Thanks for checking out my video on time signatures in music! Don't hesitate to ask me any questions in the comments and let me know what you think of my tutorial!
Where is your video on the pulse of music? I’m so confused about 2/2 being faster than 4/4 because I would think music where half notes get one beat would be slower. I heard some music earlier tonight I thought would be 4/2 because it was slow (what sounded like two beats for one beat to me) and four beats in a bar. Thank you! If you can point me in the direction of your pulse of music video I will watch it.
Please I would like you to do a video showing the difference of the time signatures let me know how it sounds like.. Even though am just seeing this video for the first time after 2years that you've posted it 😂
So what would be an orchestra conductor equivalent shredding on a musical instrument? In other words, what would be the most complicated conducting and what would look like?
those are the type of notes for example in 4/4 it's just 4 quarter notes or any combination of notes which their values add up to 4 quarter notes 6/8 is 6 eight notes eighth notes are just half a quarter note and they keep getting divided by 2
I see it as division of tempo when you think of 60 bpm it's one note per second but a metronome at 60 bpm will do 4 notes per second because it's in 4/4
Good informative video mate! Would like to see a video in which one can indetify those time signatures in a song. Give examples of odd time songs, and count them out to identity the time signature.
Omg thank you so much... i just started with piano again after 10 years break to give it another try and i didn't understand what the bottom number means... thats why i stopped it 10 years ago. i got so confused. You just needed some seconds to explain it. No other video helped me so much ❤
Just subscribed to your channel. You can recognize the mark of a really good teacher! One who can explain something that sounds difficult and make it easy..Thank you! 👏😍
It was just a thought on my wit that time signatures are to some extend related to time signature.Thankd for your response.Your good work has made me like your videos, If you can do a video on all types of Tempo and detail their explanation as you've done with this video,it will be helpful sir
I'm learning music in french but watch lessons in english as well and thank you for including images of what 8th notes quarter notes etc are because in french we just call them by color so it was so confusing to me
Thanks for the clarity of the explanation. While watching, I feel like I understand any piece and sentence of it - but then I'm left with the feeling that I'm still missing some crucial point. Maybe it's be cause I've a mathematical leaning brain with very little (if any) musical aptitude.
Thanks for your video. I remember some things from beginning band but you helped me understand. I have been practicing the bass guitar and the mandolin. Lately been watching drumming videos and trying to understand the timing used in drums.
It would be good to hear the sound of the different time signatures to really begin to understand. Can you play a 4/36 slowly in theory or is the beat always faster with shorter notes in the bar? Ok if I seem dense, not proud!
Great question! Technically you could play 4/36, or any /36 time sig slowly though I the implication is that its fast as its counted in semiquavers so smaller subdivisions. Not dense at all - its interesting!
Very well introductory video on time signatures. Just watched a stupid video of a drummer explaining the time signatures and i kid you not his demo of the common time signatures was quite comprehensive- sounded more like different beats smooshed together!
So, my band sent this video around today -- we certainly need the help. I understand the (mathematical) meanings of the various time signatures, but not the significance. Also, I'm about to watch the linked video, hopefully that one helps with that....
Minums, crochets, quavers, semi-quavers .. I have never heard these designations before! Learn something everyday .. I guess from the folks that gave us yards, feet, inches, pounds, tons! I wonder are there metric music time notations?
I have been writing music on guitar for a long time and never really gave time signature a thought. Now that I am writing things out, I realized I don't have a clue.

