Topic: measures not working out right
I was playing around with 3/4 time the other day while i was between classes and i came up with a melody that sounded pretty good, but when I put it to paper and later to the TAB editor on the computer it would not work out right.
I know something is just that something is wrong but I don't know what.
Here is a screen-shot of it (I don't know how to attach it as a file)
It's for mandolin but that doesn't matter. its the counting that is askew.
What is the difference between 3, 8th notes and an 8th note triplet? do i need the triplet at the ends measures 1,3,& 5?
My girlfriend was the first to notice it being wrong, but she says they never used anything but 16th triplets when she played sax in band.
thanks
