Hi, I tried to import 9/8 time signature midifiles and did'nt fin a way to have the midi data correctly displayed on rapid composer.
Please help!

After importing right click on the master track, and select 9 for the 'beats per bar' setting. Then you need to double the tempo. I am sorry, I promise v4 will have proper signature handling.

Thanks,
Attila

Thank vou Attila,
Well that's what i did, however with the vst version it doesn't work...to have rc properly synchronized with the daw I have to keep checked synchronize with tempo and time signature, when I do that The data is not correcly displayed even if the daw is on 9/8 time signature Rc automaticaly reset the time signature to 4/4 and is fixed no way to change it, and if I dont synchronize with time signature at every loop start some notes are missed, very ennoiyng!
Cheers!

Yes, David, you are right! I tested using 9/8 in Reaper and there were a few issues in RapidComposer, which I have fixed.
Early next week v3.65 will be uploaded with the fixes.
You can use any signature in the host (the denominator should be 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, or 32). The only workaround you have to do is adjusting the tempo (e.g. double the tempo in RapidComposer if you use X/8 signature) but otherwise everything is displayed properly. This will be fully reworked soon.

Thanks,
Attila
