On a Baritone are bass clef notes lower than the treble clef?
yes. think of it as trumpet plays treble cleff. (high pitch instruments and sounds) trombone plays bass cleff (lower notes and sounds) The difference between the cleffs is 3 half steps (I believe) Typically bass cleff notes are lower but not always. It depends if the two are the same part. If you are asking about the treble clef baritone vs. bass clef baritone issue in bands, there's a catch: treble clef baritone players read notes written in the treble clef but the sound they make is actually a major 9th (octave + 1 whole step) lower. (E.g. if a treble-clef baritone player sees a middle C on the treble clef, the note that is actually played is a B-flat on the 2nd line from the bottom of the bass clef.) So actually, a bass-clef baritone part and a treble-clef baritone part from the same piece of music are probably identical in sound. They're just written differently. The reason: trumpet players, who usually play in a B-flat transposition (sounds a step lower, their written C comes out B-flat), can switch over to baritone more easily if they continue to read the same clef and finger the notes the same way. (Same thing is true of the saxophones, who all read basically the same range of the treble clef, finger more or less the same, but come out with sounds in very different registers.) It's pretty common, at least in U.S. schools, for baritone players to have started out as trumpet players, and this practice facilitates the switch. Most of the low brass world, though, uses untransposed bass clef--what you see is what you hear. Baritone players are well advised to learn bass clef as soon as possible. Still, they need to understand how the transposed treble-clef parts work--it's part of the environment.

What clef is used for notes in the lower pitch ranges?
Bass clef.
Is A bass clef and a treble clef the same?
Clefs do not have 'sounds'. They are merely tools to indicate where on the musical stave notes are to be placed. However, the treble clef 'places' higher notes than the bass clef. If a clef is placed in the middle of the staff, then the notes that follow that clef are of that clef. For example, if the bass clef is placed on the treble staff, the notes that follow it are to be interpreted as "bass clef" notes and played using lower notes on the piano. The opposite is true if the treble clef is placed on the bass staff.
