Tempo Change: BPM Marker
A new project first has a single "Master" tempo which can be defined in the transport
console or in the project settings (shortcut: "I").
This Master tempo affects either the entire project or the start of the project up to the
first BPM marker.
Exception: If the tempo should be interpolated to the first tempo marker, the master
tempo is only effective directly at the project start, to then go linearly to the tempo
of the next BPM marker.
You can make any tempo changes directly in the project window at any time or for
any musical position (even between beats) using the BPM marker or corresponding
tempo curve point.
The tempo markers are snapped to the next snap point when the grid is active. By
dragging the tempo markers and holding down "Alt", you temporarily deactivate the
grid function.
Note: Samplitude Music Studio 2013 does not automatically adjust audio objects via
tempo markers in case of tempo change. In order to change the length of audio
objects to the defined tempo changes, use the pitchshift/timestretch mode and drag
them to the end of the rear object edge of the audio object until this matches the
original beat marking.
Time Signature Marker
Beat counter markers change the time signature from the marker position onwards,
e. g. 4/4 beat to 3/4.
Therefore you can only insert time signature marker at bar borders and only position
them at full beat borders.
