Ableton Forum

The title pretty much says it all.

Is it possible to, for example speed up from 120 to 160 in 1 minute?
But gradually, not a sudden tempo change.

easy.... automate the tempo on the master track in Arrange mode.

I tried it out but in Arrange mode I only seem to edit the Time Signature at some points.

In that other view, with the vertical bars, I can edit the Tempo on launch, but that's a sudden tempo change, not gradually getting faster.

Maybe I should raise 5bpm per bar in that vertical bar view, to slowly get to a very fast bpm?

How should I do this in Arrangement view?

Thanks

To add to this questions, is there a way to just slow down or speed up a track instead of globally? I have a drum track I need to fade to black but the music should be going strong.

My only alternative is creating a new clip with a slower ending.

Bump?

i would say SOLO the drum track and then automate the tempo to do what you want it to do...
RENDER then drop the new audio file created into ableton as a new audio track (WARP OFF).

remove all the automation you just did to the tempo and VIOLA.

Thanks for your suggestion, but I'm surprised that it's not possible to automate tempo per clip. I'll try what you said though. Thanks.
