A dot beside the note adds one half of the note value to itself.
For instance, in 4/4 time a half note equals 2 beats, but with a dot beside the note it would become equal to 3 beats.
Another example is a whole note in 4/4 time. The whole note would be equal to 4 beats, but with a dot, it would become equal to 6 beats.
A first dot adds one half the duration of the given note. A second dot adds one quarter of the given note (or one half the value contributed by the first dot). A third dot adds one eighth of the value of the given note (or one half the value contributed by the second dot).
Adding a dot to a note increases its duration by half its value.
It means that length of the note is increased by one half For example: a semibreve is a whole note, and in 4/4 time or 6/4 time (for example) is worth 4 beats. The addition of a dot means that an extra two beats is added to its duration. A minim is worth two beats. The addition of a dot means it is worth three beats. A crotchet is worth one beat. The addition of a dot means it is worth one and a half beats (or 6 quavers).
The dot adds half the value of the note to the note. For example, let's say you have. Quarter note. Last time I checked, it was equal to one beat. When you add the dot, it takes half of the value from The note it's with and adds it to the note. So quarter note plus dot makes it 1.5 beats. Let's use a half note. Two beats, right. Add a dot. Take half of two. That's one. Add it back to two. You now have three beats, or a dotted half note.
It adds to the total duration of the note one half of whatever immediately precedes the dot.
A first dot adds one half the duration of the given note. A second dot adds one quarter of the given note (or one half the value contributed by the first dot). A third dot adds one eighth of the value of the given note (or one half the value contributed by the second dot).
Adding a dot to a note increases its duration by half its value.
A note with a dot in music notation means that the note's duration is increased by half of its original value.
the second dot adds one quarter of its value
The dot at the right of a half note makes the half note one beat longer. The dot makes the note to the left of the dot half of the note value longer. For example a quarter note dot is one and a half beats in 4/4 time.
Anything with a dot is increased by half of the note's value. So if a note is worth 2 beats and it has a dot, then the dot is 1 which then makes the dotted minim 3 beats.
The dot next to a note in music notation increases the note's duration by half of its original value.
The dot by the right of the note adds half of the notes value. E.g. A minim (a two beat note) with a dot (half of it = 1 beat) makes a three beat note.
A dot next to a note in music notation signifies that the note's duration is increased by half of its original value.
The dot on top of a musical note increases the note's duration by half of its original value. It is called a dot and it is a common notation in music to indicate rhythmic values.
A dot in music notation indicates that the note should be held for longer than its original value. It adds half of the note's value to its duration.
It means that length of the note is increased by one half For example: a semibreve is a whole note, and in 4/4 time or 6/4 time (for example) is worth 4 beats. The addition of a dot means that an extra two beats is added to its duration. A minim is worth two beats. The addition of a dot means it is worth three beats. A crotchet is worth one beat. The addition of a dot means it is worth one and a half beats (or 6 quavers).
