Change tempo & key

Steps

1. 1

   Open a Backing Track, a Studio session, or a Rehearse setlist.

2. 2

   In the tempo box, press Detect and the app analyses the audio and fills in the BPM. On a blank session you can simply type the tempo you want instead.

3. 3

   Use minus and plus to move the tempo one BPM at a time. The pitch stays where it is.

4. 4

   Type a number straight into the tempo box and press Enter to jump to that tempo.

5. 5

   Use the transpose arrows to move the audio up or down by semitones. The real key is shown — D, D♭, C — not a number.

6. 6

   Tap the key or the tempo value itself to put it straight back to the original.

Tips

• In Rehearse, the tempo you detect is the tempo everything uses — the display, the playback speed and the click.
• The click track follows the tempo, including detection and every later change, so the two never drift apart. It also lines its first beat up with the start of the music; see the click track guide.
• A Studio uses the key you set in the session details as its starting key.
• Tempo and key changes are for playback only — the files in your drive are never altered.
• Included in your membership.

Troubleshooting

• Detect returns half or double the tempo — press the ½× or 2× button next to the tempo to fix it in one tap, or type the right tempo.
