This is indeed the default setting as expressed in
'scm/time-signature-settings.scm'. What did you expect as default?
(4 4)? I suppose the dev that implemented it has considered (3 3 2)
to be more common. And I would tend to agree (although 8/8 is not very
common, so it is not that easy to choose a default).
You can change it simply with
\overrideTimeSignatureSettings
#'(8 . 8) % timeSignatureFraction
#'(1 . 8) % baseMomentFraction
#'(4 4) % beatStructure
#'() % beamExceptions
or
\set Timing.beatStructure = #'(4 4)
Cheers,
Xavier
