ok so im kinda new to famitracker. is it possible to have varying row lengths for say a change in time signatures? if i change the row length it changes every frame. is it possible to make each frame have a seperate row length? thanks!

the best way, or at least they way i do it, is set the frame length fairly high, say enough for either 2 or 4 bars in 4/4 depending on how you space your notes, then if you need to change the time signature, you can mess with the Dxx (skip to next frame) command to end frames prematurely, so you can do stuff in 7/, 6/, 5/ etc. it probably makes sense to use a different default frame length value if the dominant time signature in a song is something other than 4/4, and instead use Dxx to create 4/4 frames where needed. depends what you're doing or what you're most comfortable with.

hopefully that isn't too confusing :s
