Stu -> 7:6 (Mar. 18 2008 23:26:34)

hey folks, what does this mean in notation??? 7:6

I'm familiar with 3 above notes for triplets and 6 for sextuplets etc but have just come across this with two numbers and was a little curious. Why is it not just written as 7?? also seen 10:8

Here's the particular group of notes.

_____7:6_____
--------------------
--------------------------------
---------2------2--------------
------3----3-------------------
----0--------0-----------------
--------------------------------
-3--------------3--------------

Hope that crude diagram makes sense.

Thanks

stu

I don't understand the tab, and I don't know for sure, but it probably means 7 notes played in the space of 6 or a "septuplet". 10:8 would mean 10 in the space of 8, or perhaps two groups of 5:4, which is a "quintuplet".

Ok, cool, so that seems pretty obvious then, but why not just put 7?

They could have, if it is a solid deliberate and even 7. More likely the transcriber realized notes were being squeezed in, probably there were more notes before or after grouped in 6's, so really the phrase might have been rushed 6's that allowed an extra note in. I have seen that a lot in Rock guitar transcriptions...I call it note cramming. Odd tuplet groupings that occur very deliberate often have a special type of phrasing like 2+2+3 for example =7. Just an idea.

If the phrasing is mostly in 4's, you may see "7:4". But going back to the other idea of note cramming I remember seeing things like "13:12 +" Meaning the phrase started like 12's then they rushed. Or "11:12 -" meaning they dragged and didn't make an even 12 group in time. THese things are easier to hear in a slowed down recording with drummer behind. Flamenco guitar solo, you have more room to make a decision with a transcription. I think just "7" is probably OK.

Ok. Thanks for your explanation Ricardo.
