Re: [Finale] OT System of time signatures

[David H. Bailey]

You see, it most definitely would need explanation, because I took such 
a numbering system to indicate only the main subdivisions of the beat, 
with all others being duple (i.e. a single beat would include 3 
8th-notes, but only 6 16th-notes) while Dennis is taking the 
triple-subdivision all the way down (i.e. single beat would include 3 
8th-notes, and 9 16th-notes grouped by 3, and I would guess 27 
32nd-notes, grouped also by 3).  Hopefully the beaming would be done 
clearly to reflect any subdivisions!

Definitely not a time signature usage to be handled lightly and with no 
explanation!

It sure would! I understand this to indicate that *all* sub-groups are
subdivided in three -- 3/3 is counted like 9/8 but with 16th triplets, 32nd
triplets, etc.
