Click the first notehead and then hold down CTRL (Command on Mac) and click on the other notehead(s). TIP: You can select more than one note at a time to add the + or 0 marking.

The other option is to use a different notehead for open hi-hat and an x for closed hi-hat. Usually, if there is a closed sign, you don’t have to put it on every note, just after an open sign is used.

The most common is to use the articulations + for closed and o for open. There are two ways that open and closed hi-hat is typically notated. Here is the link to the quickstart video:

Sibelius: go to Help > Reference and read the section on Drum Maps. If you are new to drum maps, read about them in the documentation. Drum maps are needed since percussion instruments have multiple sounds and noteheads assigned to the same line or space in a part. In this post, I will go through the steps to notate open and closed hi-hat indications in drum set parts in Finale and Sibelius.īoth Finale and Sibelius use a drum map for percussion parts.
