Most time signatures consist of two numerals, one stacked above the other: The lower numeral indicates the note value that the signature is counting. This number is always a power of 2 (unless the time signature is irrational), usually 2, 4 or 8, but less often 16 is also used, usually in Baroque music. 2 corresponds to the half note (minim), 4 to the quarter note (crotchet), 8 to the eighth ...
Such labeling requires the choice of a "first" note; hence scale-degree labels are not intrinsic to the scale itself, but rather to its modes. For example, if we choose A as tonic, then we can label the notes of the C major scale using A = 1, B = 2, C = 3, and so on. When we do so, we create a new scale called the A minor scale.

Note 20] The above are all relative measurements; no historical mass-measurement data is available to determine which of the prototypes has been most stable relative to an invariant of nature. There is the distinct possibility that all the prototypes gained mass over 100 years and that K21, K35, K40, and the IPK simply gained less than the others.
A three-note ligature followed by a succession of duple ligatures indicated mode 1; the reverse—a succession of duple ligatures ending with a ternary on—indicated mode 2; a single note followed by a series of ternary ligatures mean mode 3 and the reverse mode 4; uniform ternary ligatures signified mode 5, and a four-note ligature followed ...
Metric modulation: 2 half notes = 3 half notes or Play with eighth note subdivision for tempo/metre comparison. Thus if the two half notes in 4 4 time at a tempo of quarter note = 84 are made equivalent with three half notes at a new tempo, that tempo will be:
The skit, which has racked up nearly 1.5 million views on YouTube already, has been praised as one of SNL’s best at a time when ratings for the show have been in steady decline. “This skit is ...
4 is used so often that it is also called "common time", and it may be indicated with rather than numbers. Other frequently used time signatures are 3 4 (three beats per bar, with each beat being a quarter note); 2 4 (two beats per bar, with each beat being a quarter note); 6 8 (six beats per bar, with each beat being an eighth note) and 12
