Help with custom instrument.xml file
I've made a custom instrument.xml, linked to it in preferences as my second instrument.xml file, and restarted Musescore. However, my one test percussion instrument "surdo" is not showing up. Can someone help me figure out why?
The first attached version includes surdo under the existing "unpitched-percussion" category. The second one creates a new category, "Brazilian Percussion". Neither one works. The new Brazilian category doesn't even show. The last file is the original drumset file I based the custom instrument files on.

first version:
line 1 char 1: shouldn't be a space; pls remove it.
_<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>second version:
line 1 char 1: shouldn't be a space; pls remove it.
_<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>lines 2 and 3: delete one of them;
That's all.
Indeed, as opening in a browser shows too:
error on line 1 at column 7: XML declaration allowed only at the start of the document
Thanks all. I've attached the working file. After I've added more Brazilian Instruments, I'll post it again.
