Unicode input for time signatures in text frame

I want to input the time signature 6/8 (12/16) into a text frame.

I’m struggling with the unicode / music symbol input - the bracket is always placed too low. I used the U+E094 / U+E095 for this.

Also the placement of the numbers is weird. for 6/8 it works good, but how do I input the 12/8 signature? where do I place the timeSigCombNumerator?

can somebody help me please?

My recommendation is the font Musglyphs, it contains all kinds of music characters properly spaced to be used in a text environment.
