Robin Tims Posted November 13, 2023 Share Posted November 13, 2023 (edited) I use a system on more recently acquired anglo very similar that I have used for 2 decades with melodeon. That is with highlighter pens, green for push and pink for pull, marked on the dots themselves. That makes the choice of row for 'reversible' notes eg lower D pretty obvious at a glance. The ones that employ the accidental row eg reversed A and G on the left, get a 'special' orange mark with 'acc' scribbled underneath. Going back to a half forgotten tune it is simple to see the decisions made originally without starting all over again and also gives a quick view of 'smoothed out' versus 'lumpy' particularly with Irish tunes (plus likely air problems) Only rarely do I add a scribbled note about fingers using F1 for index and F4 for pinkie. This can all be on paper copies and if necessary scanned into 'forScore' on an iPad for use away from home where it is rapidly accessible. It is also simple to send a pdf copy to a music friend for some criticism or help, or sometimes maybe to help them. Yes I do get teased about my 'technicolour music', but it works for me. Edited November 13, 2023 by Robin Tims Correction of a 'note' error plus improved phrasing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kathryn Wheeler Posted November 13, 2023 Author Share Posted November 13, 2023 Yes it’s so handy to have something easy to pick up after a while, to remind yourself how you played a tricky or otherwise ambiguous passage! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
