Hi Everyone,
I'm doing a edit on an old project where I have a **** at the end of the song on my tempo map.  For some reason(??) when I added a new midi part, the part did not follow the tempo ****.  When I first started this project a while ago I used other midi parts and they followed the tempo map correctly. I tried closing the project and closing the program, but it didn't help.  Should I just shut the computer and see if that helps?  I'm just wondering if the project is somehow corrupted.  Any suggestions?  Thanks

Sorry, what's a **** at the end?

I have no idea what **** is either. but I believe its a word I use to describe my mother in law
 
My first suggestion would be to right click on the clip/Bounce to clips.
you might even want to do this to the whole midi track.
perhaps you turned this clip in to a grove clip by accident, thus preventing it from following the tempo map.
Sound about right ?

I tried the clip/bounce to clips, but it didn't work.  Also, it's not a groove clip by mistake so it's not that.  I think the file is somehow corrupted. I've been using midi for years so Im not sure what the problem is.
From some reason my original post was changed to ******. The word was originally "****" which of course means slowing down or rallentando.  I think they deleted it because maybe they thought it was referring to a person. LOL Anyway, what I was trying to say was at the end of the song when I wanted it to slow down (****) the midi part did not follow the tempo map.  Thanks for your suggestions.

Try using ritard

I find it highly unusual that a Midi track does not follow the tempo map. If it was audio I could understand it, but Midi?
 
Describe what you see when viewing the prv and you hit the ritard bit. Either the whole song slows down or it doesn't. If it does then surely the Now marker must go out of sync with the prv yes?

Have you double-checked that the ritard is still shown in the Tempo View? I'm thinking possibly you deleted tempo changes along with the old MIDI parts. Does the metronome click follow the ritard? is there a one-to-one relationship between note starts and tempo changes? What synth, and what version of SONAR?
