Make sure to select the smallest note value used in the song. NOTE NAME Selects the type of the note name indicated at the left of the note in the notation from among the following three types. The settings here are available when the NOTE parameter in "Display the note name at the left of the note" step 1 is set to ON. A, B, C Note names are indicated as letters (C, D, E, F, G, A, B). FIXED DO Note names are indicated in solfeggio and differ depending on the selected language. The language is specified in LANGUAGE of the OWNER display (page 19).

As with "Fixed Do," the indication differs depending on the selected language. 3 Press the [8π] (OK) button to apply the setting. n Save the notation view settings The notation view settings can be saved as part of a Song (page 166).
