Midi tempo change

MIDI will take on the tempo of an existing project into which you import it, and will follow any tempo changes made after the fact whether imported into an existing project or opened as a new project.
 
In CbB, you can modify the initial tempo by double-clicking the tempo shown in the Transport module of the Control Bar. Or you can modify or add tempo changes via Project > Insert Tempo Change or by opening Views > Tempo View, and clicking the + button, or clicking the button to open the list pane, and double-clicking a tempo in the list.
 
If the goal is to end up with a MIDI file that has the new tempo, simply Save As, and select a MIDI type in the Type dropdown.

I don't think it's possible. A project can only have one tempo which is applied on every track.
The workaround could be bouncing or exporting the MIDI track to audio in its desired tempo, and then change the project tempo back to "main tempo". 
The tempo of the audio inside a clip can be whatever as long as Audio Snap or similar aren't involved.
 
Of course you can also record the MIDI playing live in whatever tempo you want, free or using an external metronome which you can afjust independet of the project metronome.

This isn't true - you can change tempo as many times as you want within a project (ALT + SHIFT + 5)
 
@chasmcg - I think what you need to do is set the MIDI clip time format to absolute time (H:M:S rather than M:B:T), bounce the MIDI clips to themselves, then lock the MIDI clips.
 
Once you've done that, changing the tempo shouldn't affect your MIDI as it's locked to absolute time rather than the tempo.

What Kalle meant was you cannot have different tempi at any one point in the project running simultaneously
 
Of course you are free to have as many tempo changes as you want - I've seen projects with hundreds of changes.
 
 

Thanks for the replies. This is what I'm wanting to do. This is done in Reaper.

^ I should have remembered that one. I've read about it before here on the forum... Well, age doesn't come empty handed...

Absolute vs. Musical timebase  and Time Format settings of only affect the start times of MIDI clips; the timing and duration of events within the clip will still follow project tempo, even if the start time is locked to Absolute/SMPTE time.
 
The easiest way to change the tempo of a MIDI clip is simply to change it's length, either by using Process > Length or slip-stretching by holding Ctrl+Shift as you drag the end of the clip to the appropriate length (i.e. the same percentage as the tempo change/difference ratio).

Yes, my bad - you're correct.
 
It's a pity locking the position & data doesn't actually lock it at all :(
