I use Garageband on iOS for composition, before importing songs into Logic. I've been frustrated for a while that the only time signatures that are available are 4/4, 3/4, and 6/8. Am I missing something, or is there a hack or a way around this? Surely 5/5 or 7/4 wouldn't be too much to ask?

Alternatively, is there an iOS app which I can use as a basic sequencer which does allow moire varied time signatures?

F.e. NanoStudio 2. No 5/5 but al least something like 7/4, 5/16, 11/8 and so whatever you like from 1-32 devide trough 1,2,4,8,16 or 32. You also can use different time signatures in a song (as well as tempo). Something not all iOS DAWs offer.
But no audio tracks (yet).

Beatmaker 3 does everthing between 2 and 19 :4

Only DAW / Sequenzer I know of that does every xx:xx measure is Korg Gadget, per Pattern!

There is a free LE version to try.

Many thanks for your replies! I shall investigate.

It's a weird oversight by Garageband. Would be easy to fix if they wanted to.
