Well it is actually called a 16th note which is a note played for one sixteenth the duration of a whole note.

..........and you call it a semi-quaver.

...and even a demiquaver sometimes but I didn't want to get this too confusing, lol

One sixteenth of a whole note is called a semiquaver. A semiquaver is played for a sixteenth of the time taken for a whole notes (semibreve).

What is a sixteenth note?

1/4 beat


Does a sixteenth note get a one half of a beat?

Yes and no. Commonly, a quarter note gets one beat, an eighth note gets half, and a sixteenth note gets one fourth of a beat (4-4 time). Occasionally, a song will be in 4-8 or 2-8 time, then the quarter note gets two beats, the eighth note gets one, and the sixteenth note gets half a beat. That help?


How many beats does a quaver with tails have?

A quaver with one tail is an eighth beat, that is, an eighth of a whole note (semibreve), or half a standard beat (crotchet).A quaver with two tails is not a quaver at all, but a semiquaver, and is a sixteenth of a whole note.== ==


How many eighth notes equal 4 sixteenth notes?

it equals a quarter note because 2 sixteenth notes equal an eight note so 4 sixteenth notes would equal a quarter note.


The value of the note serves as the basis for the relative value of all the other notes?

I think the answer you're looking for is the whole note. The whole note (generally speaking although there are some exceptions) is worth 4 beats. The order of notes is: Whole note - 4 beats Half note- 2 beats Quarter note - 1 beat Eighth note - 1/2 a beat Sixteenth note - 1/4 of a beat 32nd note - 1/8 beat... and the list goes on.

What note gets 1 fourth a beat?

A semiquaver or a sixteenth note takes 1/4 beats according to the common convention that a quarter note takes one beat.


What are the different notes and rests values?

There are many kinds of notes and rests, each with a different amount of time. A quarter note generally denotes one beat, a half note two beats, a whole note four beats. An eighth note is half a beat, a sixteenth note is one-fourth of a beat. A dot at the end of a note adds one beat to the note (i.e. a dotted half note is three beats). This whole explanation is assuming you are in 2/4, 3/4, 4/4, 5/4, 6/4, etc. time.
