To be able to display different noteheads for different pitches in the Score Editor, you must first select a drum map.

Procedure

  1. In the Inspector for the track, open the Routing section.
  2. Open the Drum Maps pop-up menu, and select GM Map, for example.
    Note

    If you have created custom drum maps or imported them from an instrument, you can also select these drum maps.

Result

The drum map is assigned to the track. In the Drum Map Setup dialog, you can make further adjustments.

Note

If you select custom drum maps, the Score Editor only shows notation for pitches for which you set an Instrument Type in the Drum Map Setup dialog.

You can create different drum maps and assign them to different tracks in a project. Different drum maps can have different pitch settings.
