Does tempo affect the relative durations of the notes?
https://doi.org/10.1016/0006-8993(74)90985-8 [Crossref], [PubMed], [Web of Science ®], [Google Scholar]) observed that the relative durations of certain notes seemed to be affected by tempo variations. He concludes that the subjective temporal structure of the piece varies with tempo.
What BPM is 4/4 time?
Consider 4/4 time with a tempo marking of q = 60 (bpm) . This one is simple, there are sixty quarter notes per minute, and four quarter notes per measure.
What time signature is 120 BPM?
say I have a piece of music in 12/8 time signature at 120 bpm. There's 12 notes in a measure for simplicity sake. Then in the next measure, I'm repeating the previous measure of music, but now it's in 4/4 time signature with 8th note triplets at 120 bpm.
How does tempo affect rhythm?
In simple terms, tempo is how fast or slow a piece of music is performed, while rhythm is the placement of sounds in time, in a regular and repeated pattern. Tempo generally is measured as the number of beats per minute, where the beat is the basic measure of time in music.
