With the introduction of markers on December 30, 2020, there is a marker option that can be used to increase or decrease the beats per measure during the song. See the [[markers]] page for more information. After clicking the <code>+</code> button, click "BPM" and enter a new BPM. There is also a blend option so those wanting to slowly change the BPM.
Originally, developer tools were required in order to increase the tempo/BPM limits, but as of July 4, 2021, when Liam changed the sequencing system to only allow sequences with BPMs mentioned above, it no longer exists.
