"In this next part I?m going to be explaining about the time signature. You can change. On the MPC you change your time signature, any time signature you feel like it, just within the time signature block. In certain songs you might have different time signatures per bars, so in order to achieve this you'll go into the sequence block and choose the actual, and look for the time icon and press window. When you press this it's going to bring up each of the bars and the time signature for each bar. On this screen you can actually customize which time signatures you want per bar. So you could have eight different time signatures per bar. And to actually do this process just press do it. So just press window when you get to the time signature bar and change each of the bars to whichever time signature you feel like you need and then press do it."
