"durational equivalent" name?

Post by dircknagy »

Hi all

What is this called? (see attached image)

I would call it a "rhythmic equivalent" or "durational equivalent", but i can't find it under these names in notation software manuals.

thanks!

Probably something close to "metric modulation," though in the case above it's showing that the half note remains the same tempo.
