Hey there Dave020174,


Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities. We're happy to provide some assistance.


You have the option to change the tempo controls by following the actions here:


Change song settings in GarageBand for iPad


Each song has a tempo (speed) that lasts for the entire song. You can change the tempo when either a Touch Instrument or Tracks view is open. 
1. Open the song settings, then tap Tempo to show the tempo controls.
2. Do one of the following:
* Set the tempo: Tap the tempo bar repeatedly.
* Change the tempo incrementally: Tap the up or down arrow next to the tempo number. You can swipe vertically to change it in larger steps.
5. Song settings, including tempo controls
When you change the tempo of a song, recordings from Touch Instruments (except the Audio Recorder and Amp) change to match the new tempo. Apple Loops also change to match the new tempo.


If you have a feature or setting you would like to see in future updates, you can leave Apple feedback here:

Have a great day!
