    I think it's in 6/8 time signature with 2 first beats for pick up. I tidied it up a bit for you. Ask dance-maker brothers to convert it for you.

    I meant the members who produce dance music, because this time signature is used a lot in those genres.

    You can't convert a 6/8 time signature to 4/4, because the notes won't snap to the quarter-note grid in the new 4/4 time signature. 6/8 is a rational number and 4/4=1 is a natural number. You cannot convert a rational number into a natural number with integer multiples.
    you can drag those notes I tied up for you bar by bar in your piano-roll and place them on a 4/4 time signature, but in the end you'll see that the notes don't snap to the quarter-note grid unless you use the symbol below in your notation software and group notes with it.
