Rhythm Simulation Guide - 4k/6k Notecharting

Updated the sentence about not using jacks limiting pattern choices. Hopefully this is an improvement.

As for the phrase length, here's an analogy:
"TC_Halogen's definition of a phrase was slightly off, so I clarified what I meant."
Each clause is a phrase, which is usually 4 measures. The whole sentence is usually the 8 measures you're talking about.

Musical example: here you can see that the melody doesn't really reach "completion" until the authentic cadence at the end, a total of 12 measures. However, this isn't a single phrase, it's more like a sentence. This excerpt is actually 3 four-measure phrases.

And one last note:

This is an ongoing project that will keep updating as more techniques and tricks are discovered, and there's always room for improvement through revising or expanding existing articles. So it'll never be "finished". It's sorta like the Wikipedia of notecharting.

Updated the added comment about staccato notes with mine usage.
