Apple Logic Pro 9 - Manual (Page 1023)

Logic Pro provides several different tools and methods for creating and editing tempo
events. Tempo can be changed or edited in the Transport bar, the global Tempo track,
the Tempo List (in the Lists area), with a tempo fader in the Environment, or with the
Tempo Operations window. In most cases, the global Tempo track or Tempo List will be
your first port of call. This chapter discusses these tools, and describes the relationship
between tempo events and MIDI and audio regions.
This chapter covers the following:
• Using the Tempo Display in the Transport Bar (p. 1023)
• Using the Tempo Track (p. 1024)
• Recording Tempo Changes in Logic Pro (p. 1029)
• Adjusting the Tempo to Fit Audio Regions (p. 1029)
• Using the Tempo List (p. 1030)
• Using the Tempo Operations Window (p. 1033)
• Using the Tempo Interpreter Window (p. 1035)
• Using the Tempo Fader (p. 1038)
