Recording Multiple Time Signatures - Rodgers PR-300 Owner's Manual

Recording Multiple Time Signatures
Earlier in this manual, we showed you how to
select a time signature at the beginning of a song. It is
also possible to have multiple time signatures within a
song.
To have multiple time signatures within a song,
it's necessary to fIrst record all of the different time
signatures on a blank track. Once this has been
accomplished, you can record song information on the
blank track without losing the time signature changes.
In this example, we'll show you how to assign a
time signature of 3/4 to measures 1 through 8 and 6/8
to measures 9 through 16.
