It might be necessary to override the appearance of playing technique-specific noteheads in order to disambiguate the notes for one instrument from another if they share a staff position in five-line staff kit presentations.
Procedure
- In Setup mode, in the Players panel, expand the card of the player holding the kit whose playing technique-specific noteheads you want to override.
- In the kit instrument label, click the instrument menu and choose Edit Percussion Kit to open the Edit Percussion Kit dialog.
- Select the instrument whose noteheads you want to override.
- Click Edit Noteheads to open the Override Percussion Noteheads dialog.
- Click in the Notehead Override column for the appropriate playing technique, then select a new notehead type from the menu.
- Click OK to save your changes and close the dialog.
Result
The playing technique-specific notehead is overridden for the selected instrument in five-line staff kit presentations.
Note
This does not affect the appearance of playing technique-specific noteheads in grid and single-line instrument kit presentation types.
