Smaller still are the thirty-second note (demisemiquaver)<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thirty-second_note>, sixty-fourth note (hemidemisemiquaver)<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sixty-fourth_note>, and hundred twenty-eighth note (semihemidemisemiquaver)<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hundred_twenty-eighth_note> . In the Talk page on the 128th note entry in Wikipedia ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk%3AHundred_twenty-eighth_note), there's this input: "The logical succession to a hundred twenty-eighth note would be a "two hundred fifty-sixth note," or a "demisemihemidemisemiquaver" in British/Classic terminology. However, these are exceptionally rare, if not non-existent, as no evidence exists to prove or disprove their existence. " So unofficially, I'd say 1/256th note = demisemihemidemisemiquaver Best regards, Olivier
