For example, if the staff uses the "Built In GM" map and a Snare Rim Shot is added, Finale displays "(38)" under MIDI Note, which is the Snare Drum note in the "Built In GM" map. Noteman says: If a Note Type in the layout is not present in the current Percussion MIDI Map, Finale attempts to assign a 'parent' note type for playback (indicated by a MIDI Note in parentheses).
Clicking OK in the Editor then assigns that Percussion MIDI Map to the staff. Click New… to open the Percussion MIDI Map Editor to edit or create a Percussion MIDI Map. If a staff uses different sounds in multiple layers, the layer selected in the Score Manager is also displayed here if this dialog box has been accessed by choosing Edit Percussion Layout from the Staff Tool context menu, Layer 1 is always displayed. Finale displays the staff for which you are editing the percussion layout, along with the Percussion MIDI Map assigned to the staff. You can use this layout for any staff in your score. You can use the layouts as they are, or customize them for your percussion staves. To make it easy for you to set up a percussion staff, percussion layouts are defined for staves automatically when you begin a new score with the Document Setup Wizard.
After defined here, when you enter, Finale knows to display it as an open or closed (depending on the note’s duration) X notehead above the top line of the staff, without any further action on your part. For example, you might follow the common convention of notating hi-hat cymbals with X noteheads that always appear above the top line of a staff. Finale automatically applies these settings whenever that note is entered on the staff. Each note definition you create or edit for a percussion instrument (such as a hi-hat, bass drum, snare drum, and so on) has a particular notehead shape and occupies a specific space or line on the staff. Use the Percussion Layout Designer dialog box to create or edit a layout for percussion notation. The Percussion Layout Selection dialog box appears.
