Default Re: Change Time Signature

Hi, paulsig:

Measure 15 is changing because in going from 4/4 to 2/4, you end up with an additional 2 beats to deal with, so an additional bar of 2/4 is created to take of that.

Essentially, you're splitting measure 14 into two bars of 2/4 which become bars 14 and 15.

You may have to go to bar 15 and re-set that and the following measures to 4/4 to get your timing back.

Good luck.

David
