Changing the playing techniques of notes on percussion kit staves
For notes on percussion kit staves that use playing technique-specific noteheads to indicate different playing techniques, you can change their playing techniques after they have been input by cycling through the available playing technique-specific noteheads.
These steps only apply to changing playing technique-specific noteheads.
Prerequisite
The percussion kit instruments whose playing techniques you want to change have at least two playing technique-specific noteheads defined in the Percussion Instrument Playing Techniques dialog.
Procedure
-
In Write mode, select the notes whose playing technique-specific notehead you want to change.
Note
The current playing technique is shown above the rhythmic grid if you select a single note. It is not shown if you select multiple notes.
-
Cycle through the available playing techniques for the selected instruments in any of the following ways:
-
Press Shift-Alt/Opt-Up Arrow to cycle upwards.
-
Press Shift-Alt/Opt-Down Arrow to cycle downwards.
-
Result
The playing techniques of the selected notes are changed. Their notehead design and/or position might be changed.
