What is the time signature for 1 dotted whole note in a bar?

You would have to use 3,2 which is 3 minims (half notes) which is the equivalent of a dotted semi-breve (dotted whole note) otherwise the time signature would be 1,1.5 which wouldn't work.


How many beats are there in eighth note?

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.

A time signature is a pair of numbers that look like a fraction without the horizontal bar between the numbers. It tells you how long that particular bar or measure is.Time signatures are usually regular - i.e. there is only one for a piece. This means that all the bars or measures in a piece are the same length.The top number of a time signature tells you how many notes' worth the bar is; the bottom number tells you what type of note is being counted. A signature of 6/8, for example, tells you that each bar is worth six quavers or eighth notes.How do you know that the number 8 means eighth notes? Simple: just think of a cake divided up into halves, then quarters, then eighths and so on. The "cake" is the longest note in common use today, the "whole note" or "semibreve" in British English usage - which obviously needs reform. The bottom number of a time signature works like the bottom number of a fraction: 1 means a whole (the whole "cake", or the "whole note"), 2 means a half (a "half note", or a minim in British), a 4 means a quarter note and so on. Size of cake slice equates to length of note: each successively larger slice is twice as "long". You should thus be able to work out how, say, 6/8 is arrived at.Please note that one thing a time signature does not do is tell you how many beats there are in a bar. All it tells you is bar length. 6/8 and 3/4 actually add up to the same length: six eighths equal three quarters. However they're divided into two and three beats respectively. This is a matter of convention which I can't go into here. (You can illustrate the difference simply to yourself by counting "one and two and threeand" for 3/4, as opposed to "one and a two and a" for 6/8 (keep both at the same speed).

4/4. You can check what time signature a song uses by Googling the sheet music. The time signature will be at the beginning.


Do half notes and half rests have the same value?

Yes. In a typical 4/4 time signature, and all other time signatures, a half note and half rest have a two beat duration. Hence the "Half Note" name. In time signatures such as 3/4 you cannot use more beats than you have. For instance if you have a measure that reads: Quarter; Quarter; the next note cannot be a half. The only way to carry a quarter across a bar line is via a tie or slur.

How can I use a time signature calculator to determine the time signature of a musical piece?

To determine the time signature of a musical piece using a time signature calculator, you input the number of beats in a measure and the type of note that receives one beat. The calculator will then provide you with the correct time signature for the piece based on this information.

Use of normal double barline and final double barline?

Bar lines are placed on the musical staff to separate the divisions of time. Time is divided in groups of pulses as defined in the time signature.

Simple and how to use time signature?

Top number means how many beats in a measure and the bottom number means what note gets the beat. in 6/8 time there are 6 beats in a measure and the eighth note equals one beat.

What notes equal a 2 4 time signature?

Well you could fill a bar in 2/4 time in many different ways. You could use one minim or use two crotchets. You could also use combinations such as a crotchet followed by two quavers. To fill up a bar in the simplest way, I would use a minim or two crotchets.


Why do the English use crotchet and not quarter note?

The crotchet and quarter note are the exact same. The latter is derived from tempo: it fulfills a quarter value from a measure of 4/4 time signature. Neither one is incorrect or obscure.