Yes, I think demonstrating the beats on the piano would have made the explanations much more helpful, though the explanations were great.@@George_D777

this is a good explanation, would be great to hear an example beat with each time signature to see (hear) the difference
Wild that a video about music wouldn't use music.
How long in seconds is a bar supposed to last though? A second? 2 seconds? Idk why I'm confused but I am.
I don't still get the bottom ones but I still appreciate this video
those are the type of notes
for example in 4/4 it's just 4 quarter notes or any combination of notes which their values add up to 4 quarter notes
6/8 is 6 eight notes
eighth notes are just half a quarter note
and they keep getting divided by 2
The bottom shows the pace of the bar. Like how fast the rythm is moving along.
I see it as division of tempo when you think of 60 bpm it's one note per second but a metronome at 60 bpm will do 4 notes per second because it's in 4/4
Thanks. I dont understand.
Can U shut up
Wow
Yeh me neither. To understand him, I think we have to know the musical alphabet
Me either lmao
Lol 😂😂
Your amazing man THIS is how music should be taught in theory classes. Earned yourself a sub 😎
Awesome - thanks Gabriel!
Eloy Casagrande's english has improved a lot.
Dude... I literally thought the same thing... Irish Eloy 😂😂
Hey can you make a video with the beats playing as well as we talk about them
The best explanation that I have ever seen. No one would/could ever explain this to me. I am very grateful, thank you
Glad it was helpful!
@@bodhran first time it ever made sense
@@garyneildenney1637 Can you explain the bottom number pls
The best explanation ever, before watching this viduo i was so confused about the down no., it was more clear when u gave couple of examples, thanku
Very glad it helped! Thanks for the kind words
Good informative video mate! Would like to see a video in which one can indetify those time signatures in a song. Give examples of odd time songs, and count them out to identity the time signature.
thank you so much for this video!! you were the only one who got me to understand what the bottom number means 😅🙏
Brilliantly explained, this has suddenly become clear. Thank you
Thank you sir, you really helped me alot with studying for exam
Glad to hear that! Hope it goes well!
Thank you so much for this! It makes so much more sense now!
Omg thank you so much... i just started with piano again after 10 years break to give it another try and i didn't understand what the bottom number means... thats why i stopped it 10 years ago. i got so confused. You just needed some seconds to explain it. No other video helped me so much ❤
You are very welcome! Wishing you the best with your next musical chapter :)
This is a very clear explanation, I have been struggling with it, thank you 😀
Wow I have got a better understanding of time signature, now I need examples
You have the clearest explanation. Thank you Sir!
You are welcome Ronaldo!
Thank u so much im starting to slightly understand now and this will help me when i play the piano😊❤
This is the best video on this that I've seen
So glad to hear its been helpful - more on the way!
Thank you so much man, finally I got this concept. After watching tons of videos only this is the one which explained this concept the best❤
Thanks your lesson is clear!
I finally understood time signatures because of this video thank you so much,dude now I can ace my test
This is the best video ever! I have never felt this reassured
I never understood this concept in my orchestra class until now. Thanks
Very well explained - thank you
Just subscribed to your channel. You can recognize the mark of a really good teacher! One who can explain something that sounds difficult and make it easy..Thank you!
👏😍
Wow, thank you, thats really kind of you to say Theresa! 🙏
this was a brilliant video. Probably the best one for explanations. Thank you for making the video
Great explanation Ruairi. Thank you!
An impressive lesson,❤kindly,explain how you can get to know the tempo of a song using time signature.
Tempo and time signature are different. Tempo is speed, time signature is number of beats.
It was just a thought on my wit that time signatures are to some extend related to time signature.Thankd for your response.Your good work has made me like your videos,
If you can do a video on all types of Tempo and detail their explanation as you've done with this video,it will be helpful sir
More great content, thank you Ruairi! I'll need to look up some video examples of some of these to fully understand them, I think.
Thanks for the kind words! Glad you found it a good starting point! R
I'm learning music in french but watch lessons in english as well and thank you for including images of what 8th notes quarter notes etc are because in french we just call them by color so it was so confusing to me
Great video. Very informative and helpful. Thankyou. Would love to hear more of your music theory videos. You are the best I have heard.👍❤
Thanks for the kind words. More to come!

