Hello all,
To start, have you all ever played or heard "Third Suite" by Robert Jager? Well, regardless if you have or haven't, I'm looking to do something like he did as attached.
What's the best way to do this while actually having the measures switch back and forth between the two set time signatures?

Finale lets you use a different time signature for display from the "real" time signature, so you can have alternating 4/4 and 3/4 measures, all using the same time signature for display, your side-by-side 4/4 3/4. To get that, use a composite time signature--for display--of 4/4+3/4, then in the document options change "composite time signature plus sign charater" to a blank.
