Most definitely. But I would also concede that triggering loops in time can then become a real concern.

1/4 *is* a solution, but definitely workaround-ish.

There are two "interludes" in this track I wrote that switch to 3/4:

The main signature remains 4/4, but all the clips playing at those times are in 3/4. It works!

this is one of the most discussed limitations of live - i'm amazed they haven't implemented it yet.

here's a recent thread about it:

Been sugesing this since 1.5. Maybe it's trickier than we think to implement. Sure would be nice to be able to automate time signature changes.
