How can I tell which MIDI pitch number is triggered by the line of a single line staff?

Dorico

I’m using Dorico v5.1. When I look at the Play mode Percussion Editor I see the notes, but there’s no indication as to which pitch number is being played. I need to know this to set up my MIDI instrument properly. Any pointers are greatly appreciated.

I thought Dorico once had an option to show these note numbers, but I can no longer find a command to show them.

So you’re saying there’s a chance… :rofl:

Unfortunately, I think I was remembering Finale rather than Dorico. I suppose one can always hope that somewhere down the line…

The MIDI notes associated with the instrument played along with the playback technique needed to trigger it is present in the Percussion map.
For instance:

The MIDI note number is the first column of the table.
