keysguitar Posted August 23, 2010 Share Posted August 23, 2010 I just answered a question about notation in other thread and I find all these names very confusing, just take a look to this word: "semihemidemisemiquavers" come on... different words should be used instead keep adding pre-terms for the same "quaver" thing... thisquaver, thatquaver, herequaver, therequaver.... I use these: Redonda Blanca Negra Corchea SemiCorchea* Fusa SemiFusa* *ok, we use the "semi" thing too but at least it remains short. I'm from, .. below my avatar says Intresting, is this system Mexican, or Spanish? I'm assuming that Blanca is the Minmim, and Negra is the quarver... which makes a whole lot of sense when compared to either the american or british system, lol. Up with making sense, down with sticking with systems that don't make sense just because everyone uses them and is too lazy to switch! =D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SYS65 Posted August 23, 2010 Share Posted August 23, 2010 I don't know who invented it but is used in all spanish talking countries, (but wouldn't surprise me if someone tells me is different in Spain, because everything is different in Spain, I just downloaded some movies with Audio in spanish but from Spain, and I only get less that a half of what they say ). No, is like this: Redonda (means "Round") = Whole Blanca ("White") = Half Negra ("Black") = Quarter Corchea (no translation i think) = 8th Quaver SemiCorchea (no trans. ) = 16ths Fusa (no trans.) = 32th Semifusa (no trans) = 64th Garrapatea (no trans) = 128th (must ignore these names, cos are rarely used) Semiarrapatea (no trans) = 256th Anyone know how the Frenchies call them ?

Tokkemon Posted August 23, 2010 Share Posted August 23, 2010 French names for note values: Whole: ronde Half: blanche 1/4: noire 1/8: croche 1/16: double-croche 1/32: triple-croche 1/64: quadruple-croche Quite similar to the Spanish names actually.

composerorganist Posted September 6, 2010 Share Posted September 6, 2010 My fav is 16 note sextuplets against 16th note septuplets = fast Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JijGaat Posted September 6, 2010 Share Posted September 6, 2010 my favorite (and it really is!) are quarter notes in triads. Depending on the BPM ofcourse, I don't really care if it are eight notes or half notes in triads, as long as it gives that triad feeling. Love it :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bryla Posted September 8, 2010 Share Posted September 8, 2010 I voted for eight-note because I think it's such a nice value Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Audiosprite Posted September 20, 2010 Share Posted September 20, 2010 16th grace notes. Sometimes I'll write a whole piece only using those. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
