    Default Update for duple compound meter

    As an update on this request:

    I'm working up a chord chart for "76 Trombones," which has been requested for my next gig. The chart will be in 6/8 time, which for iReal Pro, means that it is "in two," with a duple compound meter. A proposed "in two" style should treat charts having a 6/8 signature by placing bass notes on beats 1 and 4 and rhythm and chord hits on beats 3 and 6. Such a style would be suitable for many march tunes (e.g. "Washington Post March") as well as other 6/8 tunes, like "It's Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas." Meanwhile, I'll have to settle for a work-around.
