First and foremost let me say thank-you to everyone who has posted on this board and instilled a community of great minds helping eachother, I appreciate it and I am sure so many others do aswell, whether or not your bound for big studios with large payouts your all unsung hero's in the newbies heart.

Very well now, this is my first post and I have researched the gross amount of information I need except how to change tempo mid recording.

I am using Cool Edit Pro 2.1 with two Rode NT1000's on my yamaha upright piano, and one Rode NTK with a pop filter infront of my face for vocals into the echo layla laptop, I have the metronome in Cool Edit Pro going to my headphones to keep time.

I am recording on 3 tracks in 4/4 time at 120 beats per minute, the bridge of my songs changes signature and is now 6/4 time for approximately 16 bars (of 6/4). I understand with Cool Edit Pro unlike Cakewalk the cues are not for recording however making a master of a cd - I enjoy using cool edit pro like there is no tomorrow however Cakewalk allowed me the ability to add a cue for tempo change at said beats, bars or seconds into a song.

Can anyone give me some insight on how to achieve tempo change with cool edit pro 2.1?

I'm glad you've found the forum useful.

I'm thinking aloud here..... You should be able to record the metronome to a track, by setting the windows mixer to record 'wave' as the source. So you could record up to the point where the tempo changes, then make a new recording of the metronome set to the new parameters, and then a third recording back at the original tempo. Edit these together into a single click track, and there you are. You could probably accommodate a bit of a rit. if required through the 'stretch' function too. Does that point you in a possible direction?

Honestly, I have never even fathemed that idea, however, that would work perectly. Thank you very much.
