Problem:   Tempo accelerates/decelerates regardless of the the BPM I enter at the beginning of various projects.  It happens when I use any templates that I created.  Obviously, I have done something during creation that causes it to happen.  I'm thinking I might have cloned the template (save as) after using ARA to follow an acoustic guitar track tempo that I recorded.  Anyway, can't seem to find a fix.  I've gone into the project menu and tried to change the tempo at the beginning of the songs, but at a certain point during each song, it still changes back to the tempo acceleration/deceleration.  Can somebody set me straight, as I'm pretty sure is an operator error.
 
Thanks!

Have you opened up the Tempo map view and removed everything from the listing ?

I'll try that... thanks Chuck!

Mission accomplished.. thanks Chuck.

For future reference, one way you can get unexpected tmepo changes later in a project is by copy-pasting from one part of a project to another with tempo changes included. To avoid this, use Copy Special (Ctrl+Alt+C) once to bring up the Copy Options dialog, and uncheck Tempos. When you save a project or template, the copy options will be saved in that state and will persist until the next time you use Copy Special to change them.

good tip Fly!
