1927 Grove's Dict. Music (ed. 3) II. 708/2 To avoid all uncertainty, authors frequently make use of the expression notes égales or notes inégales.

1954 Grove's Dict. Music (ed. 5) IV. 479/2 In common 4–4 time semi-quavers or quavers but not crotchets or minims are eligible as ‘notes inégales’.

1965 Times 9 July 16 Chief among these ‘errors’ is the convention of notes inégales, which decreed that with certain specified or understood exceptions, pairs of stepwise quavers (or, in some time-signatures, semiquavers) were to be played unevenly, the first note rather longer than the second.

1970 Sat. Rev. (U.S.) 31 Oct. 55 Mr. Weaver shows a commendable awareness of performance practice, even though scholars are not unanimous—namely the notes inégales in the finale of No. 3 where he adjusts the left hand to the triplet meter in the right.
