anyone?

Just found out what beaming is. Doesn't the software do that for you?
That's clearly 5/8, not 5/4
>>63536070
are you fucking retarded
>>63536070
This guy gets it. Also Beaming is fine.
General rule:
>>Up if it's at or below the middle line of the staff, Down if it's at or above the middle of the staff
>>63536076
Are you? Compare the rhythm with the beats. It should be 5/8.
>>63535839
The left hand is fine, in the right hand have two quavers then a dotted crotchet repeated.
>>63536091
but theres 10 quavers (or 8th notes) in that bar anon.
>>63536134
Time signatures are more than note values. No musician would count that measure in 5.
>>63536179
your wrong anon, music graduate fag here and theres no way thats 5/8. you also said:
>compare the rhythm with the beats.
that doesnt make sense
>>63536179
it could be 2 bars of of 5/8 but thats like saying you could have the 16 8th notes in a bar of 4/4. think about what youre saying.
Should I change it to 2 bars of eights or keep it?
>>63536277
i reckon 2 bars of 5/8 would make it far easier to read. and change the last crotchet in the RH to 2 8th notes tied together so the grouping is the same for both hands
>>63536277
>>63536287
looking again, messed u, no need to change the last crochet.
>>63536219
Please explain why it should be 5/4 and not two bars of 5/8
>>63536208
in 5/4, you end up with some weird ass polyrhythms, in 5/8, you get nice phrasings of 2 and 3
Does this part make sense? I changed the 5/4 to 2 5/8s
>>63536454
forgot to add the attachment
>>63536428
i agree it should be 2 bars of 5/8, thats what i suggested. at no point did you mention making it 2 bars. sorry for the misunderstanding if you meant this.
>>63536465
looks good anon.
This is how it would be beamed in 5/4
>>63536428
this
OP i reckon you shouldn't fuck around with polyrhythms yet if you're asking these sort of questions. it might be boring but become fluent wiht the more conventional time sigs first.
>>63535839
try not to beam or have a note going over the beats of the bar, if necessary use tied quavers

lol
