wat is a tuplet?

@Kabukibear 17 years ago

Replying to:
@Anonymous wat is a tuplet?

It's a way of showing a special kind of note duration. For example if you have two 8th notes next to each other they make up one beat, each one getting half of the beat. The next higher note duration are 16th notes, each one getting a quarter of a beat, so there are 4 of those that make up one beat. But what if you want something in between those two? What if you want 3 notes instead of 2 or 4? What if you want 5 notes in one beat? or 6? That's where tuplets come in.

For example, if you were to count 8th notes out loud you would say "1 and 2 and 3 and 4 and" which make 8 notes. If you were to count 8th note triplets (triplet meaning a grouping of 3 notes, you can also have quintuplets, sextuplets, etc.) you would count it "1-pul-let 2-pul-let 3-pul-let 4-pul-let," making sure that each part is equally spaced.

To sum it up it's a way of putting a group of notes in the space of one beat. You'll see it notated as a bracket over the specific notes with a number, telling you what kind of tuplet it is.

@Ninjabean17 17 years ago

This is a great song and looks to be a great tab. I just wish I could read guitar tabs.

@Ninjabean17 17 years ago

Actually, I just learned how to read tabs from this site, I just have troubles with my fingering and the tempo. I just can't keep up yet.

@Yuri 16 years ago

This is truly an amazing piece of work. I never knew the c chord held the beginning of this song.

@jworkman7 16 years ago

Hey, what do the asterisks on the D and G strings mean????????

@michi2002k2 15 years ago

Replying to:
@jworkman7 Hey, what do the asterisks on the D and G strings mean????????

It means you have play this part twice (there are asterisks for the begining and ending of this twice played part).

"small"-example:

E|-0-1-2-4-:-4-2-1:|

here you play the 4-2-1 part twice.

@Kamelot28 16 years ago

@madmanny 16 years ago

This is an awsome song, but with the old page layout there was an option to download the guitar pro tabs for this piece of art, does anyone either have a copy or point out where I can download it again please :D

It still on the site, its part of the .zip file, which includes the txt tab, the midi, the .gp5 file, and something else

@vbgmoney 16 years ago

great tab

@Tiori 15 years ago

Great tab. Thanks!

@SSHdude 15 years ago

What a great arrangement! This is the first tab that drew me to this website, which was probably a year ago. At that time I had a bit of trouble with this song, mainly due to bar chord F and fingerpicking. It has since been a year that I've been playing guitar, and I can play this song nicely now! Big thanks to archard for tabbing this.

Edit: I've noticed a few differences between the tab and the video. in the very first part of the song, the first half of the first line of the tab, the song has a few variations:

variation 1

E||---------------------0-----|
B||---1-----1-----3-----------|
G||------0-----0-----0-----0--|
D||---------------------------|
A||---3-----------3-----------|
E||---------------------------|

variation 2

E||---------------------0-----|
B||---1-----1-----3-----------|
G||------------------------0--|
D||------2-----2-----2--------|
A||---3-----------3-----------|
E||---------------------------|

and variation 3 which is the one used throughout the tab:

E||---------------------0-----|
B||---1-----------3-----------|
G||------0-----0-----0-----0--|
D||---------2-----------------|
A||---3-----------3-----------|
E||---------------------------|

The order he plays it seems to be 1232 3232 and
he continues to use variation 2 throughout the song
during the second repetition.
I could be wrong; I'm only a novice. Thought that I would point this out
for people who were confused as I was.

@BigHeadClan 12 years ago

Was easier to play then I thought, picked it up fairly quick.

@manccurt 11 years ago
