I have a ritard followed by an 'A Tempo' at the end of the 1st verse. The refrain is played at the correct speed. The first measure of the 2nd verse is slow but the second measure is back to the correct speed.

If I change the A Tempo to set a particular BPM then everything works fine but of course that is not ideal.

Put in the correct tempo as a BPM, and hide it.

Like I said, if I put the BPM in the A Tempo, it works fine.

That seems like a workaround for a bug...

Personally, I'll put up with the one measure slow. I hate 'surprise' changes in tempo that are 'self inflicted'.

Thanks for the info,
Brian
