crank it up to 999bpm. Your frequency of those notes only ends up being 7992 cycles per min (or 133.2 per second). Nowhere near an interesting audio range.
just playing.

but yeah it seems like there is no other way than doubling the notes to get faster

If you change your metronome to 1/8th notes, change the auto-quantize to 1/32nd notes, and change the time signature to 8/4, wouldn't you effectively has the same result as doubling the 999 bpm to 1998 bpm?

Me too but it occurs to me that anything at that tempo would be beyond the human audio range, no?

well it depends on how you put events on timeline. if i put drum loop on 999bpm i still can hear separate kick's and snares. It's still not beyond brain range.
I'm interested in tempo changes/tempo automation, sound accelerating and slowing down and for me go from 20 bpm to 5000bpm back to 120bpm in 3minutes would sound interesting and there is some software which could to that (supercollider). I just wish ableton could do that
