I'm trying to write a drum part in hydrogen, but
it needs to be in 3/4
time. I see no way to do that in version 0.9.1. The forums at
www.hydrogen-music.org recommend changin the "pattern length" to
achieve deifferent time signatures, but doing so doesn't have any
affect.
After selecting the patern you are working on, click on the right hand
drop down in the patern editor pane. Select 6. This should put you
in 3/4 time. You will see the 4th beat greyed out and if you play the
pattern it won't play that beat...you'll see.
Even if that did work, I would have to triple my tempo, right?
No. Your BPM is your BPM whether there are 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, or
whatever beats per measure.
The
tempo control, besides disallowing manual entry and
requiring you to
use the spin button (yuck), only goes up to 300. Since the song is in
112, I would need it to go up to 336, right? Or do I misunderstand
what patttern length means?
There is some sort of misunderstanding going on.
