Hi Can anyone help ?
when adjusting the tempo using the pitchbend on a midi controler the tempo jumps back to 130bpm.. If I set the tempo to say 125 Bpm and then try to adjust the tempo it jumps back to 130.. is there anyway of working this out? why doesnt it stay at the tempo I want?
cheers

Welcome Haydsta,

That's because of the construction of the pitchbend wheel I assume. On most keyboards it springs back to its mid position. Use a knob instead and you're all set to go.

hey,
Thanks for your help.. After some time I figured that out exactly.
It could be fixed that problem as If you want to use the pitchbend you must choose the tempo and stick with it in a live set.
