triplet with different lengths


Recommended Posts

This is an interesting question.   I am eager to see an answer to it

Today, during my own composing session, I am working with quintuplet eights in a 2/4 measure.  I want to simply subdivide the first 5h into 2 16th notes while maintaining the quintuplet.


How to notate? There are various ways - such as...

 

(5q 5q 5h 5h 5h 5h)

(5q_5q 5h 5h 5h 5h)

 

This seems "close" to what you seek:

(3q_3q_3q 3q 3h)

 

But, it is really not ideal from the perspective of notation.

 

Seems like a more detailed discussion would be interesting.
