to *understand* the meter, you'd need more
intelligence than any computer can offer anyway. there's no
difference between 4/4 and 4.0/4.0 but there is a whole lot of
difference between a wes montgomery 4/4 and a deep purple 4/4.
I'm not talking about AI - just that if you want 4/4 shortened just
slightly, you should still be able to have simple beat sync plugins
understand that you still want 4 beats, not 15 or 31 or whatever. > >The "breaking" of the periodicity

63 ubeats per bar, a beat is 16 ubeats
But what does that buy us?
