What is a beat?

1, each bar contains two beats and three beats of a strong beat, which is called single beat. Common single beats are: 2/4, 3/4, 2/8, 3/8, 2/2, 2/3, etc. Among them, 2/4, 3/4 and 3/8 are the most commonly used in music.

2. It consists of single beats of the same type, and each bar contains two or more strong beats, which is called duplicate beats. Common polyphonic beats are: 6/4, 6/8, 9/8, 12/8, etc. Among them, 6/8 and 9/8 are the most commonly used in music.

3, mixed beat, as the name implies, it is not a single beat, but a beat composed of different types of beats. The so-called different categories mean that beats with the same denominator but different molecules appear in the same bar. It's called mixed shooting. This kind of beat is a beat with equal and unequal numbers of strengths and weaknesses in each bar, that is, a single beat in the same unit. When two beats and three beats are added together, for example, 2/4+3/4=5/4, then this 5/4 beat is a mixed beat.
