Musical Symbol Quarter Tone Flat Symbol Meaning
๐ณ (Unicode โMUSICAL SYMBOL QUARTER TONE FLATโ, U+1D133) represents a quarter-tone flat in musical notation. It is used when a note should be lowered by one quarter of a whole tone rather than by a full semitone. This makes it useful for microtonal compositions, where pitch steps may not match standard Western 12-tone equal temperament. In scores, the symbol is placed near the relevant note or staff position according to the engraving conventions youโre following. Because it is a specific Unicode musical character, itโs ideal for digital sheet music, notation mockups, and writing systems that need a consistent symbol.
