As far as I can find it’s still not possible to set tempo through Generic Remote. It was there in Cubase 6 according to this post: Control project tempo with ext. midi controller - #5 by Martin.Jirsak - Cubase - Steinberg Forums
Questions:
Has anyone found a solution/workaround for this? Tap tempo would be quite alright for me.
Should I report this as a bug?
So no-one has an idea?
But here is a solution I’ve just set up:
- Set up a tempo track with tempo gradually rising over a number of bars.
- Move song pointer to the place in the song that has the tempo you want. This can be done by clicking in the track, allocating ffw/rew buttons, an encoder for shuffle etc.
Now all the tempo synced delays, pads and effects can always be in tempo. Nice.
How’s that for creativity!
