Is there any way to have a progressive slow down ot the tempo, let's say just before you get to the very last chord (that will hold). So in the preceding bar, can I slow down the tempo progressively?

Somewhat. The tempo shifts can occur at each measure, although not within it. At any medium or fast tempo, this still sounds good. At slower tempos you will hear a more abrupt change.
Press F5 to see the Bar Settings options. You may set a specific tempo in each bar, or give a percentage change so you don't have to guess or worry about the math.
Apologies if you already knew this and were looking for a tempo change within one bar. You can post in the Wishlist for that.

F5 allows you to change the tempo at any bar Alt F5 allows you to adjust the chords to "hold". Have you tried these? Darn, Matt, you are fast!  Oh, and Serge, welcome to the forum.

Thank you guys for your answer.
I was hoping for a progressive slow down within 1 bar. I'm so used to doing that with Cubase, it's like a must for me in most ballads.
So I guess the Wish list it is!

Is there any way to have a progressive slow down ot the tempo, let's say just before you get to the very last chord (that will hold). So in the preceding bar, can I slow down the tempo progressively? As pointed out above, using F5 Bar Settings will allow you to reset to a new and slower Tempo at the highlighted bar, but the slower tempo will indeed take place for the entire bar. And it is important to remember to go to the next bar and set the Tempo back to the original one. If you need to have a ritard cover a bar and each successive note be played a little bit later in time, you could spread it out into up to 4 1-beat bars, enter the chord for each beat and then use F5 tempo changes on each of those 1-beat bars, slowing it down by the same percentage for each bar. Then, of course, don't forget to F5 the following bar and set the Tempo back to original, as well. --Mac

I export my BiaB file and then make those kind of changes in my DAW. As noted by others, BiaB does tempo changes on a measure by measure basis.
There are a lot of other edit functions that can be made in a DAW that are not available in BiaB itself. So for me the two programs complement each other.

By the way, it's spelled rallentando.

Careful, Matt, there are some languages in which it indeed is the Rallentendo...

I'm not certain, but I think it would be either Spanish or the Portuguese.
If you Bing it spelled that way, you can bring up entries in another language, just tried.

Never became involved in the spelling............I have only ever referred to it as a "RALL".....saves a lot of bother!

Played a session date last year where we rendered a young fellow's score, notated above a couple of bars it said, "Slow Down"...

I used to know a guy who called a ritardando a retardo.
Hmm, kind of speaks for itself, doesn't it?
I tactfully corrected him the first time, "Oh, you mean ritardando" and he said "Yea, retardo".
I know what he meant, and never corrected him again. What's the use?
