Is there a way in which I can copy/paste a group of measures/midi in the same song? The “A section” of a tune I’m working on is comprised of several different meters…instead of inputting each of these numerous times throughout the piece…can I copy the TS info along with the midi?
Don’t know what you mean. Are you working stand-alone or in a DAW?
We write a tempo track in Reaper for our songs, all of which are long and have time-sig changes and (usually) tempo variations. I don’t — because I’m playing in — copy and paste sections, but I could, just by grabbing those notes and plonking them in within the grid editor further down the track, and that could include TS and speed variations. As long as the info is in the tempo track to start with you wouldn’t have a problem. (Obviously I’m talking here about SD3 being used as a VST.)
What sometimes happens is that we don’t write a tempo track because the song is at the same tempo throughout. In that case, we just set the tempo in Reaper, and if there are time-sig changes, because Reaper doesn’t know about them then Superior can’t ‘follow host’ except by assuming the track is always in 4/4, so you get some bits where the click isn’t in the right place both in Reaper and SD3. However this doesn’t really matter, and you could still copy and paste wherever you wanted.
Not sure if that helps, but that’s what I’d do.

Thanks for your response! I did figure out how to copy the meters in SD3…the “paste on board” in the time signature “options”. I recorded the original section to a “fudged” meter, where I just modified it to have the same overall length as the section. Then, after calculating out the meters, I tried to impose these in reaper…over the same section. The one thing I seem to be missing is how to “link” the two where meter is concerned. For instance, if I create tempo changes in Reaper and select “follow host” in SD3…the tempo changes are recognized by SD3. However, when I create “meter” changes in reaper they don’t appear to be recognized by SD3. Subsequently, I have to go in and make the changes there as well.
