Hiya,

I watched a great video of Busy P where he had a track laid out in clip view within Ableton.

He was launching multiple clips and channels using the section on the right hand side of clip view which is usually numbered from 1 onwards.

pretty standard really.

But what he had going on was that he had duplicated some sections. For example he had 2 sections for verse. And on the 2nd version he put this into 3/4 time.

So you have:

Verse 1 4/4
Verse 1 3/4

Which gave him a nice fill on the fly. He appeared to do this by writing in 3/4 on the right hand side. That was it.

I have tried this and the clips sound exactly the same! And unfortunately I have been unable to find the video again!

you just have to rename the number of the scene by the tempo you want .. Rename line x to xbpm ( you have to write bpm ) and when you launch the scene , the bpm change ..

edit : its not time signature sorry .. but you can do it I think ...
