Multiple Time Signatures

Is there anyone out there that works with multiple and complex time
signatures that knows how to copy time signature or tempo change
collections instead of having to set them up by hand.
I've been working a piece in 11/8 10/8 loop and it gets a bit boring
after a certain number of bars having to do it all by hand.
I hope there is a way to do it as I have several hundreds of bars to
type in !

You can try making a midi clip, or use existing ones, the length of the part you want to duplicate (I think the clip has to contain notes... at least one at the beginning and one at the end). Select the clip(s) and export as a midi file (rendering selected clip(s) only), then import it back where you want the part repeated... this should theoretically copy the time signature/tempo changes... this has worked for me at times in the past, and other times it has failed. This is Tracktion's most frustrating flaw, IMO.

It seems like the solution would be to implement a tempo track, where you can create clips and specify the tempo/time sig. This way you could select them in groups, copy/paste them along with audio and midi clips, etc....I think eXT might have something like this...MADatGOD wrote:You can try making a midi clip, or use existing ones, the length of the part you want to duplicate (I think the clip has to contain notes... at least one at the beginning and one at the end).

Yes, that would be fantastic... similar suggestions have been made before.jplanet wrote:

If all else fails just play it all (old fashoned maybe, but it works).
Always remember that others may hate you but those who hate you don't win unless you hate them. And then you destroy yourself.

I had to resort to that recently for an insane prog rock tune, there were just too many subtle changes. But it made editing and rearranging very tricky! But that's the tradeoff for more organic-sounding time changes...Distorted_Mastermind wrote:If all else fails just play it all (old fashoned maybe, but it works).
