SORRY I don't understand how you count "one and" etc. A little diagram showing for the first line for exemple (4 beats) with under each note the detailed counting would widly help me . I don't understand for instance your words "halve each of the beats" Can you kindly explain ? With my kindest regards.
If for example the beats are crotchets/ quarter notes counting 1234 identifies each of the crotchet/ quarter note beats. Counting 1&2&3&4& means that the &’s identify the quavers/ eighth notes between each beat.
For the third example you gave would the same apply if the bottom number of time signature was a 16 instead of an 8? 16 would be your common denominator throughout the example? Or if you had 4/4, 5/8, 7/16 etc?
I have a piece in 2/4 which changes between 8th notes (2 per beat) and 8th note triplets (3 per beat). Do you have a tip for learning to count these changes accurately?

As long as you have a common denominator that runs between the changes.

Keep the pulse the same but divide the pulse in 2 or 3 as required.
Strawinsky.... this is my standard practice.

Stravinsky comes to mind...
Indeed

It's pretty decent, I suppose😢😢
