The _time signature_ determines the musical speed of the passage we are
|
||||
composing and is measured in _beats per bars_.
|
||||
|
||||
If we are composing something rhythmic, it will also determine the lengths of
|
||||
the sound samples we use to some extent. So it is important to be able to set
|
||||
up the time signature before we continue.
|
||||
|
||||
To see the time-signature-related timelines for the session, you can
|
||||
right-click anywhere in the "header" of the rulers and check the following
|
||||
options: _Time Signature_, _Bars & Beats_, and _Tempo_.
|
||||
|
||||
{{< figure src="en/ardour7-ts-timeline.png" alt="Time signature">}}
|
||||
|
||||
There is always at least one marker for both the time signature and the tempo
|
||||
in the session, right in the beginning of the timeline. You can change either
|
||||
of the two further in the session. To do that, you need to pick either time
|
||||
or bar and beat on the timeline, right-click on the dedicated timeline lane,
|
||||
choose _New Time Signature_ or _New Tempo_, and provide a new value in the
|
||||
newly opened dialog.
|
||||
|
||||
{{< figure src="en/ardour7-new-time-signature.png" alt="New Time Signature" >}}
|
||||
|
||||
You can also easily change the latest time signature or tempo even if you
|
||||
scrolled past the point in time where you can see the marker on the timeline.
|
||||
Simply click on either tempo or TS button right below the secondary clock and
|
||||
provide a new value in the newly opened dialog.
|
||||
|
||||
{{< figure src="en/Ardour5_Edit_TS_and_Tempo.png" alt="Tempo and Time Signature" >}}
|
||||
|
||||
For the tempo (button on the left), choose the number of beats per minute (bpm)
|
||||
for your session.
|
||||
|
||||
For the _time signature_ (button with "TS" caption on the right), you can
|
||||
enter new values for the _beats per bar_ as well as the _note value_.
|
||||
|
||||
## Continuing
|
||||
|
||||
Next, we will explore using ranges to set up a loop we can listen to while we
|
||||
arrange the rhythm.
