Five sixteenth notes beamed together-how to count them if they occupy one beat in 12 beats cycle?
devilhand -> RE: Five sixteenth notes beamed together (Aug. 20 2023 13:06:05)
Four, five, six and seven 16th notes -> one Eight 16th notes -> one, two
No need to count every 16th note. Never liked one and e a stuff. You have to feel the subdivision. Try to count seven 16th notes, you'll understand.

Can you post a picture so we can see? It could be a quintuplet. I remember some in flamenco text. One that comes to mind is a run of quintuplets in his soleares bronce gitano.
Edit: forgot to say Sabicas

I know this is septuplets but the vid is all very useful.

Of course it's a quintuplet (five 16th notes). Probably old school ras.

You have just admitted you can’t learn from Kai or my basic compas lectures (assuming the ones I posted links of regarding Solea, Fandango, Tango, etc). If you can’t understand basic chord strumming as described WITHOUT NOTATION, and right here you admit you don’t understand 16th note groupings (implying you are also a novice note note reader), then I am afraid you need to take a deep breath, slow down a bit with the free material which clearly won’t help you, and think about investing in some one on one private lessons. Any other route will likely result in more confusion and frustration at this point.

So rafapak you seem to have your answer then if you are happy with grant drums explanation?
rafapak -> RE: Five sixteenth notes beamed together (Aug. 20 2023 22:23:26)
at least i have basic understanding
devilhand -> RE: Five sixteenth notes beamed together (Aug. 20 2023 22:47:37)
You really want to count five 16th notes? Here you go at 4:55. Sounds funny. Maybe you'll like it.

i wouldn't worry about the quintuplets, just play them as four 16th. the difference is subtle anyway. the focus here is on the accents and the difference between the two strumming patterns.

He means you can’t split odd groupings evenly so feel them collectively (sloppily?[:D]) from one beat to the next. Even groupings (2,4,6,8, etc) can be divided in order to be more accurate tempo wise.

There really should be a 'sloppy' symbol in flamenco transcriptions :D

OP asked how to count five 16th notes. I replied he should count them as one. It's simple math. One refers to a quarter note. Due to the fact that four, five, six or seven 16th notes equal a quarter note, we can count them as one.
Take the most common four 16th notes for example: One, two is obviously a quarter note each. Overall 2 quarter notes (eight 16th notes). One, two, three, four is 4 quarter notes (sixteen 16th notes).
A quick question to see if you got what I mean. How about nine 16th notes? Can they have the same note value as a quarter note?

That doesn't help though does it.
He surely means how does he break those five notes down into equal parts within that beat. How does he feel them, how does that sound. Like the lo-la-bri-gi-da video.
You've basically just said you count one beat as...ermm... Well 1!

This is what he's asking.
No need to count them? How, at that stage, does he learn to feel the duration of each, if he's not gonna take the time to break that down and see how long each now lasts within that beat?
Assuming this is all new to rafapak.
But like Chester 😊 said... You can drop the e out and just play 4 16th notes. Are you comfortable with how you count /feel that rafa?
Anyway I feel this all may be like a foreign language to rafapak, I dunno. ? One on one lessons !!

It is such a frustrating read I am very close to revealing all the dirty subdivisions I learned from the marching drum line in college.[:D][:D] Truth is all those are still stuck in my head and are very accurate.
Here is a clean 4 against 3 pattern:pass the goddam butter. That is R/L…R-L..R…L-R…repeat. R=4, L=3

Welcome to my world 🌎- I’m fed up with videos in the luthiers section with the title “what do you think of this guitar?”
I don’t give a f¥ck about random guitar videos, that’s what I think. 😂

sorry, i'm not getting it..? what do you mean by "the most common four 16th notes"?

one, two WHAT?? [:D] how are they a quarter note, and what does that have to do with four 16th notes?

Ask your avatar. He has 4 fingers showing us 2 of them and counting one, two. He seems to know it.

playing 4 sixteenth notes instead of 5 would be much easier to count and understand

and here i thought our village idiot might be on to something.
devilhand is there a method to this madness or do you really think you can't divide a beat by odd numbers?

Sorry Chester. I was replying on my phone and couldn't see the original thread whilst typing it and couldn't recall who had suggested that!
If I switch pages to check it often deletes the message in writing.so just went with 'another member'
Edited! 😄

1,2,3,4,5?
Can you play a five stroke rajeo with your strumming hand starting on the beat and ending with index down on the next beat (if you need to you can count 1,2,3,4,5, 1)?
If the answer is "no", then learn to do that.
Can you play two consecutive five stroke rajeos with your strumming hand starting on two consecutive beats and ending with index down on the next beat (if you need to you can count 1,2,3,4,5, 1,2,3,4,5, 1)?
If the answer is "no", then learn to do that.
When you can do that easily, consistently and at will you won't need to be counting each individual stroke of each rajeo.
If you can do the second one 4 times in a row you can add chords with your fretting hand - F (leave the top string open), C, F and E, one set of 3 beats each.
Congratulations, you can now play a compás of Soleá, no need to count much at all. [:)]
Also, if you can do that then Ricardo's Soleá video any problem, in fact it is probably easier!
In case of doubt, it's this one:

Very often the rhythm executed first at 4:06 is how that 5 stroke rasgueado is executed if you slow the recording down. The reverse for the flamenco tremolo as well. The intent of course is the even 5 group.
