In the Graphic Tempo Editor, how can you modify the position of a tempo event?

• A. Drag horizontally with the grabber tool.
• B. Use the pencil tool.
• C. Use the Trim tool.
• D. Use the Tempo button.

Answer: (A)

In the Graphic Tempo Editor, tempo changes sit on a timeline, and moving when they take effect means relocating the event along that timeline. You do this by dragging horizontally with the grabber tool—the grabber is specifically for moving events in time, so dragging left or right shifts the tempo change to a new position without altering the tempo value itself. The other tools aren’t intended for repositioning tempo events: the pencil tool is for creating new events, the trim tool handles audio clip ends, and the Tempo button opens tempo-related controls rather than moving existing events.
