Two time signatures that are simple and widely used. Even if basic, some amazing stuff was written with 4/4 and 6/4. Which one do you prefer?

I like both of them, provided that they're used properly.  12/8 is much cooler, though.

it's funny cause sometimes 6/4 can sound like it's in 4/4 but with 2 extra beats, and to someone who doesnt know much about time sigs, they'd probably think it's a weird time sig. whereas 6/8 sounds regular

i went with 4/4 though.

6/4 and 6/8 can make some very powerful stuff, but 7/8 is my favorite.
