oh.. now I see it' s an official term. I didn't even know that.

Peer,

Say it in Dutch. And then say "soule".

Ned,

Could you do a favor and post an example of those triplets? I just can't convert the description into action.

Thanks.

Watch Jude's neat version of 99 year Waltz. He does some beauties.

For example:

6-pull (1st note)
5-pull (2nd note)
5-push (3rd) note)

All in a one-beat span.

At 1/3 of a second, too short to post.

Thanks N, yeah, that's the start of it. Little buggers are everywhere with their more complex friends... -L-

Thanks!

Cool! So that's what it's called then. I do those a bit in any number of songs. Useful things they are.

Hah.. Cajun Accordion. It's only 10 buttons. How hard can it be...

Sheesh..

It just struck me - Think of singing "tiddledee da", the "tiddledee" a triplet and the "da" being a quarter note.
