Hrm...I can try that.

Can I ask a different question?  Won't that just give a single drum 'sound' ?  I'm not totally clear on how this all works, but it seems to me that you wouldn't be able to specify different drums.  I"m actually not clear on how you'd normally do that...


Well, I'd guess you'd have a seperate staff for each drum type, and then only 'hit' it when you wanted that particular sound...same as with any other instrument.    I was thinking of a drum-set as a single instrument, as opposed to a collection of (similar) instruments.

Or, in a drum context, does every 'note' on the 'scale' map to a specific drum instrument?  I suppose that could work. 

Well, I'll have to give it a try.

Thanks!

I noticed something while looking at the source last weekend. If you
open up the staff properties and manually type in drums in the midi
instrument field the notes get written to the drum channel. I will do
something to make this more obvious in the gui and later allow manual
channel and program number.

Anyway to here the drums just manually type it in in the staff
properties.
