 Practical Guide to 18th Century Drumming - Lesson Two
Meter is defined as the basic recurrent rhythmical pattern of note values, accents, and beats per measure in music.
Conversely, if the meter is "compound" the upper number indicates the number of "divisions" of the beat occurring within a measure, while the bottom number indicates which note is the "division" of the beat.
Unlike simple time, the "subdivision of the beat" in compound time is the "beat" divided by six (or the "division" multiplied by two).

All meters where the lower number is both larger than, and divisible by 3 are compound (6, 9, 12, etc.).
All meters where the upper number is an even number that is not divisible by 3 (2, 4, 8, etc.) are simple.
In simple time the upper number is the number of beats and the lower number the value of the note that represents the beat.

 Metre (music) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Metre or meter is the measurement of a musical line into measures of stressed and unstressed "beats", indicated in Western music notation by a symbol called a time signature.
Metre is an entrainment, a representation of changing aspects of music as patterns of temporal invariance, allowing listeners to synchronize their perception, cognition, and behaviour with musical rhythms.
If each beat in a measure is divided into two parts, it is simple metre, and if divided into three it is compound.

Notice that a time signature in simple meter will always have a 2, 3, or 4 for the top number.
While beats in simple meter are divided into two notes, beats in compound meter are divided into three.
Since the simple triple pattern already belongs to 3/4 time, 6/8 is compound duple.

Simple Meter is presented as either duple, triple or quadruple simple meter.
While in simple meter signatures, the numerator represents the number of basic durations found within the measure, in compound meter signatures, the numerator represents the number of pulses (subdivisions of the basic duration) found within the measure.
The denominator of the simple meter signature represents the kind of note which will receive the full basic duration (one count or beat), in the compound meter signature the denominator represents the kind of note which will receive the pulse or the subdivision of the basic duration.

 Meter in Music
The meter of a piece of music is the arrangment of its rhythms in a repetitive pattern of strong and weak beats.
One of the most common examples of this is the use of triplets to add some compound meter to a piece that is mostly in a simple meter.
To learn to recognize meter, remember that (in most Western music) the beats and the subdivisions of beats are all equal and even.

 A Review of "Meter in English: A Critical Engagement"   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-25)
That is, meter must involve measuring or counting something that is inherent in the language, and must allow the hearer or reader to recognize the pattern.
That is, a poem in trochaic meter may allow a line in very strict iambic meter, which might also be called a trochaic line with anacrusis, or it may allow a dactylic foot provided the two unstressed syllables are actually pronounced as one: "barberry" in "Where the tangled barberry-bushes" ("Hiawatha," introduction, l.
In this poem, as in many in triple meter, the line-breaks run counter to the foot-divisions: between the last stress of the first line and the first stress of the second, there are the expected two unstressed syllables, but the line-break comes between them, indicating that they should belong to different feet.

 Meter -- MUSI 212
In jazz, and most other kinds of music, the most frequently used meter is duple meter, which means that the pulses are grouped into patterns of 2's or 4's, as is the case with "So What." Counting with these groups in mind, you can't help but hear and feel the rhythmic pulse.
For example, a piece that alternates triple and duple measures may form this pattern: 1-2-3, 1-2, 1-2-3, 1-2, 1-2-3, 1-2, which is typically thought of in the more simplified terms of a five-beat meter.
Meter is an open-ended resource and jazz musicians occasionally take a song conceived in one meter and play it another simply to make the performance more rhythmically interesting or challenging.

Traditionally, the Bransle simple and the Bransle double were written in duple meter, while the Bransle gay was written in triple meter.
However, the meter of the Bransle double fluctuates between triple and duple throughout the piece.
While retaining the expected triple meter in the castanets throughout (3/8), Stravinsky juxtaposes this 3/8 meter with irregular subdivisions such as 7/16 and 5/16 meters in the harp, flute, bassoon, clarinet and strings.

The length of the meter, or metric unit (usually corresponding with measure length), is divided almost exclusively into either two or three beats, being called duple meter and triple meter, respectively.
If each beat is further divided by two it is simple meter, if by three compound meter.
By comparison, a lot of Western classical music is fairly rhythmically simple; it stays in a simple meter such as 4/4 or 3/4 and makes little use of syncopation.
