Question:

How do you count 32nd notes?

well how do you?
I know that eight notes are 1+2+3+
16th notes are 1e+a2e+a
but what about 32 notes and 64th notes?

i'm just wondering cuz i have some music that i want to play but i have no clue how to count it.


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: Try this....
1 e + e + e + a
2 e + e + e + a
3 e + e + e + a
4 e + e + e + a

Ultimately what I ended up doing was saying

One E Andy Indiana
Two E Andy Indiana
Three E Andy Indiana
Four E Andy Indiana

As far as counting 64th, it is best not to subdivide so low. Just use a lower count at a higher speed and repeat it more often.

That should work for you. That is how I do it.
