Q. Can I change tempo mid-song?

For GB1 For GB2 For GB3

A. No, early versions of GarageBand only support a single tempo per song.

The only workaround would be to create a separate song in each tempo, and use both exported AIFFs. IOW, and this is not pretty, you create song1 at 140BPM. Then you create song2 at 120BPM. You export both and import them (via drag and drop) into a third project and piece them together.

Even better, and FAR less pretty, you could export each track of each song, and then import all the tracks into a third song. (brrrrrr, not fun)

iLife '08

The best option would be to get the latest version of GarageBand , GarageBand '08 (or later), which does offer Tempo Changes during a song, as many as desired.
