I agree that for most users it would be simpler (apparently) to not have to deal with Time Signatures
I even suggest myself to Squarp to keep only the most common TS and for all the others let choose directly the number of steps (knowing that all the Time Signatures are reproducible this way)
but
that being said
I think you can already have quite easily what you want
(btw Squarp answered me somewhere in this forum that they already tried to implement this option, but they can’t, “considering the Pyramid architecture…”)
that’s the problem!
a step can have different durations
the Pyramid go much further than other sequencers (mostly step sequencers)
the Time Signature system is actually more precise because you choose the number of steps AND the resolution
I remember of my Electribe 2 which allows to directly choose the number of steps, OK, but there was also an option, burried in the settings, to choose the resolution
Time Signatures can do both at the same time, without menu diving.
most of you seem to consider that the default resolution of a step should be 16th notes,
fine.
what I was trying to say above is that you just have to choose zoom x1 and TS /16 (you can save these settings in order to avoid to do it each time)
then you can directly specify the number of steps…
16…15…12…
