Tiny Tempo Adjustments

[silenmedia]

Hello, I am a huge, but relatively recent Reaper fan, coming from Logic.

I do some film scoring work, and in that I need to do VERY careful tempo adjustments.

In Logic, you can open a list of the tempo markers, and manually slide the tempos up or down.

In Reaper, you can do this on an individual tempo marker (double clicking it), but you can't make really tiny adjustments and then see how they change the timing, without lots of clicking and enter and clicking and enter.

The closet thing that I've been able to find is using the envelope on the Master Track and carefully dragging it up and down. But even that doesn't do what I need, because the tempo jumps very fast.

So, is there anything I'm missing? Right now, what I need is a way to drag the tempo envelope up and down by VERY TINY amounts, like 0.001 at a time.

Select a tempo envelope point and run one of these:

SWS/BR: Increase tempo marker 0.001 BPM (preserve overall tempo)
SWS/BR: Decrease tempo marker 0.001 BPM (preserve overall tempo)

This is pretty much what I was looking for.

I wish I had a way that I could bind these commands to a mouse modifier, or a quick way of going back and forth between the different commands. "Increase by 0.001" or Increase by 0.01" ect.

But for now, this is great! Thanks

I just made a contextual toolbar for all of the actions I need, so I'm all good.

Really appreciate the help!
