This list is not comprehensive as you can enter tempos freely. It is intended to illustrate how you can structure your entry to input different types of tempo marks and metronome marks.
The tempo popover is case-sensitive. If you want your tempo mark to start with a capital letter, you must enter a capital letter into the popover.
