Update: although the info in this post is good to know this video shows you the proper way to enter 1/8th triplets and 1/4 note triplets into BIAB against a latin style song with 1/16th vertical lines in the editable notation window.

Thanks Noel,

Using you idea but since 1/4 note triplets fit into 2 beats then it works out to 2/3 = 0.6666666. But I count them at slower speeds like this.

When reading music at slower speeds I count in 1/8th note triplets as 1-trip-let 2-trip-let. So this is 1/3 = 0.3333333. The 1/4 note triplets land on every other 0.333333 which means every 0.666666 which is correct. It maps like this.

0.3333333 1 <<<<<<<<<<<<<first 1/4 note triplet
0.3333333 trip
0.3333333 let <<<<<<<<<<<<<second 1/4 note triplet
0.3333333 2
0.3333333 trip <<<<<<<<<<<<<third 1/4 note triplet
0.3333333 let

I did this in BIAB starting with the editable notation mode in swing triplets, created 3 pictures of this then added a 4th picture after changing it to (1/16th notes Latin). This 4 pictures are copied into 1 picture.
