in any time signature, the tp number is how many count to the measure, and the bottom number is what kind of beat gets 1 count. so 5/8 means 5 counts, each one being an eighth note, and 5/4 is 5 counts, each being a quarter note
@bcsonline14 жыл бұрын
When playing odd time signatures, I would also recommend learning the "clave" pattern of the individual song (clave is used loosely here.) An example would be the vamp on the song Take Five. Keep the vamp running in your head and base you’re playing around it. Your playing will stay in time and be musical. In my opinion, it is more interesting than trying to count beats.

A really easy way to count odd time signatures is to just sub-divide the the measure. like 5/4 can be counted like 1+2+3+1+2+, turning it into a 3/4 measure followed by a 2/4 measure. 6/8 can go to two 3/4 measures and so on. Idk if this is really easier, but is is for me.

lol. The camera changes are really funny...This kind of thing can be very helpful even for a guitarist or other musician. As a guitarist, learning different time signatures really helps me be more creative when I play. For example, Jack White uses a lot of strange time signatures. Having a really good sense of time also enables a player to sort of "bend" the time, playing behind or ahead of the actual beat which creates different types of tension.

I like to do 11/16 in 3-3-3-2 format (Sounds like a 7/8 in swing time) My favorite breakdown of 13/16 is 7-7-7-5 (almost the same ratio) The number 26 is cool too, because add one beat, and you've got the 3 cubed, subtract one beat and you've got 5 squared, so its versatile.

You can also get a 5/4 beat to sound more natural if you play the snare on the sixth 8th note of the bar. That places the snare hit in the middle of the bar, and actually makes for a beat that doesn't sound jumpy or skippy at all.

@AreaCode978 A lot of people have a different method. Some people feel very comfortable in other time signatures. Personally, I will often write a drum beat or guitar line and don't even realize until later what time signature it's in. Once I wrote a guitar line and figured out I was playing 5/4, 5/4, 2/4. Other people purposefully write a song in a different meter and then make a big deal about it (like the jazz song Take 5).

@AreaCode978 The situation depends on some factors. Sometimes people play things that are simply played in a different time, sometimes they want to make a beat/riff in a different time so then the timing comes first. Personally, I play a beat in 4/4 first and then sometime I'll think of an addition to the beat that makes it sound better and different timing. so it goes either way

If you have problems counting up to five (it can easily be), split into alternating 3 and 2 counts, which can add additional movement and slight accents. With this technique you also reach easily other odd counts, such as 11/8's and produce the right feeling (Take Five, btw).

Re differences between, say 3/4 and 6/8: There are some pretty well-entrenched conventions about time signatures with respect to typical accents and phrasing, but those conventions are broken just as often. Really, ANYTHING could be written in ANY time signature--phrases would just line up with bars unusually. Stravinsky did that kind of thing all the time, btw. Look at some of his scores while listening to the pieces.

The guideline for choosing what time signature to write something in should be, "What is most likely to get this played the way I want?" If you write something phrased in 4s in 3/4, it's likely to at least lead to time being wasted while musicians figure it out.

@AntiPirateSquad 5/7 would be a time signature. 5 "beats" in the measure, and one note of an eighth note septuplet grouping (in 4/4) gets one beat. 5:7 is a notation that we're going to play a quintuplet--a 5 note grouping, in the space where we'd usually play a septuplet (a 7 note grouping). The way to think of it would be a "5 on 7" polyrhythm. It could occur as quarter notes, eighth notes, sixteenth notes, even over a number of bars, and in any time signature.

@AntiPirateSquad In a bar of n/7, one of those pulses (that I just explained in the last post) would "get the beat". Then we'd have to figure out plain old quarters, half notes, etc. in relation to that. So for example, say we're in 4/7 and we want to play quarters. You could play 16ths relative to the n/7 pulse easy enough. Well, after the first quarter on the downbeat, the second quarter would occur on the "a (uh)" of 2--after 7 of the 16ths relative to the n/7 pulse.

I'm not the biggest fan of Yamaha, aside from their toms... but when you get that high up(I'd guess at least $2,500+) all brands make decent kits. It's the die cast rims here though, make the heads sound much better. -James'
