Time Signature question

Time Signature question

2009-06-21 by acidmitch

Hey Ya'll,
I'm trying to find out what time sig I'm in.
I start with a standard 4/4, 16 step, 1 bar pattern and then shorten the amount of steps to 12 and change timebase to 16t.
This gives 2 beats with 6 steps each. What time sig have I changed to ?

hi,we call this 6/8 or 12/8 if we consider triplet(a quarter :3);then you can count two bar  ,or you consider sextolet in french,quarter (a beat:6)and you are two beat of sextolet...and you can call 2/24 but not usual...6/8 is the right sig, you count 123/223 also 323 423 for the 12/8 , or we call shuffle when you play 1.31.31.31 etc,or african style..use in many style ,like celtic too...excuse my english best regards
