General Discussion: Time Signatures

Most Recent

written by: mikemilton

Is there an easy way to set up time signatures?

So 4/4 is easy (the default) and 3/4 (actually x/4) can be had by saying:
Metronome Hey
beat input to x set

Similarly, one can set the 'resolution of the arranger to a fraction of the beat (arranger x hey; fraction to x set)

So, one can 'fake' say, 6/8 {and triplets would be fraction to 3 (or6)??}

But is there any direct way to specify 6/8 (or other combos) system wide in a way that would allow mid-song time signature changes?

Also is there a way to swing beats / triplets?

I've been doing this externally but I'd really like to be able to sue the arranger rather than going outside the instrument. I seem to reacll a comment that there were aspirations to 'record' the arranger for expressiveness. Is that still a future?
