How can I transitionally change tempo of some portion of midi drums in Mixcraft 7.0?
From the last fourth of bridge to chorus and onwards I want tempo to speed up from 100 to 110. How can I do it in my Mixcraft 7.0? what I know is to jump tempo discretely but now I wonder how I can do it continuously so that tempo will increase uniformly between the range I set.

In Mixcraft 7 this is done using markers. Other DAWs have the capability to graph tempo changes, which makes things very easy, but in Mixcraft you need to place a bunch of markers and just change the tempo at each one, so have 10 markers, at 101, 102, 103... up to 110bmp.

Have a look at the Mixcraft 7 page on Markers at Acoustica.com - this is the options window for each marker:

You probably want a hardware MIDI controller. Something with a dedicated tap-tempo button could be good for ya. They're really common, especially on cheap/entry level equipment. Or you could easily reprogram any generic MIDI button/key/pad to emulate that same behaviour.

Personally though, I'd prefer to map the tempo directly to some kind of linear fader, rotary encoder, etc.. Or better still; a motorized fader.

I don't know what DAW you use though. Some are probably going to be more capable than others, but I can tell you that I've definitely done it before with Avid Protools and Ableton Live. The latter being particularly easy. In fact, if you use Ableton Live, you can even just use the mouse or arrow keys. You could also stretch or warp the actual waveform, but it will sound less natural.

Some DAW's will let you insert on the master track a tempo change event.
