Live just doesn't do it.

Common gripe mentioned numerous times.

As a lot of people just use Live for Djing where almost everything is 4 on the floor, it doesn't seem to be a major priority on the update list for Ableton. You can have different timing sigs, just one at a time. There are kind of workarounds but frankly they suck, so anything weird I need with multiple meters (timing) I do in Cubase, just because it's so damned easy. I think it's something Ableton should work on if they are serious about Live being considered a premier DAW such as Logic, Sonar, Samplitude, Cubase, DP etc.

Not knocking Live, I love it and it does many things the so called premier DAWS cannot do but interchangeable/automatable time sigs is a pretty fundamental thing for serious studio or A/V work.
