In a musical piece, for which esecution, if we need to write on two o more tetragrams, the notes will be written in the same way for every tetragram.<br />
In other words, the "1" note will be written immediately under the first line <u>in every tenth</u>.<br />

In Armodue we have only a numeric clef, that show us the tenth:<br />
