Today I set my metronome in Live 11 to 7/8. For some reason, every few bars the metronome adds a bar of 2/8. In other words, the metronome goes

bip bop bop bop bop bop bop
bip bop bop bop bop bop bop
…

for several bars, and then, for some reason, it goes

bip bop bop bop bop bop bop
bip bop
bip bop bop bop bop bop bop

Why does it doe this and how can I stop it?

Do you have loop mode active in Arrangement, while you're using Session?

Yes, that was the problem.

Thanks for your help!
