1/8th notes

Below you will see an 1/8th note, a description of its anatomy and its corresponding rest.

An 1/8th note has the duration of 1/2 a beat. In a bar of 4/4 there can be eight 1/8th notes. Illustrated below is a diagram of how 1/8th notes correspond with whole notes, 1/2 notes and 1/4 notes.

1/8th Note Count

The 1/8th notes that are on the 1/4 note beats are on the beat.

The 1/8th notes that are in between the 1/4 note beats are off the beat .

Beaming

1/8th notes can be connected together. This is called beaming. In other words, they are connected by removing the flag and replacing it with a beam. Beaming notes does not affect the note duration, it just makes it visually easier to read. Only notes with flags can be beamed. Notes are usually beamed together to fit inside one beat, although they can be beamed to fit up to an entire bar.
