I think that if the 1/4 has a reasonable tempo, say 1/4 = 120, then
the shortest discernible time values will be around 1/128, and th

The question is where the metric accents are. There are three

Hi Trevor,
Which would conflict with the senses of "binary" and "ternary"
Good point.
How to draw attention to the *denominator*?
How about "n-rational" or "n-plex" meters?
So powers of two would be "2-plex" (or "duplex") meters, powers of
three would be "3-plex" (triplex), etc.

i was a founder member of british new music group 'icebreaker' - we
often perform scores with times signatures like 4/6 or 5/12 (four
triplet quarter notes to the bar or 5 eigth-note triplets). earlier,
boulez in le marteau would write time sigs like 'two and two thirds
over 4'

Hi, Trevor:
What frustrates me is that there's appearantly no *name* for the
class of time signatures
of the form m/n where n is *not* an integer power of 2.
Fascinating observation! =)
If anybody has a good name for these meters, I would love to steal.

Have to admit the error message text is cute.

Just out of curiosity... How good can any reason be?

Hi all,
I'm using some complicated time signatures, like 3599/11748 followed
by 2667/25276 followed by 177/568, etc. (I have a good reason for this).
They render nicely for nearly ten pages or so of music, and then
suddenly adding an additional "strange" time signature causes two
