Drum Notation

• Jan 17, 2018 - 21:49

I am having a bit of difficulty and I was wondering if you could help out. I would like to have the snare drum playing whilst the high hat is playing. The problem is that the stem direction goes up along with it despite me trying to change this in the edit drum-set. Do you know whether this is possible or not. Also, can you put a circle over the hi-hat to show that it is opened and a cross for it closing. If so, can you tell me how, please?
Many thanks,
Luke

Do you mean hi hat played with pedal or stick? And open or closed? There should be different notes for each of these. Some are in voice 1, others in voice 2, whereas snare is in voice 1, but that shouldn't be a problem. You can have two different notes in voice 1 at once - just enter them like any other chord. If you continue to have trouble, please attach your score and describe in more detail what you are trying to do, and someone will be able to help.
