polymetric notation

• Jan 30, 2011 - 07:39

Hi

Can I do a polymetric notation in musescore? Like in the first instrument-line 2/4 and in the second instrument-line 5/8? I would lke to do some minimal-music. (polymetric, not polyrhythmic)

greetings
Patrick

To solve this issue :
1 - Create a cycle, for example 4*5=20 quarters.
2 - Create 20/4 twice, one with 4/4 appearance the other 5/4.
3 - Click on a note, and add a bar measure (automatically added just before the selected note).
4 - CTRL(win) select and drag meters in each stave.

By the way, you may create also a 4/3 meter used in contemporary music, it is yet another way to change tempo which should be indicated with a hidden (press v) text tempo indication for playback.
