Midinotate problem - notes continue to ring out when I press stop

In the updated versions, the drum tracks/staves noteheads have been replaced with percussion-related noteheads. The percussion staves are not truly pitched notes, but are called "pseudo pitch" because each "note" corresponds to a particular drum instrument rather than an audible note pitch. The "X" and "triangle" correspond to whether, for example, a notehead has an accidental or not. The "accidental" would be for a different drum instrument than the "natural" notehead.

This x/triangle notehead is only for drum instruments (channel 10), and for the five-line staff is x's and triangles. If you like having each instrument on a separate line (single line), you can use the "Staff/Split Drums" command, and then select which type of notehead you want for each single-line staff.

Hope this explains some of the differences you see. I'm also glad to hear that the newer product takes care of the stuck note problem.

ttfn,
Sherry
