How do I solve this problem.

You solve it by writing in the notes that you would want played, as the pianist is sliding up and down on the black or white notes. Look at the other examples of octuplets and such, where they are written out. You need to do the same thing, and hide the notes.

[Pat Fox]

If I understand you correctly, I write all the notes pertaining to the black keys. Then make then all invisible, is that correct.

Question 1. What note value do I use.

Question 2. How do I make then invisible.

[miker]

I would probably use 16ths, and then set them up as a tuplet: 9, 16ths in the space of 6, 16ths, as an example. Use whatever tuplet you require. Look at the rest of the score for examples.

You can hide them individually with the H key, or as a group with JW Change. But if you just want playback, there’s no need to hide them.

OK I will try it and if it doesn't work, I blame you.

By the way thanks for the tip on how to make the notes disappear.

Blame me. I've got broad shoulders!

Just for your information. i went with 17 64's in the place of 2 8's. 4 times all on the G clef. Since this is for my eyes only I did not try to hide or make it look like the sheet music that I have.

Thank you for your help and patience.

You're welcome. Glad it worked for you!
