Recording Songs
 
Before you record a new song, you must specify the time signature. 
However, a time signature of 4/4 is automatically specified when 
you perform the Song Initialize operation or when the power is 
turned on, so you will need to make this setting only if you want to 
record a new song in a different time signature.

Specifying the Time Signature of a 
Pattern
 
Each pattern has a Pattern Beat setting that manages the time 
signature of that pattern. The pattern beat acts as a guide when the 
pattern is played or recorded, and is handled independently of the 
time signature of the song (i.e., the time signature recorded in the 
beat track).
The pattern beat is normally set to a time signature of 4/4, but you 
can change this setting when the song has a time signature other 
than 4/4, or when you want to record a pattern with a time signature 
different than that of the song.
Only one pattern beat setting can be specified at the beginning of 
each pattern. This means that it is not possible to change time 
signatures midway through a pattern.
