Inserted it, and it worked. Now I can know exactly when and where to change tempos in the drum track itself and can follow the drum track for the other parts.

Embarasingly easy....gulp


Yes, that's why I suggested making the measures 2/4 instead of 4/4. It would allow a tempo change every two beats instead of 4 (more gradual ritard). Probably could set it to one beat measures, though may have quirks with tempo changes that quickly.
