Middle C is the note that we write on the first ledger line below the treble staff.

Example 1

Middle C on treble staff.

Also, we can write middle C on the bass staff. We place it on the first ledger line above the staff.

Example 2

Middle C on bass clef.

The notes from examples 1 and 2 are the same, they are just written differently.

Example 3

Middle C on bass and treble staff.
