Writing Double Triplet

image

Not sure that that’s what it’s called, but I’m referring to the 4th beat in the measure. I managed to create the first triplet with the 16th notes but to make it with the second subdivision of the 4th beat is not working. Any ideas?

Thanks, Nicolas.

I think what the term you are after is “nested tuplets (triplets).”
I started by typing in the eighth-note triplet, and then, when I reached the second eighth of that triplet, I called for the second, sixteenth-note triplet; finally, after typing in the sixteenths, I canceled the first triplet and entered the final eighth/quarter, whatever.

Perfect thanks a lot @Derrek
It tuned out a simpler process than i made it out to be, I though the bigger Triplet was just over and second and Subdivision of the 4th beat turns out it’s for the entire 4th beat but because if the stupid notation software they sent me the score from, the “quasi improvisando” pushed the triplet lines…
