2. In the Head pop-up menu, choose the shape of the note head for notes triggered by
this particular pitch.
A note must be assigned to a drum group to be displayed in a mapped staff style. If it’s
not, it won’t be visible.
3. In the Group pop-up menu, choose a drum group.
Some of the groups are predefined for the most commonly used drum sounds (Kick,
Snare, Hi-Hat, Toms, Cymbals, and so on).
Note: If you want to define a new drum group for another instrument sound (such as
tambourine), choose New Group from the pop-up menu, then double-click the entry to
name the new drum group.
4. Set the Rel. Pos. (Relative Position) parameter.
The Relative Position parameter assigns the note to a line in the staff. The note position
is relative to the top line of the staff. Integer values make the note fall on a line;
fractional values result in a note position between two lines.
Note: Positions can also be influenced in the Staff Style window, but this affects all
notes of a particular drum group.
These options allow you to have two different MIDI notes (different bass drum sounds,
for example) displayed in the same way in the score, or on the same line, but with
different note heads.
5. Create a new mapped staff style by choosing New > Mapped Style in the Staff Style
window, and inserting all staffs, voices, and drum groups as described above, and in
Logic Pro staff styles overview.
Staff section: Everything is identical to unmapped staff styles (with the exception of
the missing Transpose and Key parameters, which wouldn’t make sense here).
