Labels for individual percussion instruments in a kit

Hi everyone

In a drum part with added percussion, there are some instruments that usually don’t need any further description, such as Bass Drum, Snare, Hi-Hat. However, for some instruments there are no “standards” so it’s not clear from context which instrument is meant.

In the example below, I added a Mark Tree that should be played at the end of the flow:

So far, I did not find a way to display the label of the instrument for just this note. Is there a way or should I just use a text and write “Mark Tree” there?

Thanks for your help.

You could use a percussion legend as this is the 5-line staff presentation.

Thank you @Lillie_Harris, that was exactly what I was looking for. For anyone finding this post, this is what the result looks like:

Would be good with percussion legend also for grid, and not only 5-line staff.
