Default Change default notes names



Is there a way to change the default note names to their enharmonic equivalents? I work much more in flat keys so to have every D# be an Eb would be nice. I looked in the configs but couldn't find anything.

If you key snap to Bb Minor, for example, all the accidentals will be flat. key snap to C# Major, and they all turn sharp. They seem to stay that way even after you uncheck the key snap box.

You could also use named notes mode and create/use a MIDI note name map file.

Weird I'm still only seeing sharp keys:


Am I missing something?

"Key snap" checkbox at the very bottom of the midi editor, check it and select a key which has flats. Note names and "from scale/to scale" in the transpose window should now show flats instead of sharps. You can now un-check key snap and enharmonic names should remain flat until you select a key with sharps.

Ah, got it. Never use that checkbox so I didn't know it was there. Thanks!
