Adjust Tempo
Even in Play, the software offers some limited control over tempo in real-time . By pressing Up Arrow (for faster)
or Down Arrow (for slower), you can adjust the speed while the score plays . Each press can alter the tempo
by 4 or 5 beats-per-minute: so this method is not as precise as NTempo control when you perform .
