What’s the idea?
This would require implementation across multiple areas:
Primary interface: A dedicated Time Signature Editor accessible from the main menu
Visual integration: Time signature divisions displayed on both the piano roll and grid pads
Per-track settings: Individual time signature controls accessible within each track's settings
Global settings: Master time signature controls with options for global vs. local modes
Sequencing pages: The time signature system would need to be integrated into SEQ, Piano Roll, and SONG modes to maintain consistency across the workflow
Describe the feature or improvement you’re suggesting. What problem does it solve, or what would it enable?
Where would it go?
Advanced Implementation Features:
Time Signature Editor with intuitive interface for creating and visualizing compound signatures with unlimited additive combinations
Clear visual representation showing time signature divisions on grid pads
Per-track time signature capability allowing simultaneous different meters
Global vs. Local modes for master time signature with per-track variations
Is this something you imagine on a specific page (e.g. KEYS, MIX, SONG), or as a new mode, setting, or workflow?
Any details or mockups?
Musical Applications: Enable polyrhythmic compositions where tracks in different time signatures create sophisticated rhythmic relationships (4×3/4 = 3×4/4 alignment patterns) common in advanced musical genres.
Future Development Potential: This time signature foundation would serve as architectural groundwork for advanced groove templates, polyrhythmic probability settings, metric modulation tools, and complex automation patterns that follow musical rather than chronological time.
User Benefits:
Optional: Add mockups, reference links, or extra notes to help us understand your vision.
Expanded creative possibilities for complex rhythmic compositions
Intuitive workflow for musicians familiar with non-standard time signatures
Enhanced appeal to producers in genres requiring complex meter
Market differentiation for RELIQ as a hardware sequencer with advanced rhythmic capabilities
