Time signature - Does it apply to whole sequence?

Whats up MPC peps?

I have a doubt. When you select a time signature for a sequence; does it apply that time signature to the whole sequence or just the selected track?

For example:

Sequence 1

track 1) kick @ 1/16
track 2) snare @ time signature off
track 3) hi hat @ 1/32
etc...

Will each track be able to keep its individual time signature or would the last time signature applied be the overall sequence time signature.

MPC Peps & Tutor share some knowledge.

it is whatever time sig you have selected when you are recording

so if you have it for 1/8 while recording then that will be 1/8

you can go over the same track again and use a different time sig if you want as well.[/color]
