My bad :)
anyway, it should work as a remote control for the tempo, while

assigning a CC to Qtractor's tempo won't be that good, regarding to one

data byte = 128 values only. OTOH if more people would like to have such

a feature, it wouldn't be impossible to increment or decrement the

song's predefined BPM up to 64 values, ignoring the decimal digit for

the BPM.
Cheers,
Ralf
