Simplest way to take a normal chart and increase its speed?

I’m a fan of Nightcore (please don’t tell anyone), and I’d like to take some of my existing charts and make them like 124% speed Nightcore versions. Is there a relatively simple way to do this? I can only think of a particularly time-consuming method where I alter the speed and pitch, paste the new audio into reaper, then make an entirely new tempo map. There’s got to be an easier way since the tempo would be altered uniformly across the board. Any ideas?
Thanks!

Only having to redo the tempo map IS the faster way actually.

Do you HAVE to change pitch or does it just need speeding up? Not that it changes the amount of time needed though.

My personal preference is to have the pitch shifted up as well, which is a natural byproduct of increasing the speed in Reaper without checking the “Keep Pitch the Same” box.
Although if you were planning to do this a lot, coding this event would be faster in the end.
I would do it for every custom if I had an efficient method, but I’m not great at coding, so I’ll probably just stick to the manual method.
Not sure if this will help entirely, but I set up a shortcut for converting midi’s to half/double time depending on the tempo of the existing midi and what i’ve mapped. Assuming you were using an existing chart (and thus, has a tempo map), and the nightcore version of that song is double time (or something like that, I’m not entirely sure how much those songs differ from their original versions), then this method might help.
In Reaper, you can set up a custom action to speed this up. Name it whatever you’d like, and for Double Time, add “Item properties: Increase item rate by ~6% (One Semitone” 12 times. For whatever percentage you’d want, you’d want to add/remove that action to get to your desired percentage.

I played around with this a bit, and it changes all the MIDI tracks without actually changing the tempo map. If it just changed the tempo map too, it would be perfect.
