How to change a gradual tempo?
I've got a tempo map that is set to gradually change from one marker to the next. I want to change the tempo of some sections. When I do so, Reaper does not alter the tempo beat-by-beat or measure-by-measure, but instead either speeds up or slows down the entire recorded section to match the new average. My midi drums work fine, but my other instruments don't match. To solve this problem, I put in splits (without volume faders) every measure on the other instruments, and they now match up in time the way I want them to. However, during playback, I hear noticeable clicking every time there's a split. I zoom in super close to the splits, indeed there are no volume effects. I undo/redo the splits, and the waveform looks no different. But when I split and then glue items back together, the waveform changes, seemingly FORCING the raw audio to have some weird volume effect at the edges of the split I don't want. How do I make Reaper just glue the damn items together and not try to apply some smoothing algorithm (which is what I assume it's doing)? Is there another way to alter gradual tempo changes that can avoid this issue?
