How To Change The Tempo in Grooves?

[pacificm]

I’ve created a simple percussion song in the song creator.  Then I go to the Track selector on the left side of the window and select Edit Tempo.  A line appears in the song showing the current tempo.

I want to increase the tempo, so I click on the line and raise the tempo line.  The line rises.  However, when I play the song back it still plays at the original tempo.  The tempo has not increased.

How does one increase the tempo of a song in the Grooves window?

Thanks!

Hi,

it sounds as if you have the plugin loaded in a host and ‘Follow Host’ enabled. If so, you need to disable ‘Follow Host’ to hear the Tempo (and Time Sig) changes on your SD3 Track. To get your host and SD3 internally to play the same changes, you can either edit the changes in your host and then export a dummy MP3 file from your host to import the Tempo changes to your SD3 Song Track or vice versa.
Or is this in the standalone application?

BR,
John

I have the plugin loaded in my DAW.  I disabled “Follow Host” and that helped.  Unless I missed something, I don’t believe this info was included in the Tunetrack product manual.

Thanks for your help!

Follow Host: This is only available when Superior Drummer 3 is used as a plug-in in a host application (DAW). When activated, the Superior Drummer 3 transport will follow the hosts transport/tempo.
