In Radium, I guess you rather would want to have different number of beats in each parallel block, and afterwards stretch them so that the duration matches, instead of having parallel blocks with lots of beats and then stretch them so that the duration does not match, as I showed in the video. Both ways are possible. _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
