Note names IN the note heads

Hi!

As a music teacher in a primary-school I love to create musical arrangements for my pupils. Many of these children do not need (nor want) to read notes. So for this type of pupil I usually type the note-names (letters) below the score, just like lyrics. 

Sometimes I use LOGIC-PRO (for Mac OS X) to create a score where the note-names are IN the noteheads. This works excellent for my pupils in school and it looks way cooler than letters below the notes (as lyrics). 

Another benefit is that the pupils keep looking at the appearance of the music-note, so it still learns that there is also a certain rhythm represented. (With letters below the notes they only focus on those letters).

I know there is this nice color-notes feature for schools. But I still would appreciate and use the notenames-in-noteheads feature.

Thanks!
Marius

  We're happy to announce that this feature is now available! 

  To add note names in the note heads, select a note or group of notes and open the "note" palette. From the "note" palette select "Note Name."

  I'd be very interested in that as well. I have many students who would benefit from this...

  Same here! I was just writing out some stuff for Boomwhackers; the different colors is great as it lines up with the Boomwhacker colors but being able to add the note names would be a huge help!

  I teach in a high school with many kids with special needs. I would also find this helpful.

  That would honestly be the only reason I will buy any software.

  That is exactly what I’m looking for.
