Hi!

Is there any way to tell MDrummer "this is the 'one', start counting from here" when using the automatic breaks feature? I find MDrummer seems to have a mind of its own - like, if I stop playback during the third measure, then restart from the beginning, MDrummer counts the next measure (the first measure of the actual project) as "four", like it remembers leaving off on "three".

So this means that the breaks are completely out of sync with the chord changes - which, granted, can be "fun" sometimes, but other times I'd like to dial-back the avant-gardeness of it all and just say "look, dummy, this is 'one', please forget whatever measure number we left off on during the previous playback and just start counting from here". And other times I'd also like to say "okay, I know you're on 'three' and excitedly gearing up for that break, but because I just had you do a two-measure Long Break I'd like you to just go back to 'one' for now and skip this break so we can re-establish the groove".

Obviously, I can just disable automatic breaks and go back to manually inserting them, but automatic breaks are nice for spending less time micromanaging the drummer while fleshing out melodies and whatnot.

Hi, I'm afraid not. If you want anything a little more complex than just "play break after every 3 bars", use the Song tab or the MIDI command method:
