different timing

on live4, is there a way that i can have 2 different timings on a song? like the song is in 7/8 but the break and ending is 4/4, how can i do this without having 2 different files for 1 song?

i checked on the manual but didnt found anything.

im thinking this isnt posible at all. i would really hate to go back to acid to do this track (well, tracks)

look at your clip settings. at the left hand theres a bit that says signature, not sure if thats what you're after, but i thought it could be. you might have to change it for each clip, and then have a different signature for the other section, but you could conceivably do it.

From the manual...

Using the Clip Signature fieelds, you can specify the signature of an audio clip’s sample. This setting is relevant only for display; it does not affect sample playback.

30 seconds of audio is 30 seconds of audio regardless of time signature.

10 seconds of audio fits into 30 seconds 3 times.....
Maybe it's 6/8 over 4/4....

thats not what i want. im using 4 tracks of midi and 2 of audio. the thing i need is to change the song signature from 7/8 to 4/4. not just a piece of audio, but all tracks and so on.

i can do 4/4 without changing the signature on the song, but i have some other songs that are more fucked up, more weird time signature changes and such, so once i get over this one, i will have lots of hard time working on the others.
