Hi, Dylan:
My score has four staves, one of which is a drum staff. The
piece has a short introduction with all four voices in 4/4.
After the introduction, the top three voices play a four-
measure section in 3/4, and the drums superimpose 9/8, 8/8, 7/8.
Below is a small sample which should give you the basic idea.
Good luck!
Kieren.