Thank you very much Sir, I'm teaching Music in Elementary and your video is of great help for me.
Glad to hear that!
@@bodhran watching from Philippines !
Thank you so much this is so simplified
wow.this is perfect❤
I'm so glad you think so! Your support means a lot.

Thank you Daniele, and welcome! 🌟
Clear, concise and cogent ! Great video & thank you from New Zealand
Awesome - thanks Neville!
Thanks for your video. I remember some things from beginning band but you helped me understand.
I have been practicing the bass guitar and the mandolin.
Lately been watching drumming videos and trying to understand the timing used in drums.
Awesome Todd!
clear as mud
Great explanation. I might use this video to introduce time signatures to my high schoolers
Examples would’ve been great
What an amazing video! Thank you.
Glad you found it helpful!
thank you for enlighten me for what i am confused !
Best explanation, i always had issue with bottom number even understanding of staff notations😅
Great quick lesson!
Thank you so much! What an effective explanation!
Helpful tutorial. Thanks much.
im a grade 5 with a grade 6 book this video made me understand this more! thanks
Very helpful!
Wow, this was really helpful Ruairi, thank you so much. Struggling with the 5/8🤷🏼♂️😂
Thanks for the easy to understand explanation!!!
Clear as mud!
Tks🎉🎉🎉🎉 I learned a lot my music teacher is scary and I can't understand anything he teach😢😢😢 but I understand now🎉🎉🎉🎉
I love this helped me so much with my music homework UR THE GOAT OF MUSIC MATE
(Btw goat means greatest of all time)
🐐🤣
This is great - thank you for detailing this!
You're very welcome!
It was great
I actually understood it and had a perfect presentation 👌👍
Great explation, many thanks and congrats

thanks Ruairi - would love some simple counting out examples on this for a beginner. thx john NZ
Very well explained! Thanks so much for another awesome video! :)
Thanks Jeni!
Amazing lesson !
Thank you so much finnaly understand !
Thank you so much sir, God bless you so much
Very well introductory video on time signatures. Just watched a stupid video of a drummer explaining the time signatures and i kid you not his demo of the common time signatures was quite comprehensive- sounded more like different beats smooshed together!
Great! You should include waltz time, 3/4, which is common and can be difficult to understand.
So, my band sent this video around today -- we certainly need the help. I understand the (mathematical) meanings of the various time signatures, but not the significance.
Also, I'm about to watch the linked video, hopefully that one helps with that....
Love from India❤..thank you for lesson
Thanks for explaining 🙂 ☺️
9/10, would have been 10/10 with an example of each time signature.
Seven quavers, seven quasars... Oh! Thanks for giving the signature idea for my future song~! Seven Quasars!
Thank you very much my brother ! Can you explain key signature and how it is use in scale
Excellent thank-you
You are welcome!
Thank you so much sir🙏
Thanks now I understand 😊
Please make a video on what to know before a person can be able to compose songs
The theory is the Very good to understand but it will best if shows with practicals.
Wow well explained
Minums, crochets, quavers, semi-quavers .. I have never heard these designations before! Learn something everyday .. I guess from the folks that gave us yards, feet, inches, pounds, tons! I wonder are there metric music time notations?
this helped so much! thank you
Glad it helped Elan!
Thank you so much!
You're welcome!
Thanks well explained sir. It would be nice if u help us understand by either tapping or using an instrument so it made better sense. Thanks ❤
Gratitude 🤝🏾
right back to you 🙏
Just wow !
Thank you ❤❤
I thank you again ❤️
Amazing..
Thanks
Well done good explanation
Very helpful thanx😊
Oooooooooohhhhhh..... THANK YOU!!!!
You are welcome!
Very simple
0:57 I was waiting for the 27 dots!
Hahahaha! I considered it 🤓😂
good info... good class
Glad it was helpful!
I have been writing music on guitar for a long time and never really gave time signature a thought. Now that I am writing things out, I realized I don't have a clue.
we need to hear it. it's like learning to paint without seeing the colours.
Thank you
