used in the Ewe rhythm kadodo. The 24-pulse pattern crosses the barline, contradicting the meter with three sets of five strokes, across eight main beats (two measures of four main beats each). The three single strokes are muted. The kadodo bell pattern is an embellishment of three "slow" cross-beats spanning two measures, a type of macro "hemiola." The cross-rhythm is three-over-eight (3:8), or within the context of a single four-beat cycle (single measure), the ratio is 1.5:4. The three cross-beats are represented below as whole-notes for visual emphasis.
