I'm a beginner and when I'm listening to music and trying to work out drum time signatures, I realize that at some point, a quarter note beat sped up fast enough is an eighth note beat, etc. Is there any hard and fast rule about when you are listening (as opposed to reading) about how you determine this? I find there are times I can both count a rhythm in fast tempo quarter notes or slow tempo eighth notes.
