The pattern "quarter eighth eighth half" refers to a sequence of musical note durations. In this context, a quarter note is typically one beat, while an eighth note is half a beat. Thus, the pattern can be represented as: one quarter note (1 beat), followed by two eighth notes (0.5 beats each, totaling 1 beat), and then a half note (2 beats). Overall, this sequence sums to four beats, creating a rhythmic structure often used in music composition.
They are: 1/4, 1/8, 1/8 and 1/2 respectively
A beat is the basic rhythmic unit of music. For more information, ask another question (one could ask a musically knowledgeable person in the flesh, as this is very basic musical knowledge).A dotted quarter note and an eighth note are worth two (2) beats together, with hits (notes starting) on the downbeat (beat 1) and the "and" (second half) of beat 2.If you are counting half notes (each half of each beat), then a dotted quarter note would last for three counts. If counting aloud, it would last while one counts "1 + 2" (one-and-two). The eighth note would then last when you count the "and" or + of beat 2.The top two cards in the image show a dotted quarter note plus and eighth note.The first two bottom cards (when reading left to right) show a quarter note and pair of eighth notes. The quarter note and the first eighth note are tied (with orange).The tie means to hold tone duration (or not to strike/hit on an instrument again) for the added values of the tied notes. The quarter note and eighth note tied are worth 1.5 beats - the same as a dotted quarter note. Therefore, in regards to the note values:dotted quarter note + eighth note = quarter note tied with eighth note + eighth note
A half note or a quarter note has a stem but neither flags nor beams. if an eighth note or smaller comes at the beginning or end of a measure, next to a quarter note, it will be written with one or more flags. Eighth notes or smaller that come consecutively may be written with flags or beams.
semi quaver 0.25 beat(like a 7 with an extra line under the top stroke), quaver 0.5 beat (like a 7), crochet 1 beat (like a reverse z with a loop down the bottom), minim 2 beats(a little half box sitting on the 3rd line), semibreve 4 beats (a half box hanging from the 4th line)
a eighth note looks like a quarter note with its line facing down, and a dash connecting the dot and the line.
The rhythm pattern of quarter, eighth, eighth, half is typically represented as 1 beat (quarter) + 0.5 beat (eighth) + 0.5 beat (eighth) + 2 beats (half), totaling 4 beats. This pattern can be found in various musical styles, but it's commonly seen in genres like pop and jazz. Without specific options to choose from, it's difficult to identify a specific rhythm or piece that uses this exact pattern.

Sixteenth notes are these to the left. They are played 2x the speed that eighth notes are played.
An eighth note is typically half the duration of a quarter note, meaning it lasts for half a beat in common time signatures like 4/4. In musical notation, it is represented by a filled-in note head with a stem and one flag. Eighth notes can also be paired together, creating a single beam, which helps indicate a faster rhythmic passage.
Four quarter notes is equal to one whole note (the empty note head with no stem). One whole note is held for four beats. Four quarter noes is also equal to two half notes (the empty note head with a stem). Each half note is equal to two quarter notes. To put it another way: one half note is worth twice the value of a quarter note. Four quarter notes is also equal to eight eighth notes (the filled note heads with flags). Each eighth note is worth half of the value of one quarter note. Four quarter notes is also equal to sixteen sixteenth notes (filled note heads with two flags). Each sixteenth note is worth half of the value of the eighth note or one fourth of one quarter note. Those are the most common divisions of four quarter notes. You can also mix and match those divisions; for example, four quarter notes takes up the same amount of time as one half note plus one quarter note plus two eighth notes. There are hundreds of thousands of configurations that could rewrite the value of those four quarter notes, which is just one reason why there is so much variation in the types of music it is possible to write!
I Am into music a lot and i count them in 1,2,3 go, 1,2,3 go, 1,2,3 go etc. Try It xx The timing of music depends upon the time signature - 4/4 time has 4 beats to a measure; 3/4 time has three beats and so on. In 4/4 time, a quarter note gets 1 beat; a whole note gets 4.
A quarter note equals 1 beat. So an eighth note equals one half of a beat. This is assuming you are using 4/4 time. In 4/4 time there are 4 beats to a measure. A measure would have 4 quarter notes. If you use all eighth notes you would have 8 notes in a measure. Two eighth notes equal 1 quarter note which equals 1 beat.
If you mean half of a quarter note, then it looks the same as a quarter note but with a flag on the top of the stick.
