It took me about an hour consulting the docs and experimenting to understand how to create tempo ramps:
- Make two tempo markers on the marker timeline (either with right clicking on the Tempo ruler or by clicking with the Grid tool)
- Set the second one to the target tempo in “constant” mode
- Set the first one to “ramping” mode and give it the start and end tempos
In the process of this I discovered that if I do this backwards it doesn’t work, because editing the second tempo marker resets the previous tempo marker to “constant” mode.
Why is this?
I’ve put up a video capture (which Discourse won’t allow me to upload here unfortunately) at Ardour tempo ramp glitch · GitHub
I’m on Ardour 9.8.
